Clear

Triumph Rocket III "Roadster" in mint condition. This bike is about as new as any you would purchase off the showroom floor. Only 1,160 miles, this bike hasn't even had it's first service yet and isn't even broken in yet. I've only ridden this bike approximately 4 times and it has "never" seen rain. I have a Black Widow spider with spider webs theme on this bike, but can easily be removed if desired. But, why would you want to? I have gotten many, many compliments on this bike and the Black Widow theme and it attracts bystanders everywhere! This bike is the largest bike from a common manufacturer on the planet, at 2,300 CC...........in short, it is a "Monster". Very fast! Specs and accessories: Shaft drive, water cooled, fuel injected, and comes with virtually every available option, to include a passenger back rest and pad, Triumph Custom Oval mirrors, Chrome side panels/covers, Touring windshield, handlebar mounted clock. I also have the stock claret red side covers and the stock mirrors, along with a very cool and smaller sport windshield for driving around town and looking cool. (These can be seen alongside the bike on the ground in the pictures). Specifications include, 140 HP, More torque than you will ever need as you can drive this bike in 5th gear and never change if you prefer, TORQUE: 147.00 Nm (15.0 kgf-m or 108.4 ft.lbs) @ 2500 RPM, Multipoint sequential electronic fuel injection, DOHC, 5 Speed transmission, Chromed spring twin shocks with adjustable preload, Front Suspension 43mm upside down forks, Double Disc front brakes, Dry Weight 704 lbs., Fuel Capacity 6.3 Gallons. This bike is absolutely beautiful and I cannot find one flaw on it anywhere. Always kept inside my climate controlled shed beside my house, along with my other bike which is a Anniversary Edition 2005, Yamaha VMAX. I paid over $ 17,000 for this bike new and currently owe less than $ 1,000 on the bike from FreedomRoad Financial. I have contacted them and was informed that they can have the clear title in my hands in less than ten days after payment in full is received. I intend to pay the bike off immediately upon sale and receipt of payment and will give the buyer a Bill of Sale signed by me, upon transfer which should be all you need to get the bike registered. When I receive the title, I will sign the back of it and mail it to the buyer overnight delivery, to ensure you have it in your hands as soon as possible. I have two keys for this bike, along with the owners manual which are all in immaculate condition (as new). Please feel free to contact me if you would like to come by and look at the bike, however I cannot allow any joy rides. I will start the bike and show you anything you wish to look at if you're intereseted. I will assist with shipping as much as I can, however shipment of this bike is the buyer's responsiblity and if you contract a shipping agency, they must have a copy of the Bill of Sale that I will email to you beforehand, before I will alllow them to pick up the bike. This is for your safety and security! Winning bidder must pay a $ 1,000 down payment via Paypal within 48 hours of auction end, and this is non-refundable if you decide for any reason to back out of the purchase. There would be no legitimate reason for anyone to back out of their agreement to buy with regards to this listing or the bike as it is as good as I have stated here, if not better! Remainder of payment/balance must be paid within 7 days of end of auction via bank check, or other means already agreed upon by me in advance. As anyone can understand, I will not allow the bike to be shipped or to leave my premises until payment has cleared my bank. If you do not intend to purchase this bike, then please do not bid! If you have a very bad, negative feedback rating, then please contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. This protects others who are genuinely interested in buying this bike. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me through Ebay "Contact Seller" and I will reply to all inquiries promptly. I'm sure I will get questions asking why I am selling this bike, so I'll answer that question now. I simply don't have time to ride as much as I would like and I already have another nice bike to ride and don't need two. Also, I'm older now and it's harder for me to handle this large of a bike anymore, so I've decided to keep the VMAX and seel the monster Rocket III. Happy Bidding and good luck! I forgot to mention that this bike also comes with a luggage rack behind the passenger backrest as seen in the pictures. Also, the large black leather luggage bag shown attached to the passenger backrest is "not" included with this auction, but will be available to the buyer at a low cost. I also have a brand new and very nice set of leather "Saddleman" saddle bags and rack attachement bars that I will also sell at a very low price to the winning bidder if you want them. With the side saddle bags and the large leather bag for the sissy bar, you will have plenty of room to store almost anything you'll need for traveling on those long trips across country. I'm sure there are some other custom accessories that I forgot to mention here, but everything you see in the pictures, including the original side covers, original mirrors, and the sport windshield are all included in the sale of the bike, with exception of the large leather travel bag shown over the passenger backrest. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have. I just wanted to add to this listing that my "buy it now" price is well below the Kelly Blue Book value for this bike, and my "reserve" price is way....way....below that buy it now price. So, here's your chance to own one of the best Touring bikes on the planet with torque like you've never experienced, for a small fraction of what you will pay for a new one. This bike new today will run you well over $ 15,000 at any retailer and you have the opportunity to buy one here for way less than half this price. Good Luck to all and ride safely!On Jun-10-14 at 06:02:09 PDT, seller added the following information: I wanted to add another note to this auction as I forgot to mention a few other items on the bike that are not normal stock items and are custom additions. I have also installed the knee pads on each side of the gas tank (see pictures) and a nice leather tank pad/protector to the top of the gas tank which is a custom accessory from Triumph (also shown in the pictures). Aslo, as stated in my description above, if the winning bidder is interested in the new leather saddlemen saddlebags and mounts I have for this bike, those will be sold separately and price/payment for these can be discussed at auction end. I've been asked a few questions regarding the vinyl decals (black widow spider theme) and it will be up to the winner of this bike to leave them on or remove them. They can be easily removed and leave no sign of ever having been on. However, I have gotten many, many compliments on this bike and people "love" the spiders and webs on the bike, so I see no need why anyone would want to remove them unless they are planning to get a custom paint job on the bike. Please keep in mind that I will be generating a Bill of Sale for this bike at auction end so I will need to coordinate with the winner for your information to include on the Bill of Sale so everything will be in order at time of pick up. Whatever agency you use to ship this bike "must have" a copy of this Bill of Sale with them, or at a minimum, have the Reference # which will be shown at the top of the Bill of Sale before I will release the bike. This is for "your" protection and security. After final payment has been cleared, I will pay off the remaining balance on the bike to my creditor and they have assured me they will have the Title in my hands within 10 days after final payment has cleared through them. I only owe about $ 1000 so this is not an issue. In most states, you can register your bike with only a Bill of Sale and then have the title transferred into your name after you receive it. I will send the title to you "overnight delivery" when it is received so you have it in your hands as soon as possible. Thanks to all for viewing my auction and good luck to all bidders.
