Only 4 miles from new 1977 Triumph 744cc T140 Silver Jubilee Bonneville Registration no. not registered Frame no. T140V DP81767 Engine no. T140V DP81767 The final phase of the Triumph twin's development began in 1972 with the first appearance of the new 750cc version of the Bonneville, the increase in bore size necessitating a new crankcase to accommodate the larger barrels. Other improvements included a new ten-stud cylinder head, triplex primary chain, stronger transmission and a disc front brake. A five-speed gearbox, introduced on the preceding 650 Bonneville, was standard equipment on the 750. Despite the age of the basic design and strong competition from Japanese and European manufacturers, the Bonnie remained for many years the UK's top-selling 750. In 1977 Triumph introduced a special, limited edition Bonneville to celebrate HM Queen Elizabeth II's Silver Jubilee. This was basically the standard Bonnie enhanced by a red, white and blue on silver finish, coachlined cycle parts, and a chromed timing cover and primary chain case. Originally it was announced that 1,000 would be made for the UK market only, but Triumph America wanted to offer the model in the USA so the production run was extended by a further 1,000 machines. This unregistered example of one of the more collectible of later Bonnevilles has covered only four 'test' miles only from new and is offered with a V55/3, warranty booklet, original Triumph certificate and assorted other paperwork.
