1979 Triumph Bonneville Special

I’m 52 years old, and I’ve been riding since I was 16. I bought the Triumph Bonneville Special brand new in 1979 at Brooks Cyclery, in San Jose, CA. It has just a little over 24,000 original miles. It’s 99% original. I had to change the fuel petcocks because the originals were made of teflon and the lever was made of brass. It came stock with lester mags.

You have my permission to use the photos and text about my motorcycle in any way you want on your website, without compensation to me.

It is usually mounted on the inside of the door framework and operates on a push or pull principle. When you install the device, it converts your manual door lock to an automated lock.

Chain and Sprocket
by: Randal

This bike has so much torque that I have gone through three separate sprockets and chains. The teeth of the rear sprocket would break off, and the chain would stretch out of shape. The last couple of years I haven’t had this problem though, whether it is because of a better sprocket and chain or to my increased girth, time will tell.
