I believe that is this Bike 1...Original Photograph, not RPPC and no known negative!
“In 1959, the T120, a tuned double carburetor version of the Triumph Tiger T110, came to be known as the Bonneville. As Triumph and other marques gained market share, Harley Davidson became aware that their 1-litre-plus motorcycles were not as sporty as modern riders would like, resulting in a decreasing share of the market. The Triumphs were models for a new, small Harley-Davidson as a result: the now-fabled Harley-Davidson Sportster, which started as Harley's version of a Triumph Bonneville. With its anachronistic V-twin, the Sportster was no match for the Bonneville, but it proved a solid competitor in US sales and eventually also in longevity. Wiki”
