Which one of you guys is selling your beloved Bonneville? Aren't these 1968s "collectible"?

Not I!
Someday I might sell **one** of my '66's or trade one for a '67, but I will never, ever sell my '68. I'm the original owner and picked it up at the Meriden works during the summer of love: 1967. I was an 18 year old kid on top of the world with a new Triumph Bonneville, and managed to ride, drink and screw my way through the most of England south of Birmingham.

'68 or '69 bikes are often considered the paragon of Bonnevilles. The 68's still had stainless fenders and shrouded Girling shocks, but the 69's had improved camshaft and exhaust guide durability. I like the paint on the 66's; hence my two 2007 T100's are both tangerine and opal :>)
