1959 Triumph Bonneville in New York, NY

This is a first year - edition of the Triumph Bonneville motorcycle - there would be many successors but 1959 is the first year they were introduced to the world. When it was introduced, the 1959 Triumph Bonneville 650 was one of, if not THE fastest motorcycle you could buy. It was a real hot rod! The new T120 designation is supposed to suggest that it could do 120 mph! Actual road tests done by motorcycle magazines of the day topped-out a box-stock '59 Bonnie at 108 mph. Not quite 120, but very fast for 1959! This was the only year with no letter designation after the T120.Mileage:1,489
