Hardly used set of 2013 Bonneville Hagons with damper adjusters for cheap off of eBay. Going on a 7fitty. Still in the original packaging...

FINALLY found a mostly original first-year 1959 Triumph Bonneville for less than the price of a new car.

Just needs a proper seat, an 8-bolt splayed-port head, and some front fender stays. Still considering whether and how to "paint" the front fender to match the rear.

Anyway, it's on a Keyboard Motorcycle Shippers truck about half way from Michigan to Texas.

single carb? bonny? did you just stumble upon that or have to pry it from a tight griP?

It is a matching numbers T120 Bonneville, but has a single carb head installed. The Bonnie heads were notorious for cracking.

It was an estate sale, so the grip was less than tight.

There is a Triumph records guy in the UK that believes it may be a very unique special ordered bike by the U.S.Navy where it is recorded as being dispatched to. At this point it is unknown if it was special ordered with a single carb head.

Being a Navy vet, I'm especially intrigued. I will PROBABLY restore it, but might be persuaded to simply clean it up and retain the full originality AND/OR sell it...

ah so, cool back story
hope you find more history onnit
besides the seat,and seeing it pop down the road, it will never look better than it does as is, in my hoe
i have an aftermarket full length seat from the 70's that might look perfect on that,depending on where your head is at about the thing
