Triumph Bonneville 1968 Electric Start
The Triumph Bonneville is over 60 years old.
It is a mythical bike, lively and pleasant to ride, as long as the brakes and carburettors are in good condition.
With an electronic ignition, it's good......With an electric starter, it's better.
The magic button
What a pleasure to ride with a Triumph Bonneville.
Provided it starts properly cold… That it does not stall, or at least that it restarts easily hot.
Luckily the magic button is here!
And with it a real electric starter, indirect grip on the clutch bell.
You've been dreaming about it.
KB Style did.
Our Triumph Bonneville "Electric Start" also includes the modification of the primary transmission: the original chain is replaced by a notched belt.
More flexible… Quieter.
It is also possible to switch the selector to the left and the AR brake pedal to the right. If you want, even more, you might as well buy a Japanese...
The making of...
After the removal of the passenger footrest and the exhaust elbow, the primary transmission casing is removed.
It will not be reused.
The full alternator (rotor-stator) and the clutch bell are deposited.
The primary chain tender is permanently removed.
A light is practiced in the engine casing to allow the passage of the axis of the electric starter.
