Triumph Trident description

Relisting due to non-payment...


No reserve.  I have some more pics if you want to send me a message.

1973 (series 2) Trident with ~7000 miles on the odo.

I bought this bike in pieces in Michigan 4 years ago or so. All of the parts are there for a full resto, but i started a hard tail project that's about 70% complete.

Rebuilt engine:
- Punched and honed cylinders
- New pistons
- Valve jorb
- Tri-Spark electronic ignition

The chrome on the engine cases was flaking and looked like shit, so i pulled it off and painted them black. Haven't started the engine since then, but I rode it after the new cylinders but before cleaning up the cases.  It should just need to be oiled, hooked up and timed... which is a piece of cake with the Tri-Spark.

New Pirelli tires with 0 miles on them.

Powder coated frame and tank.

New air box.

Rebuilt the carbs, should still be balanced.

New battery and coils.

Needs:
- All brakes
- Finish exhaust system
- Electrics (lights, signals, zener charger).
- Throttle grip
- A few 1/4-20s on the engine cases could use helicoils.
- All the little stuff you don't think about probably.

I love this bike, but i don't have a garage since moving to CA, so as much as I keep telling myself I'm going to finish it, it hasnt happened in these last 2 years... bike is stored in a climate controlled workshop.

Also, it has Tennessee plates, so if you buy it in CA, you won't need to register it non-op while it's being worked on.

First Look: Alpinestars Bionic Neck Support

Tue, 02 Nov 2010

I'm predominantly a road rider, so I haven't had much to do with neck braces, until now. I'm heading on the launch of the new Triumph Tiger 800 and there will be a session of light off-roading so I thought this would be a chance to try the Alpinestars Bionic Neck Support, mainly to see what it was like for day-to-day use. I hope I don't crash hard enough to test its protection qualities and I don't expect to be clearing any table tops either, but I'm curious to know how I get on with the BNS and whether it feels claustrophobic.
