Triumph stroked 65 CC description

PAY ATTENTION, this could be confusing. What is offered  started out as a 500 CC bike, I removed that motor and built a 650 CC for it, however the original number matching cases
( with a 1 piece crank shaft installed) go with the bike. The motor has"
 A later -later 1 piece stroked, 6 MM (.239") polished and balanced crankshaft.
Cunningham steed connecting rods and a new oil pump.
C P forged pistons, rings, wrist pins, & pin locks, along with another matching complete set.
The head has been ported, has large valves, larger Kibblewhite valve springs.
The rocker arms are lightened & polished, also has steel push rods, and new Johnson cams.
The magneto has been rebuilt, the late 40's - early 50's tachometer is also rebuilt.
The motor has been rotated 10 degrees forward and has new accommodating exh. pipes.
The last year non unit transmission has been converted to 5 speed, has a new "dry" clutch
driven by a new belt drive w/ spacer allowing use of the original primary chain cover.
The wheels are Buchannon assembled using polished stainless spokes.
The seat is original Bates, the pillion is a "period' original .
The forks using Franks Maintenance stanchions and are re-bushed.
The gas tank is an original period (no 3rd.world leaker) sealed peanut tank.
I have a New York Certificate of Title (can get a Calif. title at buyers expense).
Several years ago I rode it quietly and softly through our residential area for approximately
3  - 4 miles, drained the fluids and have since then been tripping over and cursing it, I am
too old and used/broken up to kick it over so IT'S TIME TO GO. if you have questions
you may reach me @ Dick  @714 429-0250

At the same time, the company announced an operating loss of £95,000 (US$155,300), the company’s time in the red since 2009.

A short film about Zen

Thu, 28 Apr 2011

This beautifully shot short film alludes to a phrase by Robert M Pirsig, the author of Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance: "If the machine produces tranquility it's right. If it disturbs you it's wrong until either the machine or your mind is changed".  But is any Triumph single ever capable of producing a sensation of tranquility, even when it is 'right'? I suspect not...
