The final phase of the Triumph twin's development began in 1972 with the first appearance of the new 750cc version of the Bonneville, the increase in bore size necessitating a new crankcase to accommodate the larger barrels. Other improvements included a new ten-stud cylinder head, triplex primary chain, stronger transmission, and a disc front brake. A five-speed gearbox, introduced on the preceding '650' Bonneville, was standard equipment on the '750'. Despite the age of the basic design and strong competition from Japanese and European manufacturers, the Bonnie remained for many years the UK's top-selling '750' and was voted Motor Cycle News 'Machine of the Year' in 1979. In 1977 Triumph introduced a special, limited edition Bonneville to celebrate Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's Silver Jubilee. This was basically the standard Bonnie enhanced by a red, white, and blue on silver finish; coach-lined cycle parts; and a chromed timing cover and primary chain case. 1,000 were produced for the United States market, 1,000 for the UK, and a further 400 for Commonwealth countries. Acquired by the current vendor in February 2011, this restored Jubilee Bonneville was last taxed for the road to the end of August 2014. The machine is offered with (part) old V5C and current V5C documents; an MoT certificate (expired April 2015); an owner's handbook; and a substantial quantity of invoices issued by marque specialists Supreme Motorcycles.
