The 1981 Triumph Bonneville 750 T140 was model of the year, began with Engine KD28001. The TDC locating hole was itself relocated to its former position in front of the engine. The 750 T140 attempted to address dwindling sales with what had become "Limited Edition"-madness. Not that it was a bad thing, they turned out some pretty nice bikes. But, the problems Triumph was facing couldn't be solved by cobbling together yet another tarted up version of the same old tired 1937 design.
