I knew many of us were into Vettes, but motorcycles too! My 1969 Triumph Bonnevile was bought new and 41 years and 28,000 miles later it's one of those toys I'll never get rid of.....till death us do part. The tank has had a repaint and I rebuilt the engine with slightly lower compression ratio pistons and hardened valves and seats in the head, but otherwise it's bone stock.

Jim,

That is beautiful. Until I got older (tried holding off....just couldn't) I never had appreciation for the older bikes.

That's really cool that it's been restored.

Nice...

Mark
