This April 1961 registered Bonneville has been in long term ownership since 1988 and has recently been taken out of storage. The paintwork requires buffing as it was repainted in 1988. The motorcycle was upgraded with 9-stud T120R cylinder head, barrels and pistons and concentric Amal carburettors to suit. The motorcycle underwent a full restoration around 1986 and was then used very rarely for two years on dry days. It is fitted with a 140mph speedo and 10,000 rpm rev counter which have recently been restored.
