The final phase of the Triumph twin's development began in 1972 with the first appearance of the new 750cc version of the Bonneville. Other improvements included a new ten-stud cylinder head, triplex primary chain, stronger transmission, and a disc front brake. A five-speed gearbox was standard equipment on the 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.
This example of one of the more collectible of later Bonnevilles was purchased new by the late owner via his motorcycle dealership in Jersey, Channel Islands. Unused since 1991, it is offered in need of re-commissioning and would respond well to detailing. Accompanying documentation includes a Triumph Certificate of Ownership, owner's handbook, V5C Registration Certificate, and an expired MoT (1991, 55 miles).
