Triumph Trophy description

My apologies to previous listing watchers, had to relist in another category. Please read entire listing, particularly important title info. below. 1969 Triumph T100C Trophy. Matching #"s 500cc twin. Nice little bobber/custom with authentic period details. Bates headlight, fork shrouds, drag bars, and chromed engine case covers, rocker covers, swing arm, and rear brake. Correct T100C narrow tank with matt cleared steel/primer finish, no dents/rust. Faded out vintage graphics with custom rubber British insignia knee grips. One off leather and brass riveted solo seat. Chrome is tired, showing wear and pitting (along with paint) but fits the vintage look of this bike. Rough and ready. Mechanically very good, starts and runs. Both cylinders show 125 psi compression cold (see photo), looks to have been rebuilt at one time. Oil tank cleaned out and repainted. Shifts through all gears without problems. Tracks well. TT pipes with very short baffles. Never checked brakes but marginally adequate. Swing arm pivot solid. Forks could use new seals, have them. Nice Metzeler tires but older, rear shows slight cracks probably from sitting flat for years. I have completely rewired with Tympanium solid state regulator, PVL coils, Lucas RITA electronic ignition, small 12V battery. All lights work. Will need rear bottom push rod tube seal replaced for slight oil leak, no other major oil leaks. Short geared scrambler model, great for around town, not so much for highway without a sprocket change. Clymer service manual included. Desirable high pipe model for original restoration, great display item, cafe project, or run as is with minor work for inspection. IMPORTANT PLEASE NOTE: This motorcycle comes with bill of sale ONLY. Bill of sale ONLY. Ebay requires something in title category. Was bought out of Connecticut where titles are not required for 20 years and older. Have my original bill of sale from seller, but no previous Conn. registration. Connecticut DMV had no record of recent registration (it's a 47 year old bike that has been sitting most of it's life). Can register through Vermont with an out of state address, costs around $200, see online, or perhaps your state is more lenient than PA regarding old motorcycles. If you have a problem with any of this do not bid. Can deliver on pallet to local freight hub, buyer to arrange all shipping. Possible delivery to AMA Vintage Days at MidOhio, contact me before auction closes. First time bidders contact me before auction closes. Bike is described honestly to the best of my abilities, but sold as is. Will answer any questions, one of several vintage bikes I own. Inspection available.

How well does a Triumph Tiger 800 crash?

Mon, 08 Nov 2010

I've just come back to the hotel after our first day riding the Tiger 800 with the other Brit journos. One of the journos (who shall remain nameless, but alas, it wasn't me) crashed at low speed. Pictured here is his bike.

Sulfur Yellow Triumph Daytona 675 Highlights New 2012 Colors

Tue, 15 May 2012

Triumph announced a number of new paint schemes for several of its models. While the new options are for the most part merely cosmetic, the lone exception is the new sulfur yellow 2012 Triumph Daytona 675. We’re not quite sure it’s good marketing for a color scheme that reminds you of the smell of rotten eggs, but the sulfur yellow Daytona 675 also sports a number of upgrades.

Isle of Man TT 2014: Monster Supersport TT 1 Results

Mon, 02 Jun 2014

Gary Johnson narrowly beat out Bruce Anstey to take the first of two Supersport races at the 2014 Isle of Man TT. Riding the Daytona 675, Johnson’s win was the first for Triumph since 2003, ironically, with Anstey taking the victory that year in the Junior 600cc class. The race started three hours behind schedule due to fog, but once it began it quickly became a duel between Johnson and Anstey.
