The USA had long been Triumph's most important export market, and to cater for local tastes T120R and T120C versions of the Bonneville were offered there, the former having a more raised handlebar when compared to its European counterpart while the latter catered for the American rider's passion for off-road motorcycling.
Helmut Lichtenberg bought this Bonneville circa 2000 (it is believed at the Stafford show) and sold it to Hans around 2007. Rebuilt by Helmut and very nicely presented, the machine is fitted with larger carburettors and an after-market seat.
The Triumph was previously registered in the UK as 'PUA 192D', and the VRN appears on the HPI database, albeit exported. Nevertheless, prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves with regard to this motorcycle's registration status prior to bidding. Re-registering the machine is the responsibility of the buyer. Accompanying documentation consist of a German Fahrzeugschein and Fahrzeugbrief (de-registered); expired TüV (MoT) certificate; and assorted correspondence.
