Triumph Trident description

I will probably regret it but it time to thin a herd a bit as I have a bad back and don't ride much anymore so I will start with my 74 Triple. Frame and engine numbers match.  About 3 years ago I had the cylinders honed with new rings and the top end gone through. It was painted in the last 3 years along with new chain, fork seals, decals, brake hoses, rebuilt caliper and master cylinder, Tri-Spark ignition (no points) , Venhill clutch cable, plug wires etc. Seat is original as are the Dunlop K81 TT100 tires which are not dry rotted . I wouldn't drive them on the highway just in case but the original crowd make like them. I just put some fresh gas in it and it starts fine. One of the issues with the crappy gas these days is that the idle passages get gummed up and you have you have to do the .016 drill bit thing since the gas is such crap. It's on a clean NY title. I'm located in Charlotte , if you want a NC title in my name it will cost you $100 if memory serves me correctly.
This bike is almost 40 years old and is sold as-is and where-is with no warranty expressed or implied. Seriously, if you are bidding on this bike you know what you are buying. Shipping arrangements are the responsibility of the seller and I will hold the bike for a reasonable period of time once paid for.
Note that I replaced the left side fuel line today after the old one started leaking so it won't match what's in the pictures.

Craig Vetter To Headline AMA Hall Of Fame Breakfast At Daytona, March 14

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

AMA Hall of Fame member Craig Vetter will be the featured guest at its annual AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Breakfast at Daytona, on Friday, March 14, at 7:00 a.m., at the Daytona 500 Club on the infield at Daytona International Speedway.  “Craig Vetter’s impact is far-reaching, starting with the design of the iconic Windjammer fairings of the 1970s, continuing with motorcycle designs like the Triumph X-75 Hurricane and the limited-edition ‘Mystery Ship,’ and enduring more recently with a resurrected series of motorcycle fuel economy runs that push the boundaries of everyday streamlining,” said Jeff Heininger, chairman of the American Motorcycle Heritage Foundation, which oversees the Hall of Fame. “We’re proud to host motorcycling’s design professor emeritus for this year’s Breakfast at Daytona.” Taking place during 2014 Daytona Bike Week, the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Breakfast at Daytona fundraiser will feature a live interview with Vetter on stage, an audience Q&A period and an autograph session with Vetter and other Hall of Famers in attendance. The event is open to the public, and tickets are available now at www.motorcyclemuseum.org.
