For some time now, I have wanted an old British motorcycle.
Today, I bought one.
A 1980 Triumph Bonneville....
It was a near 400 mile round trip to collect the bike, which I found on and bought through e-Bay.
Only 20,000 miles, in great condition and the current owner was 90% way through restoring the bike.
I am told the engine is sound and it certainly looks in good condition.
I couldn't fire the engine up as the bike wiring isn't finished. I hope it will be as good as I was told....
The bike is currently missing a few parts, like exhaust pipes, a chain.....
But, those things do not matter, for when I have finished doing what I have planned for the bike, it might not look like it does now!
No, I am not going to say what I have in mind....
Think of it as a winter project bike and you will be right!
This may take some time....... I will keep you posted......
