FOR SALE –
2008 Triumph Bonneville with 8,000 miles. Claret Red. It has never been down, never crashed, meticulously cared for and maintained. Always garage kept. There are absolutely no mechanical issues. This is a seriously beautiful, classic motorcycle in spectacular condition. This is also the last year of the carbureted Triumph Bonnevilles – very desirable! The front/rear tires were recently replaced with Pirelli Sport Demons, which have less than 1,000 miles on them. Motorcycle is located in Philadelphia, PA.
Custom modifications include Triumph knee pads, shortened rear fender, Lucas replica tail light, and progressive rear shocks.
$6200 obo. Willing to consider reasonable offers. No low-ball offers please. No Trades.
My local credit union has the title as I am still making payments on it. The buyer and I can go to the credit union together to pay off the remaining balance and transfer the title to the buyer. There will also be a legal Bill of Sale agreement to document the details of this transaction.
I would prefer to sell locally, but if the buyer needs the bike shipped, I will help with that. I've used Forward Air in the past with great results and excellent pricing.
FEATURES
Engine: The Bonneville’s air-cooled, parallel twin cylinder engine offers a cubic capacity of 865cc for excellent midrange torque. Both pistons rise and fall together via a 360° crankshaft firing interval so the classic character of a British twin-cylinder engine is retained, whilst twin balancer shafts provide civility and refinement. 90% of peak torque is maintained from around 2500rpm through to redline providing smooth, effortless acceleration throughout the five gears.
Fueling: Twin carburetors with throttle position sensor and electric carburetor heaters. Regular Gas.
Exhaust System: A pair of classically styled peashooter pipes handle the exhaust gases and enhance the retro feel of the bike.
Brakes: The braking set-up of single front 310mm disc and 255mm rear, both worked on by powerful twin-piston calipers, offers sensitivity, control and ample stopping power.
Seat: The Bonneville’s seat is generous with plenty of room for two and elegantly embossed with the Triumph logo.
Chassis: The Bonneville’s low seat height (30.5inches) and similarly low center of gravity, make it a manageable motorcycle that all riders – ranging from those with little experience to those with lots – can appreciate. The tubular steel double cradle frame and box-section swingarm are incredibly strong and the relaxed steering geometry allows composure at speed as well as ensuring the Bonnie needs only light input at the handlebars.
