Sounds as if you have a battery problem, not a charging problem. If the lights are ok wiht the engine running but the battery won't take a charge then either the connections to the battery are faulty or the battery is dead. May be some clues here: electrics

Engine number puzzle
Triumph T140V
I have just purchased a 1979 T140V imported from America to NZ back in 1991/2. It looks like a 1979 with eletronic ignition,MK11 Amals, Left gear shift and a rear disc brake with the caliper mounted on top. However the matching engine number and frame is T140VEH59733 which if the book is correct says it was built in May of 1973. Any ideas? Thankyou.
Auckland NZ

Something appears amiss. This site confirms your your assessment.
t140.com/serial/
 

Some photos . On closer inspection the numbers on the frame appear to have been rubbed even though the numbers match the engines.What are your thoughts now. Thanks Dave.

Triumph T140V 1979 NZ

Crankcase looks ok. Frame looks very dodgy indeed, I'm sad to say. Recommend you have a word to the seller, first off. Also, perhaps try to find out who imported it.

Unless you get some sort of satisfaction - full refund, partial refund and keep the bike... - you may find that you're very much out of pocket later on. Is the bike on NZ plates? Has it been approved by the authorities? Can you get a police number for it (that's what we used to call it in Oz when a bike had been stolen and recovered, and a new number stamped on it by the authorities).

Sorry to be the bearer of ill tidings. Ed.

P.S. The forks look to be extended. New stanchions should not be hard to find, and will restore the bike's fine handling and looks. After spending all day on the phone the seller says he knows nothing about the numbers. The importer sold his bike shop 10 years ago and now has a fish and chip shop and has no record of the bike. He assured me he would try and dig through his records and try to help out as far as import papers went.

It has never been vinned or registered in NZ but sat in a shed for some 17 years with a broken crank. As one door shuts another closes as they say.
Its a mystery to me if the crankcase is ok then its 1973 how does it come to have a left hand gear lever The good thing at this stage is the Police when I quizzed them on it have no record of it.
Cheers Dave.

subject: Thruxton Bonneville 1962
Email: PSigournay A T aol dot com
message: Hello,

My brother recently died and left his pride and joy, a Thruxton Bonneville. T120
Frame number is D117531 and engine the same.

It was all in pieces but I know he had all the parts. His son is now rebuilding. Due to family difficulties the carburettors are missing. Also it has an aluminium tank which I don't think was standard. There was a certificate issued garenteeing this bikes authenticity but his wfe destroyed this. I understand a copy can be issued when the bike has been restored and checked.
It was made 19th Feb 1962 and was first registered 26th April 1963

Can you advise me where I can obtain a full specification, or where I can obtain the carbs?

Your advice would be appreciated.

I can make some nice pictures of 1952 details, like the underslung pilot light, a D shaped vokes airfilter, it has an original installed sprung hub wheel and matching frame/enginenumbers, even the gearbox is the one originally assembled. The rims are chromed, because they simply are, but in 1952 they were painted silver with an amaranth red striping. I have covered over 20,000km since restoration without any major problems, some oil or petrol leaks being the worst trouble.

The story was, this bike and another bike, were prepaired at the factory to race at the Lake Elsinor CA. TT race for 68. His bike was the back-up, never saw action, and was sold. These bikes, as the story goes, were designated as factory racers by their white color with orange stripes down the center of the tank. Im trying to find out some history on these bikes, to validate the story out of curiosity, and maybe some photos as well.

Identifying ClassicTruimph?

This bike has numbers all over it. Where do I look for the vin. The back frame? Left Frame by triple tree? I was told it maybe a late 50's T120
OH

The numbers you're looking for will be stamped in, not cast in. If you'd care to send me what you find, I'll attempt identification.
 

The numbers that are stamped in the left side of the frame are: 118614. All the other numbers are either casted or stamped into the joints. The brake lever has 029562 (casted), The forks have 030026 (stamped), the back of frame by mtr compartment has 022270 (casted). Pics attached. I hope this is enough information.
 

Difficult to say for sure from the photo of the steering head, but those numbers look rather suspicious. I think that if you were to sand it back to bare metal you would find evidence of tampering. As you will see from this page - http://www.britishspares.com/41.php- the numbers on your frame do not correspond.

T120 Chopper
I was told this chopper was either a 1959 or a 1962. T120 D7562 Can you tell me what year it is, It is a pre-unit in a hardtail frame.
Florida

That engine number appears to be for a 1960 model. Ed. 1960?
T120 D7562
Can you tell me what part of the serial number makes it a 1960 as opposed to a 1962? The man I bought it from also has another chopper with a TR6 D2759 Number, What year is that motor?

I'm not sure that that number is for a TR6 - is it a unit engine of the mid to late 70s?
Check this page: http://www.britishspares.com/41.php

They are both pre-units. the T120 is a two downtube frame with a single Amal. The TR6 is in a single down tube frame with two mikunis. The TR6 has a bolt on hardtail and the T120 has a hardtail welded on.
Florida

Then the TR6 also has a 1960 engine number.

Hi my name is Simon R Potter and I live in Western Australia. I have a 1962 Pre-Unit Bonneville which I want to sell.

It has matching engine and frame numbers, T120 D16707. This Bonnie has been owned by me for over ten years and its time for a change!

In 1994 I stripped it to a bare frame to powder coat the frame but it looked so good all shiny I just couldn't put paint over it!, so I had it chromed. I ended up chroming the Triple trees, Engine plates, Swing arm, Brake stays, Side stand, Headlight brackets, Fork sliders. About the only parts that are not chromed are The Tank and Guards which are in super high gloss black acrylic.

The motor and gear box have been completely rebuilt with less than 3000klms since. It has had a few concessions to make it more usable e.g.. T140 12volt alt, tapered roller bearing steering, Central battery type oil tank {chromed}, Twin 28mm PHBH Delorto Carbies, Factory Triumph 2into1 Exhaust. This Bonnie has 220psi in each Cylinder and E4134 Cams so goes LOTS FASTER than when new! {hence unstable idle!}

I could continue to make up grades on this Bonnie, But I feel that I'm taking it in the wrong direction for a bike of its age,{if you want the the power/brakes/ suspension and handling of a Ducati you should buy one, not try and turn a 40 year old bonnie into one!}. It comes with spares and all the original parts that I have removed. price is ..{UK 9000 Pounds}.{$12000.U.S}.or best cash offer!

I will package and pay freight world wide! E-Mail me at elitespares at ii.net
