Don't and never have owned one but have ridden them and do know its a great bike! pretty much bomb proof!!
I'm a big fan of Triumph and they way they have carried the brand through several generations of bikers! (so much history)
I'm still the proud owner of a 1966 Triumph Bonneville (less than 3000 miles on the clock from new) that sits at the side of my 1962 BSA Rocket Gold Star (under 2000 miles from new)
These two treasures sit in my garage back in the uk (presently living in Dubai) I have ridden both bikes on many occasions and love them dearly!! I always say when I purchased them it was an investment! I would rather sell my soul!!!!
I love all bikes, well nearly all bikes! but they all have something to offer!!!

Thanks Charlie,

My first bike was a 1962 BSA, my second a brand new 1969 Triumph 500 Daytona loved them both.  My older brother still his a 1966 BSA he purchased from a friend of mine in 1967.  Last time I saw it it was sitting in the corner next to his 1990 Fat Boy, neither one have many miles as he was  terrible rider.

I will know in 3 hours if this is mine, it was imported to the USA in 1991 and has never been titled here. Has right at 3,000 miles and has been in a climate controlled collection until recently.  Has been completely gone through, carbs, tires ignition etc and is ready to ride.  Keeping my fingers crossed.

Jim,
Glad to hear you are getting the bike. Now like you said the other evening time for a road trip. When do you have to move it? Not sure of all the details of my road trip yet, may be towing but will know after the next weekend. Talk to you then.

Sounds like you got yourself a great bike!
The next job on your list should be getting that 66 BSA from your brothers garage! ;)
Good luck and enjoy your riding, :2vrolijk_21:
