I have loved triumphs since I was 14, I recently purchased a 59 trophy and it has Turned into an obsession. Bought myself a 68 bonnie a couple weeks ago and work will begin as soon as the 59 is finished. I have to say that these are with out a doubt the coolest bikes ever (norton, BSA, and Triumph) Hopefully when the remodel is done on my house I can buy a new bonnie....... didn't want one before I started looking around on here at your guys bikes.

well the 68 was a complete basket case....with a hard tail jammer style frame and a cheesy 70's style springer front end. the factory frame and other body parts are in such bad shape there is no hope for them. I would love to restore it but I'll probably get a stock tank, old triumph front end with the springs on the forks, and do a suicide shift bobber with it. man....... why do people let these awesome bikes get in that kind of shape? :???:
