After blowing the engine in my Royal last year that was the last straw, I have spent too much money, time, work and effort. I gave myself a cooling down period to make sure I did not want to fix it and after being contacted by someone thru my Royal website I decided to sell it AS IS. At the moment I cannot say who bought it but it has gone out of the country, well it was picked up February 19th 2016 and is heading out.
I will continue to maintain my website at http://yampyweb.com/royal/index.html , do research on the Royals and look for other owners. Keep me updated on your bikes thru the website.
Cheers……Mike.

The 1982 Royal Bonneville was made for Triumph Motorcycles America and as far as I have found only 1 batch off 50 were exported to the US.
They were slow sellers so TMA did not order any more.
I have re-imported one from California to Scotland as it is the rarest of all the Royals but unfortunately TMA did not request them to be marked with a special edition VIN plates like the other versions and they have normal sequentially numbered Meridan Triumph plates.

According to the article in R.C. there were only 50 of these bikes imported to the U.S. So, I suppose it was worth spending $10K restoring mine. Cheers…..
