1963 Triumph Trophy

T100H30990

THIS 1963 TRIUMPH T100SS IS A MATCHING NUMBERS BIKE WITH SOUTH CAROLINA TITLE IN MY NAME. IT STILL HAS ITS ORIGINAL E.T. IGNTION SYSTEM AND RUNS VERY WELL. THE LIGHTS WORK AND SO DOES THE CHRONOMETRIC SPEEDOMETER. IT HAS THE SMALL TRIALS TYPE ORIGINAL FUEL TANK WITH PARCEL GRID AND WHAT LOOKS LIKE MAYBE ORIGINAL OR VERY OLD PAINTWORK. THE TANK HAS BEEN LINED WITH CASWELL AND DOES NOT SEAM TO HAVE ANY ISSUES. I HAVE PERSONALLY PUT ABOUT 150 MILE IN THE BIKE AND IT RUNS AND PRESENTS VERY NICELY. THE BIKE STARTS EASILY WHEN PROPERLY PRIMED / CHOKED AND ONCE WARMED UP COMES INTO A STEADY IDLE AT ABOUT 900 RPM(BEST ESTIMATE AS THERE IS NO TACHOMETER). THESE IS NO SMOKE OR FUNNY NOISES COMING FROM THE MOTOR AND THE OIL PRESSURE INDICATOR SHOWS STRONG PRESSURE EVEN AT A LOW IDLE. THESE BIKES CAME ORIGINAL WITH NO SIDE COVER BUT ONE CAN BE ADDED EASILY AND IS AVAILABLE. THIS BIKE HAS ITS ORIGINAL UNDERSHEILD, FOLDING DRIVER AND PASSENGER FOOTPEGS, SPEEDOMETER WHICH AMAZINGLY WORKS PERFECTLY, ONE YEAR OLNY ET TOOLKIT BOX , LARGE BALL END LEVERS, LUCAS HEADLIGHT LENS AND TAILIGHT LENS AND MANY OTHER ITEMS. THIS IS NOT A SHOW BIKE BUT NOT FAR OFF EITHER! AS FAR AS FLAWS ARE CONCERNED THERE ARE A FEW. THE HORN AND BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH DO NOT WORK. THERE ARE SOME PAINT BLESM IN THE TANK AND AROUND THE FILLER CAP(FROM GAS SPILLAGE OVER THE YEARS?). THERE IS ONE SPLIT IN THE FRONT ALLOY FENDER BUT THE REAR LOOKS PRETTY GOOD. THE ORIGINAL E.T. COILS HAVE BEEN UPGRADED TO A NEWER STYLE E.T. COIL. THE K70 TIRES ARE RESPECTABLE BUT NOT NEW. THE BIKE DOES HAVE A FEW SMALL OIL LEAKS ONE OF WHICH IS FROM THE BASS CYLINDER GASKET. THE CHROME ON THE LEVERS AND THROTTLE IS NOT GOOD. THIS BIKE IS IN AS IS CONDITION WITH NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. I WILL GLADLY SHOW IT TO ANYONE INTERESTED. DELIVERY IS UP TO THE BUYER BUT FOR $2.00 PER LOADED MILE I WILL DELIVER UP TO 500 MILES AS LONG AS IT IS PAID FOR IN ADVANCE. THE BIKE MUST BE PAID FOR WITHIN 5 DAYS OF THE AUCTIONS CLOSE AND PLEASE ONLY BID IF YOU HAVE 10 OR MORE FEEDBACK. OTHERWISE PLEASE E-MAIL ME FIRST. THIS IS AN OLD BRITISH MOTORCYCLE, AT SOME POINT IT WILL NEED WORK SO BUYER BEWARE! (HAVE TO PUT THAT FOR PEOPLE WHO THINK IT WILL BE JUST LIKE THERE 2009 HONDA SHADOW)
