I had a 69 and it wasn't a good one. My previous Triumphs were great bikes. I got a lemon I guess. The pipes cracked at the header, and the paint on the tank faded. I still love the looks and over all ride and especially the best seat I've ever had on an around town bike. I have a friend that still has a 67 Bonny and I keep trying to get it. When he bought it he had never riden so i went to look at it with him. I took it for a test ride and after warming it up and going around the block, pulled a wheelie anyone would be proud of. He took it home that day and still loves it. It has been a good bike and the only issue has been electrical. I'd buy another one for sure.

My first was a '64 Bonneville, loved that bike, always ran but the alternator went west after about six months. Had a 69 and 73 Tridents, both of them were good bikes. My ex wife had a 73 Bonneville 750 that was a great bike to ride but had a string of motor trouble, quite likely because I was doing my own work though I have to admit.
