Triumph Bonneville description
1971 Triumph Bonneville T120R, It's a long story but I'll try to make it brief.. So the bike: I owned it 21 years ago and built it into a Sportster looking roadster. I didn't include a photo because frankly it's a bit embarrassing. The build was very nice but good grief! Looking back it was bloody ugly! Anyway, I sold it to a Yamaha dealer out of state (Whos dad used to be a Triumph dealer) and that was the end of that, or so I thought! Some 19 years later I get this bug to build another Triumph, this time a Drag Bobber but based on the old 1950's Thunderbirds nicknamed the Blackbirds by the American market. I look around on the net and all the usual holes for a donor bike for about 2 weeks, then, Low and behold, here comes my old Triumph on Craig's list, 1 mile down the street, as if.. offering itself up.. Or something. Very weird! About 18 months later and $thousands in parts and paint and the Blackbird is born. I really can't describe here the amount of work that went into this bike but the photos should lead you to believe, it's a lot! I have a brief build detail if you request it and I have 100 hi rez photos of the full build thread for the lucky buyer. Needless to say, everything is either brand new or completely refurbished. I wanted the bike to have a very low and stretched stance but resemble a true early 50's chop. Hence the hard tail, full rear fender, gator forks, large tank, and genuine 50's tank badges. You'll notice all the bad things about the 70's Triumphs are deleted in this build. Poor quality, and high/short ride stance, don't exist in this animal. Also, unlike most of the old Triumph builds I see, I lengthened and re-positioned the foot pegs and foot controls so you can actually sit on this thing and ride it without looking like a gorilla on a moped. With the total engine rebuild, 750 big bore kit, PWK carbs, and magnet trigger ignition, she fired up 3rd kick, and she runs lovely! (If not wee bit loud) You'll notice many of the custom brackets and the wheel hubs are drilled for that cool racing look, juxtaposed to the obvious old street bike roots. That's the look I was going for and every where it goes, I need at least an hour for the impending chat with some other biker that always ensues. (That's cool though) Why would I sell it you ask? Bloody good question, for me it's really about the design and the build, and there is always another project that beckons. So, I'd sooner someone out there, who maybe doesn't have the ability, or tools, or inclination, enjoy this bike rather than it sit in my garage. More photos on request and a video to come.. $11950 OBO, Please don't low ball me, It won't happen but I may trade! Thanks for looking C. 208 703 2735 208 939 9591 HM $11,950.00 2087032735
