The final phase of Triumph twin development began in 1972 with the first appearance of the new enlarged-to-750cc version of the Bonneville, the increase in bore size necessitating a new crankcase to accommodate the larger barrel. 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. This T140 Bonneville is offered in part-restored state for completion. Its mechanical condition is described as 'fair': the engine turning over and the gearbox selecting gears. All major components appear present and many parts are in primer, while numerous others are contained within a large trunk. There are no documents with this Lot, which is sold strictly as viewed. No reserve.
