1964 Triumph Bonneville
ORIGINAL PAINT, ORIGINAL TIRES, 1 KICK BIKE, FRESH MOTOR SERVICE
A FRIEND OF MINE HAS AN AMAZING COLLECTION OF ALL ORIGINAL PAINT MOTORCYCLES. HE HAD THIS BIKE ALONG WITH SEVERAL OTHER RARE TRIUMPHS AND I PURCHASED THE BIKE FROM HIM.
WHEN I BOUGHT IT, THE BIKE HAD NOT RUN FOR 4 YEARS. WE CLEANED THE POINTS AND SOME CONNECTIONS, PUT IN SOME RACE GAS AND IT FIRED UP ON 3 KICKS. WE THEN BROUGHT IT TO HUGH AT SIXTH STREET SPECIALS FOR SOME FURTHER TUNING. IT IS ONE OF THE BEST RUNNING BIKES I HAVE, INCLUDING COMPLETELY FRESH RESTORATIONS.
HUGH DID THE FOLLOWING ITEMS:
REMOVE CARBS AND CLEAN, REASSEMBLE AND TUNE
GO THROUGH AND CLEAN UP IGNITION WIRING
REPLACE POINT AND CONDENSER PLATE
REPLACE SPARK PLUGS WITH NEW UNITS
HUGH ALSO VERIFIED THAT THE BIKE HAS SOME RARE PERIOD PERFORMANCE PARTS ON IT
· ET CHARGING SYSTEM (NO BATTERY)
· TT PIPES
· LARGER TT CARBS (AMAL 389, DATE CODE 1965) AND TT AIRBOX
· TT ALUMINUM THROTTLE HOUSING
· TT KILL SWITCH
· C MODEL HEADLIGHT
WE JUST DID A COMPRESSION TEST ON THE BIKE AND GOT 210PSI ON BOTH CYLINDERS. THE BIKE RUNS LIKE A TOP AND USUALLY STARTS ON 1 OR 2 KICKS.
THE INSIDE OF THE TANK HAS NOT BEEN LINED AND IS SUPER SUPER CLEAN AND ORIGINAL. THE BIKE HAS ITS ORIGINAL FUEL LINES AND ORIGINAL DUNLOP K70 GOLD SEAL "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" TIRES.
I HAVE TESTED THE PAINT WITH MY PAINT METER AND IT METERS AS ORIGINAL (73 MICRONS + OR -.)
IT IS MATCHING NUMBERS. PLEASE SEE ALL PICS AND RIDING VIDEO BELOW. BIKE IS LOCATED AT MY SHOP IN NORTH WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN.
