 | | Through the last twenty-five years of the original company's life, the mainstay of the business was the Bonneville, a 650cc (later 750cc) twin-cylinder, four-stroke motorcycle, based on a design originally penned in 1937, shrouded in glory in the late fifties, when the world speed record was set with a heavily modified Triumph twin, at Bonneville. |
 | | Largely on the basis of styling (the Bonneville was always a beautiful bike) and because there wasn't anything better until Honda came along and dragged the motorcycle industry out of the Victorian era, The Bonnie kept Triumph afloat (but drifting) until 1983. |
 | | To be fair to the crew at Triumph, they've managed to replicate a lot of the feel of the old bike, at least in the comfort department. |
