British Bikes / 1971 Triumph Bonneville wheel rims
« on: March 18, 2014, 05:30:44 PM »
Hi,
Does anybody know what the wheel rim sizes are for a 1971 Triumph Bonneville, I know that they are 19" front & 18" rear, but are they WM2 or WM3? I am trying to order some replacements, but cannot find anything stamped on the old rims.
Regards, John

Sorry Mark2, I missed your response before now, I had thought of that, but I live in Spain & the MOT (ITV) Guys measure the wheels & tyres on each test. I have ordered some shorter rear shocks & am having the seat sculpted out a little, that should help, somebody suggested shortening the front springs, but that is a bit beyond my mechanical prowess. It's a bit late to grow a bit! Cheers, John

Hi there, This is my first time on a forum like this, so please bear with me if I get things wrong (bit of a technophobe). I recently bought on the internet a 1971 Triumph Bonneville T120, USA Spec. only to find that it is too tall for my tiny little legs, I thought that all oil in frame models were the same height..............wrong! I had a 1974 model & that fitted me OK. My mistake. Anyway, does anybody out there know of a successful & low cost method of lowering it a little. I am going to get the seat altered which should help, but a little bit more would be better.
Many thanks, John
