While trying to keep up with competition from Japan, in 1973 Triumph upgraded the vertical twin 650cc T120 Bonneville engine to the 750cc T140V. In the process, the tranny was upgraded from 4-speed to 5-speed.
Elliott's Triumph Bonneville Bobber uses a battery tucked away in the horseshoe oil tank.
Here's a detail view of the newly rebuilt 750 Tiger top end with the new NGK plug wires installed.
