This is a custom 1975 Bonneville. built in California as a "swing arm" chopper. It is a soft-tail that was built after the "sunset tripper". Build shop is un-verified but it is period and done correctly. It was ridden east n the early 80's and has been in New England since.
The motor was rebuilt less than 1k ago. but the seals on the motor need some attention from sitting. it drips some oil after warm up.
The chrome is nice as the tires. paint is great. This is a comfortable rider for 1 or 2 people and has a king/queen seat and rear pegs. The sissy bar is a cast Triumph unit which is very rare.
I have never seen a configuration like this and it is a great collectable and long distance rider. fantastic bike that only needs minor fiddling and you will be ready for summer/spring. If you down south ready to ride after minor maintenance.
Front caliper needs a rebuild. chain and sprockets are newer. It comes with a full set of clutches. the current ones are fine. I bought them to put in when I did the gaskets.
There is 4 feet of snow on the ground and the oil tank is empty. this is the only reason I'm selling. I'm into the bike for over $4k. I'll start the bidding at $2k to get things rolling. the motor is worth that.
The bike is located 50 miles north of Boston. Shipping is easy as I'm right off RT 95. Maine is a NO TITLE state so it will be sold with a bill of sale only. so bid accordingly

The serial number is CN 69416 which makes it a 1976 model built in March 1976. The engine is matching numbers. I listed the bike as a 1975 by mistake
Yes I will assist in any shipping assistance as well as overseas.
