1970 Triumph TR6 Custom built bobber. Matching numbers clear title in my name Motor: Completely stripped down for inspection and rebuild. Parts replaced: sludge tube completely cleaned out ,crankshaft bearings in both cases , lower rod bearings {still stock size} upper rod piston pin bushings , .040 over pistons fresh bore job correctly crosshatched with hastings rings, complete valve job, re-surfaced tappets, transmission original parts all in good condition new bearings for layshaft and mainshaft, inner trans cover new bearings, shifts fine, primary components were all in good shape new final drive sprocket, all seals throughout.

Tri-Spark electronic ignition { strobe timed} new lucas style 6 V coils,original Webco points cover , Clay Cobb sidedraft intake manifold with 32 MM Mikuni carb, L C Fab carb top, K&N air filter. 60s C model high left exhaust pipes with no baffles, Anti-Gravity 4 cell lithium battery, 3 position key switch , new kicker and shifter levers , K&N crankcase breather filter, major engine components have been vaporblasted, a common cleaning practice used more in England than in the US including the crankcases , inner trans cover, cylinder head and rocker boxes, all of the vaporblasted parts were thoroughly washed several times before starting the engine re-build. I do not believe in glass beading aluminum engine parts as it leaves a less than desirable finish and is hard on the aluminum , with vaporblasting it leaves a very nice finish that is resistant to staining . The motor has approximately 300 miles on it since being built. Chassis : stock front frame section with a 2” stretch no drop David Bird looped hardtail, rebuilt Triumph front forks with all new bushings, springs, seal holders and seals , powdercoated lower legs and triple trees, the top tree is from a pre-unit with no fork lock and built in 1” risers, Biltwell tracker bars , Halogen headlight , Barnett levers , all new cables , front wheel has the smaller dual leading shoe hub with re-plated stock spokes, british made chrome rim Dunlop K-70 3.25 19” tire , stock rear hub with sealed bearings re-plated spokes and stainless rim Dunlop K-70 4.00 18” tire , new british made brake plate new brake shoes and springs, new 530 drive chain , all frame and frame components powdercaoted gloss black including footpeg mounts, brake pedal, rear brake stay, new sidestand, handmade battery box , Gasbox 18” rear fender , Biltwell mako LED taillight, hand made rear fender struts, bates style seat , T C Brothers axle mount license plate holder, the gas tank is a vintage Tri-Cor accessory tank that was made for the for pre-unit racing models, the oil tank is from a Norton, all of the painted parts were painted with house of colors mini-flake blue and silver for that 70s racing look . This bike is fun to ride and will draw attention wherever it goes. As with any custom built motorcycle it may need periodic attention for maintanence purposes and any issues that may arrive due to be a new build . It has been tuned on a dynamometer and is running very well it will start first kick very easily most of the time . I do have a printout from the dyno run . I do not feel that this would be the best bike for long trips or extended freeway riding if that is what you are looking for this may not be for you. I do not have the time or want to have to crate this bike for shipping but I will assist any shipper of your choosing in any way I can. This bike is being sold as-is where is no warranty expressed or implied. If you do not have any feedback please contact me before bidding. If you do not your bids may be cancelled.
