1973 Triumph Bonneville T140 750cc twin Motorcycle, absolutely like new, nothing spared, completely redone in and out, perfect from under the fenders & seat to everywhere on this classic.
5 speed, front disk, 2nd year of oil in frame, makes this year unique and desirable. Recites, tool kit & extra parts. 
Starts first time, every time and runs like the champ it is, Bonneville Salt Flats speed records, hence the "Bonneville". 
Complete ground up restoration on low original 6103 miles. Color is Striking Fire Red, Metallic Gold, Pin Stripe and clear coat.
Unique and Rare, as 1973 Triumph T140 was the best of the best of the classic Bonneville, as this was the last year of this style of classic yet now speed with Disc brake, and only the 2nd year in which Triumph went to oil in the frame to make room for the speed (1st year (1972) they put oil in fame it had few problems with foaming as the filler was on top of the engine, 2nd year (1973) was spot on with no problems as they moved the filler and the oil cavity to between the seat and tank. Plus 1973 was 1st year for front disc brakes and more shock/fork travel, so it's the most desirable and reliable year for this style. 
Very few of these because Triumph became part of BSA and labor strike at BSA forced Triumph to halt production part way into 1973 and lasting several years just as Triumph perfected this bike, so only few where produced and even less exported to US. Of course, production did resume, so parts are still available.
