Triumph Trident description

For Sale: 1975 Triumph Trident Motorcycle with 1900 MILES!!!
1975 Triumph Trident Triple. This is almost showroom new condition with only 1945 miles.
This is a museum quality vintage British motorcycle. The last year Trident, with electric start, many one-year-only parts, original (now rock hard) tires with nipples still on them. This is a motorcycle that belongs in a collection. The owner is reducing his collection down to a few favorite riders, so this one will be sold to an appreciative buyer.
It is 40 years old, and has been ridden 1900 miles, so has a small amount of wear, but please examine the photos and ask questions if you are a serious buyer.
Headers are NOT blued. Chrome plated brake rotors are not scored like almost any you will find. Starts right up - no smoke, runs fine.
You could buy a Trident, restore it, pay more than this, and end up with something that's restored and not original. Not a big deal for all, but important to some.
$12,000

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...

Are Motorcycles Safer With Antilock Brakes?

Tue, 30 Dec 2008

A new report says riders with ABS-equipped bikes can dramatically reduce the chance of a fatal accident. The study compared fatality rates among riders on bikes that have antilock brakes, and it found that death rates were 38% lower on motorcycles equipped with the optional ABS systems compared to non-ABS bikes. In 2005-2006, the fatal crashes per 10,000 registered motorcycles without antilock brakes was 6.6.
