THIS IS A 1972 TRIUMPH TIGER 650 MOTORCYCLE. THIS BIKE HAS 20,700 MILES ON IT.THIS BIKE BELONGED TO AN OLDER GENT NEAR ME WHO GAVE UP RIDING SEVERAL YEARS AGO DUE TO AGE. THE BIKE WAS GARAGE KEPT.THE BIKE WAS STORED WITH NO FUEL IN IT. INSIDE THE TANK LOOKS LIKE BRAND NEW.THE MOTOR KICKS FINE WITH GOOD COMPRESSION AND IT CLICKS THROUGH THE GEARS FINE.IT WAS REPAINTED WITH IMRON PAINT.I HAVE THE FRONT FENDER AND BRACKETS, THEY ARE JUST NOT MOUNTED RIGHT NOW.THE BIKE WILL NEED A NEW BATTERY. THE BATTERY LEADS NEED NEW ENDS CRIMPED ONTO THE POSITIVE/NEGATIVE WIRES TO MOUNT TO THE BATTERY.RIGHT CYLINDER SPARK PLUG HOLE NEEDS A THREAD CHASER RUN THROUGH IT TO CLEAN UP THE THREADS. I TOOK OUT THE RIGHT PLUG AND NOTICED IT DIDNT WANT TO GO BACK IN EASILY SO I DIDN'T TRY TO FORCE IT IN, ITS BETTER TO CLEAN UP THE THREADS FIRST. THEY DON'T LOOK STRIPPED SO IT SHOULD SIMPLE. MIGHT JUST BE GUMMED UP BUT I WASNT GONNA FORCE THE PLUG IN. IT STARTS TO SCREW IN THEN I MET SOME RESISTANCE DOING IT BY HAND SO I JUST STOPPED UNTIL A THREAD CHASER CAN CLEAN IT UP. I DON'T HAVE ONE SO ITS UP TO YOU.IF YOU HOOK UP A BATTERY AND ADD GAS THIS BIKE SHOULD BE A RUNNER FOR YOU. I DIDN'T OPEN THE CARB AS IT WAS STORED WITHOUT FUEL AND EVERYTHING WAS EMPTIED PRIOR TO STORAGE, BUT YOU MIGHT WANNA GET IN THERE AND GIVE IT A QUICK CLEAN ANYWAY JUST IN CASE. THE PETCOCKS BOTH MOVE FINE. BRAKES WORK.FRAME NUMBER - NG 38782ENGINE NUMBER NG 38782.NICE OLD TRIUMPH.
