Vehicle Detail

This auction is for a Triumph Bobber, with matching numbers and a clean title, it started life as a stock 1973 Triumph Bonneville 750cc oil in frame triumph. It was transformed into a rear wheel spinning low down hardcore bobber, frame built in house by Chopper Enterprises. The 750cc motor was gone through, starting with the sludge trap, crank, main and rod bearings, fresh bored and honed cylinders with new Hepolite pistons, USA Hastings rings, brass Rowe valve guides, Rowe stainless steel valves. 520 miles on bike since engine rebuild. Brand new dual carburetors, British Standard JRC 30mm PWK Carburetors for simple startups with cone air cleaners, pull chokes up for quick cold startups, no more gas dribbling down on motor. The T140v 5 speed transmission was gone through and refreshed; the primary has new Barnett clutches and springs for a quick light hookup. The complete stock spaghetti Lucas wiring was replaced with a Podtronics 4 wire single phase 200 watt high power rectifier unit combined with a 12 volt Anti-Gravity battery to keep wiring to a minimum while providing a superior negative ground electrical system over stock, also a new C5 electronic ignition with a high output dual fire coil for extreme performance and no maintenance. Vintage Smith D speedometer, chronometric, 1930’s UNITY Brass headlight with LED upgrade up front and a 1930’s Brass Ford side mount LED taillight on rear. Custom black alligator La Rosa solo seat with billet 5" inch mini solo seat shocks for minimizing bounce while riding. UK custom chrome headers and bullet exhaust system. This bike is a blast to ride! The gas tank is a stock 1973 Triumph 4.0 gallon with brass Triumph emblems. 7/8" EMGO Euro chrome bars top off front end to add a retro bobber look. Have added progressive fork springs for firm front end performance as well as early fork boots and top shields to give the bike an early bobber look common to the 50's and early 60's. New front and rear Dunlop D404 motorcycle tires and original chrome Triumph rims with new front and back wheel bearings. New front and rear brake pads, new chain and rear chain sprocket. This bike has been painted a simple flat black, it was built with riding in mind, for less time cleaning and it is a blast to ride! This bike was specialized to have the look of a 50's bobber while retaining the updated dependable parts and performance of today. There are a lot of brass performance and accent parts that really add to the look of this bike. Headlight, tail light, Kustomtech clutch lever, Kustomtech brake lever, Kustomtech risers, Kustomtech throttle body, rear brake pedal, kicker, shifter, rear brake rod, port hole timing cover, case oil covers, oil cap, gas cap, Triumph badges, seat lift, exhaust tips and many nuts and bolts throughout the build.
