Triumph Other description

Old school Triumph chopper.   Vintage bike,  not a reproduction.  Originally built in the 70's

* For those of you who have seen this bike on here before advertised with no title...  I finally got a title for it.  Its MN issue, clear and ready to go.   Has current registration through Feb of 2014.

 

1962 Triumph frame. (titled as a '62)

Engine is a 500cc TRW military unit.  1957 model year.    Remanufactured  Canadian army surplus engine. First started about 2 and a half years ago.  Has about 100 miles on it now.

4-speed transmission.   Leaks a little oil.  but its an old triumph and its a chopper so that's to be expected.

Nice, vintage,  Invader wheels.    old school tires.   No weather cracking.  Almost like new. 

Super Cool triangular headlights!

Vintage Amal carb

The metallic green color (called money) doesn't show well in the pics... there is more sparkle to it in person.   Fresh paint job 3 years ago.

 

Runs and drives nice. Surprisingly comfortable.

Front end recently cleaned, adjusted and lubed.   Great in town cruiser  ( not sure I would take it out on the interstate... )

Starts on the first kick if you do it right.

Charging system is hooked up and working.  6 volt, positive ground electrical system.

Cool bike!!!   There is not another one like it out there.  Gets tons of attention out on the road.

 

100% period correct 70's chopper with the exception of the modern ignition switch, brake light switch, and sealed battery.  Other than that its all genuine old school awesomeness!

I would recommend getting the pipes chromed to make it look even cooler.   Other than that ride it and enjoy it as is.

 

Please feel free to ask questions. I'll try to answer the best I can.

 

I have some room to store it for a while if the buyer is unable to pick it up right away.  I do ask that payment is taken care of first however.

The TT800 From Deus Ex Machina

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Deus Ex Machina, the surf/moto shop known for creating throwback, one-of-a-kind motorcycles, has released its latest work of art, the TT800. Paying tribute to the highly successful Triumph factory TT machines from the mid-1960s, Deus’ expert builder, Michael Woolaway, created the TT800 for a customer requesting a new, old Triumph. It sources a Kawasaki W650 bored out to 800cc with CR carbs, a custom TT inspired exhaust, custom chromoly racing frame, re-valved Öhlins forks, and a custom gusseted swing arm for more stability. A Beringer six-piston caliper front brake provides stopping power.
