1973 Triumph Bonneville T140RV 5 Speed 750

1973 Triumph Bonneville T140 750 for your consideration. The odometer says 7966 but I cannot vouch for the accuracy. I purchased this bike in non running condition and have replaced the following; fluids, as hoses, hain, hain guard, hrottle clutch and air cables. I had it in to the Triumph dealership and they replaced the seals and respaced the seals on the top rockers. They wanted to rebuild the carbs for the cost of new ones so I just installed Amal premium carbs. The bike starts, ngine sounds good and shifts well through all gears. It isn't idling as well as it did before I replaced the carbs and is throwing a lot of black smoke through the exhaust. I am sure that someone who is much more mechanically inclined can rectify this or take it to a shop to fine tune. Gas tank has no dents and is clean on the interior however the paint is dull and faded and could use a fresh coat of paint. There is very little left to do with this classic to have it in fine condition. I will include the old carbs as well as some extra points. I need to sell this for a down payment on a new boat. Feel free to ask any questions as I am very transparent and wanting this bike to go to a good home. I will work with the shipping company of your choice.
