Triumph Bonneville & TR6 (Motorcycle Color History)

For many fans of British motorcycles, Triumph represents the epitome of two-wheel design and technology. This colorful history looks back at the marque's greatest twins: the Bonneville and TR6. Beginning with the introduction of the 650cc twin-carb engine in 1956 and continuing through the company's demise in 1983, this color history chronicles the bikes' development and production histories, with an emphasis on models from the 1960s and '70s, Triumph's undisputed peak. Applications for both road and track are examined, and a selection of archival photography and nearly 100 modern color shots detail restored Bonnies and Tigers.
