I've never seen an anti-clockwise Smith's tacho! And I will say it, why the silver frame :-) A very pretty bike and IMO worth the money (although if I had it I would get the frame painted black.
Agree on the frame Ian , the anti-clock tachometer is correct as direct drive from the camshaft, until 1965 , then the ' right angle ' gearbox drive was adopted on the updated bikes in 1966.Engine sounds not in full ' tune ' to me !
@@ianbooth4255 Yes, I had a ' 71 T120R , OIF , and the instruments were the updated BSA style clockwise ones, I also had a '65 T120 , and it was like this one, there was a dissadvantage though as the cable could get knocked against the exhaust and melt the outer covering !.Must admit I liked this quirky feature , as the needles seemed to go in a symmetrical opposite directions , but I think it was a generally disliked feature and was changed for the ' 66 season , new style seat and tank badges , 12 volt , bigger front brake.
Nice bike! Bonney's in that condition were fetching more a few years ago! So what's going on? Are the guys who remember these dying off of hasn't anybody got the spare cash anymore?

Beautiful bike, but I just can't get my head around open bellmouths... I'd have to try and fit some sort of air filters on them...
That one is really special.
Another beautiful bike. I want them all LOL.

In full agreement on the issue of the chrome subframe, the reverse sweep tacho would be hard to get used to as well..

@@Roger.Coleman1949 I've never noticed the tacho cable coming straight off the camshaft before. Every day's a school day. My Bonnie was a 71.
