Sounds as if you have a battery problem, not
a charging problem. If the lights are ok wiht the engine running but the
battery won't take a charge then either the connections to the battery
are faulty or the battery is dead. May be some clues here: electrics.htm

brownclan1xnet.co.nz Engine number puzzle
Triumph T140V
I have just purchased a 1979 T140V imported from America to NZ back
in 1991/2. It looks like a 1979 with eletronic ignition,MK11 Amals, Left
gear shift and a rear disc brake with the caliper mounted on top. However
the matching engine number and frame is T140VEH59733 which if the book
is correct says it was built in May of 1973. Any ideas? Thankyou.
Auckland NZ
Some photos . On closer inspection the numbers on the frame appear
to have been rubbed even though the numbers match the engines.What are
your thoughts now. Thanks Dave.
Crankcase looks ok. Frame looks
very dodgy indeed, I'm sad to say. Recommend you have a word to the seller,
first off. Also, perhaps try to find out who imported it.
Unless you get some sort of satisfaction - full refund,
partial refund and keep the bike... - you may find that you're very much
out of pocket later on. Is the bike on NZ plates? Has it been approved
by the authorities? Can you get a police number for it (that's what we
used to call it in Oz when a bike had been stolen and recovered, and a
new number stamped on it by the authorities).
Sorry to be the bearer of ill tidings. Ed.
P.S. The forks look to be extended. New stanchions should
not be hard to find, and will restore the bike's fine handling and looks.
After spending all day on the phone the seller says he knows nothing about
the numbers. The importer sold his bike shop 10 years ago and now has a
fish and chip shop and has no record of the bike. He assured me he would
try and dig through his records and try to help out as far as import papers
went.
It has never been vinned or registered in NZ but sat in a shed for some
17 years with a broken crank. As one door shuts another closes as they
say.
Its a mystery to me if the crankcase is ok then its 1973 how does it
come to have a left hand gear lever The good thing at this stage is the
Police when I quizzed them on it have no record of it.
Cheers Dave.

My brother recently died and left his pride and joy, a Thruxton Bonneville.
T120
Frame number is D117531 and engine the same.
It was all in pieces but I know he had all the parts. His son is now
rebuilding. Due to family difficulties the carburettors are missing. Also
it has an aluminium tank which I don't think was standard. There was a
certificate issued garenteeing this bikes authenticity but his wfe destroyed
this. I understand a copy can be issued when the bike has been restored
and checked.
It was made 19th Feb 1962 and was first registered 26th April 1963
Can you advise me where I can obtain a full specification, or where
I can obtain the carbs?
Your advice would be appreciated.

TT Special 1967
Im trying to find some information on the above bike. My father purchased
this bike in early 68 at a So.CA. based dealer. The story was, this bike
and another bike, were prepaired at the factory to race at the Lake Elsinor
CA. TT race for 68. His bike was the back-up, never saw action, and was
sold. These bikes, as the story goes, were designated as factory racers
by their white color with orange stripes down the center of the tank. Im
trying to find out some history on these bikes, to validate the story out
of curiosity, and maybe some photos as well.

of a Triumph T20 Tiger Super Cub, this is for a restoration project. I
have the main paint colour details but need colour pictures of the coach
line details. The Motor Cycle Weekly 9th March 1967 issue 3325 Vol 118
had a road test feature, but not sure if it included any colour photos.
Any help you could provide would be most helpful in this restoration

kntfoustyahoo Identifying ClassicTruimph?
This bike has numbers all over it. Where do I look for the vin. The
back frame? Left Frame by triple tree? I was told it maybe a late 50's
T120
OH
The numbers you're looking for
will be stamped in, not cast in. If you'd care to send me what you find,
I'll attempt identification.
The numbers that are stamped in the left side of the frame are:
118614. All the other numbers are either casted or stamped into the joints.
The brake lever has 029562 (casted), The forks have 030026 (stamped), the
back of frame by mtr compartment has 022270 (casted). Pics attached. I
hope this is enough information.
Difficult to say for sure from
the photo of the steering head, but those numbers look rather suspicious.
I think that if you were to sand it back to bare metal you would find evidence
of tampering. As you will see from this page - http://www.britishspares.com/41.php-
the numbers on your frame do not correspond.

T120 Chopper
I was told this chopper was either a 1959 or a 1962. T120 D7562
Can you tell me what year it is, It is a pre-unit in a hardtail frame.
Florida
That engine number appears to
be for a 1960 model. Ed.
1960?
T120 D7562
Can you tell me what part of the serial number makes it a 1960 as opposed
to a 1962? The man I bought it from also has another chopper with a TR6
D2759 Number, What year is that motor?
I'm not sure that that number
is for a TR6 - is it a unit engine of the mid to late 70s?
Check this page: http://www.britishspares.com/41.php
They are both pre-units. the T120 is a two downtube frame with a single
Amal. The TR6 is in a single down tube frame with two mikunis. The TR6
has a bolt on hardtail and the T120 has a hardtail welded on.
Florida
Then the TR6 also has a 1960
engine number.

Hi my name is Simon R Potter and I live in Western Australia.
I have a 1962 Pre-Unit Bonneville which I want to sell.
It has matching engine and frame numbers, T120 D16707. This Bonnie
has been owned by me for over ten years and its time for a change!
In 1994 I stripped it to a bare frame to powder coat the frame but it
looked so good all shiny I just couldn't put paint over it!, so I had it
chromed. I ended up chroming the Triple trees, Engine plates, Swing
arm, Brake stays, Side stand, Headlight brackets, Fork sliders. About
the only parts that are not chromed are The Tank and Guards which are in
super high gloss black acrylic.
The motor and gear box have been completely rebuilt with less than 3000klms
since. It has had a few concessions to make it more usable e.g..
T140 12volt alt, tapered roller bearing steering, Central battery type
oil tank {chromed}, Twin 28mm PHBH Delorto Carbies, Factory Triumph 2into1
Exhaust. This Bonnie has 220psi in each Cylinder and E4134 Cams so
goes LOTS FASTER than when new! {hence unstable idle!}
I could continue to make up grades on this Bonnie, But I feel that I'm
taking it in the wrong direction for a bike of its age,{if you want the
the power/brakes/ suspension and handling of a Ducati you should buy one,
not try and turn a 40 year old bonnie into one!}. It comes with spares
and all the original parts that I have removed. price is ..{UK 9000 Pounds}.{$12000.U.S}.or
best cash offer!
I will package and pay freight world wide! E-Mail me at
