Triumph Trophy description

I've owned this bike for 13 years and have done a lot of work to it including numerous electrical upgrades. Anyone familiar with Lucas electrical design will appreciate this. It's a stock TR6C (single carburetor) with no frame modifications and has matching engine and frame serial numbers. The stainless steel fenders were stock with this model. It has TT exhaust pipes with fiber glass wrapped baffles. The top end has 1,700 miles on it. A Boyer electronic ignition is installed and supported by an upgraded Wassell high output stator and rotor, a Podtronics regulator/rectifier and an AGM battery which is always kept on a battery tender. All of which means the system has plenty of juice even at low RPMs when just riding around town and supports the upgraded Cibie halogen head lamp. The carburetor has been bored out and re-sleeved with a stainless steel body and has been recently rebuilt. Recently tuned, starts on first kick. Comes with various spare parts including the chain guard and seat rail which are currently removed. *The exact milage on this bike is unknown. I've simply listed what the rebuilt top end has on it as ebay requires this to be listed.
