Thanks for the information.
The fins will give me something to look into.

Cheers for the reply.
No one I have asked about the number recognises it either.
Bike has only had a couple of owners, it came with a well used manual that someone scribbled the same number on, obviously quite some time ago.
The number itself may be peculiar, but does look original and is certainly not altered in any obvious way.
The person I bought it from knows a bit of its history and reckons it’s the original motor ?.
Also, T120 , 4 speed 750cc ?. As far as I know, 750s are T140 5 speed.

British Bikes / Triumph T120 engine number

Don’t know if anyone can help me with an engine number query on a T120 ?.
I have recently aquired a “ strike year “ Bonneville and am having a bit of confusion with it. It may be very pretty, but it’s odd !.
January 1974 registered ( M Reg )
Frame number starts T120, NG. so 1972
DVLA registered as 750 cc
Bike badged as 750cc
Right foot change 4 speed
Drum brakes
Engine number T120 LTT 750
The engine has a raised “ pad “ covered with Triumph stamps and T120 LTT 750 is clearly stamped over the top in large letters.
The engine also has the letter “ G “ stamped on each crank case where it bolts to the frame.
I am at a bit of a loss to identify the number, however, it’s a lovely bike, starts first kick and runs superb showing 12000 miles. It’s more of a puzzle than a problem. DVLA and HPI check out fine.
I would really appreciate any comments more knowledgable owners may have.
