1977 Triumph Bonneville 750cc Jubilee limited edition (of 1000) motorcycle, produced for the Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II in 1977, each with a certificate, of which two examples are present with this bike, perhaps suggesting two examples were originally purchased. This motorcycle has covered fewer than 10 miles (9.2 currently recorded) since new, having been bought originally as an investment for display in a window, it is believed to have never been ridden on the road though is fully road registered and the engine has been run regularly. The original owner S.J.Bradbury, a director of KD Thermoplastics kept the bike as an investment until 2015 at which point it was purchased by a friend, being taken for its first MOT in 2018, at which time it had new tyres, new front brake cylinder, new battery etc. On October 3rd 2018 it was purchased by our vendor with the idea of riding it but in the end he decided not to do so. A friend persuaded him to sell it but when he became unwell our vendor purchased it back, placing the logbook in his son's name with the idea of perhaps it being used by his son. Now he has reluctantly decided they're both unlikely to ride it so it is being offered for auction. The history file contains two certificates, original owner's handbook, V5c, various paperwork including receipt dated 3/10/2018 to our vendor, Haynes manual etc10%+VAT buyer's premium on this lot
