Vehicle Detail

Spring is here,and you are bidding on a 1998 Triumph T509 "Speed Triple" in great condition,with low miles of only 3,145-Not even broken in yet!These were the second generation Speed Triple which really put the Meriden Triumph company back on the map.These were the original "naked hooligan" bikes that created this product category for motorcycles.Here are the details: I purchased the bike this past spring off of the second owner,who hadn't really ridden it much in the last couple years.I had my mechanic go over the bike with a fine tooth comb,and here is a listing of what was done: All fluids,including motor oil(Mobile1) & filter were changed,along with front & rear brake fluids,and engine coolant.Fuel injection system was cleaned out & synced,and all fuel line fittings/lines were replaced.Spark plugs & battery were replaced,and valves were checked & adjusted within spec. The bike fires up easily,and the 6-speed tranny shifts through flawlessly.Really a fun bike to ride,as there is plenty of power on tap,and the upright seating position is very comfortable.The bike handles like it is on rails,and the brakes are awesome.Overall,really a fun bike to ride that really defines the "naked bike" concept. The bodywork & paint are in great shape,with little,if any,scratching or scuffs.The original seat was replaced with a Corbin,and I do not have the original.The original muffler was replaced with a factory Triumph "off road" muffler,and really sounds great!Original Triumph factory fly screen is mounted & looks great.I replaced the original turn signals with smaller units that aren't as bulky.Also replaced the original mirrors with bar end.The originals will be included if desired.I also have the original owner's manual,and the title is clear.I will also include a factory Triumph tank bag,and Haynes workshop manual with the Buy It Now price. . Please contact me with any questions,as all sales are final.Make sure you clear your purchase with your significant other,dogs,cats,kids,etc. before placing your bid.Winning bidder to pay a $250.00 Paypal deposit within 48 hrs.,and full payment is due within 7 days.I can also recommend a shipper if needed,but the bike must be picked up within 2 weeks,unless arrangements are made with me.Thanks for looking!
