ISBN: 978-1-84584-134-8 As the book limits itself to a single make, it is able to provide some
really useful specific detail on some of the points to look out for. It
offers a very useful summary of the relative merits of Bonnevilles throughout
the years of its manufacture. Top Bonneville restorer Hugh Brown of The
Bike Shed has helped with some of the advice, helping to ensure the book
is accurate throughout. The Vital Statistics section contains a handy
year by year list of the specification changes as well as the engine and
frame numbering system used right through from the first T120 in 1959
to the end of production in 1988.

As it says
on the cover, “Don’t buy a Bonneville without this book!”
This is a no-nonsense straightforward guide to buying a Bonnie. With the
current high prices being asked for Triumph Bonnevilles, it’s worth
taking all the advice you can get to make sure that you get value for
money (although with some Bonnies going for over £10,000, value
for money isn’t necessarily a priority for some buyers!).
But is it
a book for experienced classic bikers? Well, some of the information is
quite generic and may seem obvious to bikers of some experience, but there
are also a lot of hints, tips and reminders that are not necessarily so
apparent. Certainly, there was information in the book that was news to
me, and would definitely have been useful if I was considering a purchase
