Is there a website that denotes vin numbers as to bike specs, when, where, etc. that a particular Triumph was built?

British Bikes / 1974-Triumph Bonneville--Strange Animal
« on: March 22, 2009, 12:44:11 PM »
Good day to all, new here from USA. A question for anyone. I have a Bonneville, 650, titled in 1974. The most knowledgeable gentleman in my area that has dealt with British bikes most of his life, calls it a "strange animal". This is a T120V model, with a 1973 650 engine, set in a 1974, oil-in frame. My friend tells me that a Canada plant had the 650 engines left over, and the US wanted 650 Bonnevilles, so, they were set up and titled as 1974. My best understanding is that 1974 models were 750cc, this why my friend called it a strange animal and told me to hold on to it. I have now owned this bike for 23 years. I never doubted my friend,but, has anyone ever heard of this particular set-up before? :-?
