I have a 69, 650 Triumph Tiger, same color. The tank is a orange red from the sun bleaching the paint, fenders the same. I love this bike, all original, never touched. Bike is just the same condition as the one in the video. I live very near you in Pasadena, near the Rose Bowl. Maybe I’ll see you riding around that area some time.
The Triumph Bonneville and the Norton Commando closed out the "old era" with more style and character than the modern era has ever been able to muster, imho.
I'm sorry but look that the ones from the 50's and say that. scontent.fsac1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/311407880_6265545846795713_780301241366122400_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=6VdJ9StsJ9UAX-dqW9L&_nc_ht=scontent.fsac1-1.fna&oh=00_AT8mkka6y-ZzQAWrTA4J-7UgyDeqlzj8Eqenu6-mlkH7kg&oe=635CE9C3
no matter how many modern motorcycles will be made today if re-watch the video in 20 years from now I'm sure I will have the same grin on my face, and still, it will remain a head-turner.
those LA hills have arguably the best day riding in the US i ripped around that same area with my 5 speed converted 68 just like this one .... great times!
With the myriads of sites of rides out there... This has been by far the most virtual of an actual perspective of the riders view. Pristine Bonneville. Have a 68 Trophy Sports fully restored by Big D Cycle back in 2012, and look forward to using you recording technique. Thank's till your better paid. -gilpin 10-14-16
i enjoyed a 68 bonnie, but brits just didn't have the capital and management to stay ahead of the japanese. the italians were short on capital too, but ducati and emgee showed what could be done when you weren't afraid to innovate. even bmw found a way to stay afloat. something wrong with british society, i suspect.

I agree I say the Triumphs are handsome and the BSA's are beautiful

Looks like an original paint Bonnie. Thanks for the ride!
Nice Triumph 650!

anywhere in the Sierra Nevada foothills is great to ride.
I'm going to have to go out on my triumph now, lovely bike.
Finally someone that's not short shifting the hell out of a twin!
Think I am gonna sell my stuff and spend a few years on one of these. I could get real used to that exhaust note 👌

They say (Christian's) that god rides a harley.....but Jesus rides a triumph 😁
You rolled through every stop sign.
Try that in Australia and you'll get a ticket
You failed to stop at the stop sign. Nice bike tho.
