Hi, I have just bought a 1978 T140v with genuine 20,000kms and have ridden it 3 times. The last ride ended on a tow truck after the main fuse blew. 3 days later, I found a squished wire in the front brake clamp. Hopefully, it will prove to be more reliable from now on. Looking forward to more rides once the temperature gets below 35 degrees here in Queensland.
Welcome to a terrific forum, Fodbin, and a great Triumph community. Hope you have better luck with the T140v in the days to come.
I have been asked to post a photo of a"real" Bonneville.Hope you like it. This is a bike for riding not a show piece.
Fodbin Welcome to the family. That's a real Bonnie there. How is your petrol over there. If it has ethanol don't store the bike with petrol in the carbs as it will eat them. Thanks for sharing that picture. Regards Joe.
Fodbin That's great. My TSX s getting some rebuilding this winter as I intend to ride it more next year. Regards Joe.
