Triumph Thunderbird description

1966 TRIUMPH 6T THUNDERBIRD MOTORCYCLE.  All paint on motorcycle is original as it came from the factory. Motorcycle has never been repainted. All chrome on motorcycle is original. Wiring harness is original as it came from factory. I have owned and ridden this motorcycle for 27 years and purchased it from the original owner. Matching numbers on engine and frame. Includes original Stadium bar end mirror.

The engine is 650 cc and has been rebuilt and includes:

New main bearings, New rod bearings, New piston rings, New valve guides, All new gaskets in engine, New clutch plates, New pressure plate and new clutch springs, new primary chain and fresh gasket in primary chaincase. New clutch cable. New battery. Motorcycle always starts on the first kick.

All fluids have just been changed: fresh engine oil, fresh oil in primary case, fresh oil in gearbox.... Amal 376 carburetor has just been cleaned. Float needle is new and gas filter is new.

Original chrome Dunlop Wheel rims: Excellent chrome on rims and spoke nipples.

The paint is original an has excellent patina. The gas tank has one dent in the right side on the top. As you can see the front fender is not original to the bike, it is the fender that was on the bike when I purchased the bike. There is a very slow oil leak in the top end.

I have ridden this bike a lot and I have never had any trouble with the electrical system. All lights work, original horn works fine, all electrical switches in headlight nacelle are original. All electrical components are original Lucas. Charging system works as it should and is completely dependable. The engine runs perfectly and idles just right. The gearbox shifts just right. The motorcycle is a pleasure to ride.

THIS IS NOT A SHOW BIKE, IT IS IN ORIGINAL EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE MILEAGE I WOULD ESTIMATE TO BE AROUND 20,000

IT IS VERY HARD TO FIND ALL ORIGINAL TRIUMPH THUNDERBIRD MOTORCYCLES IN EXCELLENT UNRESTORED ORIGINAL CONDITION. The bike is very easy to work on and service, I have done all service and engine work myself and always enjoyed it.

Buyer to pick up motorcycle in Virginia.
