My name is Gary, I have two bikes and one on the way to being built, my main ride is a Harley Dyna Wideglide, also have a Yamaha 500 thumper, I am building a 1971 Triumph Bonneville T120R, this will be my second Bonneville, my first was when I was 16, a 1955 Tiger 110, fully worked with twin carbs. I have been riding for 58 years with more bikes than I can remember. One stands out a 1932 BSA single. that an older couple gave me when I was around 18, I rode it for around eighteen months. I was an apprentice at the time and building my T110, money was short and the BSA served me well. The Bonneville I am working on now is an import from the USA, it was used on the track racing, the engine is in great condition, just needs a bit of polish a paint job and more chrome bits. My partner rides also, she has a 750 Honda shadow, she is an Ex motorcross racer from New Zealand and is a great rider. Well that's about it, I think. Take care all and be safe. Gary

Photos will come when there is some sort of advancement on the build, now is the time for cleaning, inspection and polishing. The front forks are from a Yamaha, single disc brake, I am keeping them as a salute to the bikes early life as a racing bike.
