Triumph Other description

Ideal project...The bike is not running. I used it for daily transport in England for 20 years. 1963 was the first year of the Triumph unit engine. TR6SS with Bonneville head, BSA M20 frame, Yamaha 400 front end, Suzuki rear wheel and maybe an Ariel gas tank. The engine is strong, needs two Amal carbs, wiring inspected, cleaning etc. Capacitor ignition, so no battery. The tires are good, new Speedmaster MK11 on front. Brought to California from England, never registered so no title or plate. This is a great little rat bike, but could be spruced up, cosmetically. If you have any questions or need more detailed photos, just ask.
Sold as is, local pick up or cost of shipping to be paid and sorted out by buyer.

Filling a void with an RD350LC

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC.  It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching.  I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration.  Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience.  I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love.  And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor.  The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more.   I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy  next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects  out there so why not have a go yourself?
