Triumph Tiger description

1966 Triumph T100SC Desert Sled

Bike comes with the original 1966 California Title and Registration. Bike has matching Frame and Engine numbers. Bike was built as a desert sled, and runs great. I did not personally build the bike but here are the things done according to the previous owner:
Original Koni Shocks
XL350 front end ( longer travel, and better brake)
T140 gas tank
Bates style seat
Original Bud Ekins pipes
Mikuni Carburetor
Handmade Aluminum skidplate
Big Bore kit
T120TT rear Fender (Very Rare)
New Tires
Period correct Q-filter/aircleaner/airbox

Im sure there is more that I forgot. Please look at the photos carefully and let me know if you have any questions. I just had the transmission rebuilt due to a false neutral instead of 2nd gear.
Here is a list of the service that was done last week:
Repair/Clean Carburetor
Run Fuel line dual petcock to single
Repair Transmission No 2nd Gear
Clean out Debris Trans Case
Clean out Debris Primary Case
Fabricate Intake Manifold
Shift Forks (2) Shift Shaft & Camplate
Fuel line elbows (3)
New Lock Tab Trans Shaft
Oils
30W Primary Drive
80W Transmission

Bike runs very strong, and is a blast to ride. With a headlight and taillight this bike can be ridden on the street, it was never registered as an Off-Highway vehicle. It does leak quite a bit of oil out of the left side case (Primary oil). It will need a new seal.

Bike is sold AS-IS with no warranty or claims of any kind. This is a 30+ year old motorcycle, and you are responsible for having the bike inspected before purchase and or riding the bike. I require a $500 deposit within 24 hours of auction ending. Buyer is responsible for all shipping fee's, I will do my best to assist any way I can.

Not a fake police biker

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

So yesterday I was threading my way through London on Triumph's Tiger Explorer 1200 with panniers. Quite a wide load. Up ahead, I see a police biker and reckon on him being able to part the traffic enough for me to have an easier run down by the river.

MPG or BHP?

Thu, 05 Jan 2012

If you were a child of the seventies, you may remember Craig Vetter’s name from his previous work as a stylist (Triumph Hurricane) or his huge fairing business, Vetter Fairings.  Since then, the 69 year-old industrial designer has become obsessed by fuel consumption - or rather highlighting how poor motorcycles are delivering impressive figures. He originally ran a series of fuel challenges in the eighties and now the economy has taken a nose dive, he has resurrected the competition, figuring that the time is now right to highlight these issues again. According to Vetter, three of every four American gallons of petrol is imported – reason enough to devote his time to raising awareness.
