Hi! This is my first post on the forum, hello everybody! I just got a new (to me) 2016 T120 Black w/ the gunmetal gas tank! Bike is awesome!!! Just wanted to check on a few things, as I am very particular about my cars/bikes. The bike appears to have a slightly rough idle, and maybe...

During the Southern California Timing Association’s Bonneville Speed Week, motels nearby are expensive and fully booked. Which leaves campgrounds. And I hate carrying camping gear on a motorcycle. When I see those BMW earth-roamer types with all the gear piled up over their heads I think, “Oh...

Hey friends, I'm a new rider purchasing his first bike. It is a 2011 Bonneville T100. I'm purchasing through an organization called IMotorsports Inc, a company just outside of Chicago. The bike looks pretty good from the photos online, and I go in to see it and possibly negotiate for its...

Hello, I am Triumph owner and fan of the motorcycles past and present. We have four Triumph motorcycles in our family. 2014 Daytona, 2017 Trophy SE, 1970 Bonneville T120R, and last but not least a 1976 Bonneville T140V. We are in the process of restoring both the 1970 and 1976 motorcycles and...

Hi everyone, BlueKraut here When i was a lad, many years ago, my first bike was a BSA C15. I bought it for 30 pounds sterling in 1970! My next bike was my wonderful Triumph Tiger 90 which I rode for 6 years until one of the cylinders split in 2!! Since then I have been on 4 wheels :-( Now that I...

I don't know a lot about this edition of the Bonneville, nor do I know the year of production, though I think it is less than 10 years ago. I also don't know if the metal parts were blacked out before or after purchase. This good-looking bike belongs to the friend of a neighbor of mine. The rack...

I spent my Sunday afternoon on the new to me 2016 Bonneville after upgrading from my "American V twin". It was the most social ride that I have ever had. Everywhere I stopped, people were coming up to tell me about the BSA or Norton that they used to ride and admiring the looks of the...

Hey folks! I have been looking into some aftermarket exhaust pipes, but I still like the way the original stock peashooters look on those bikes. I am just wondering if anybody knows if and how I can adjust the stock mufflers to be just a little bit louder. That's pretty much all I'm looking...

On a suspension thread, I indirectly commented about the importance of proper wheel alignment. Here's how I do it. (Applicable to all 790cc & 865cc twins) First off, in most cases, the stamped alignment marks on the stock rear axle adjusters are off enough to affect the handling of the bike...

Howdy all. Some of you may know me already. I own & operate an aftermarket Triumph parts business located in SE Michigan. Rest assured, I'm not here to turn this forum into my own private advertisement. But as with other forums, I hope to be able to share my experience from the last 16+...

I've been riding off and on for about 60 years, bug got into vintage Triumphs in 2001. I like to work on them and restore them as much as riding them. Great fun! I've got a '67 Bonneville I restored a few years back and I broke down and bought a 2008 Hinkley T100 a few years ago. The best of...

Hi all, I'm pretty sure this topic has been covered before, but darned if I can find any posts now, so forgive me if I'm posting a-new. I love my 2014 Bonneville and ride whenever I can, but the pain in my right thumb which extends around to the heel of the palm, winds up making my rides shorter...

Hey everyone, I wanted to play around with the handlebars the other day (reverse it, move it back and forward) But i couldn't even loosen the stock clamp. the allen heads is 6mm but i can't remove them, they're either tight as anything or they sealed it with something. Anyone else have this...

Hi all. We're new to this forum and have recently started looking into the great Bonneville. We have seen the "Bonnie" Development of the Triumph Bonneville book which looks to be good but before buying we wondered if other people would recommend it or if there are any that they think are...

Finally got the Bonneville out to go for a ride and when I went to kick it over I found two problems. 1. The clutch plates are frozen. Apparently 6 months of sitting was too much loneliness for them and they bonded. Not the end of the world. Take the clutch apart and separate them. 2. The kick...
