1975 Triumph Trident

Clear

CLASSIC 1975 TRIUMPH TRIDENT. I bought this bike over 20 years ago. After extensive restoration, I had a motorcycle I could ride on the freeway at top speed, with confidence it would stop when I wanted it to. I changed the brake system over to 2 disks (not easy). Koni shocks, braided stainless steel lines. Progressive springs with 1/2" pre-load. Dunstall replica mufflers on stock pipes. Wheels are Morris Mags. 19" front/ 18"rear. Sticky sport tread tires. This bike is up-graded from stock, but if you must go back, it would be easy. Comes with Triumph Owners Manuals, Parts & Mechanics manuals. Also my history of work on the bike.

Also gas tank has a very small yellowed spot where gas stained, (also in pics). I also have a box full of the stock air cleaner, footrests, stock lower fork leg etc. If you don't care for the Tracy fairing it is quickly removeable.On Sep-11-11 at 16:32:58 PDT, seller added the following information: Also, I was just thinking about the paint. I painted this in 1991 using House of Colors (Wild Cherry) and as I was spraying, I couldn't stop when I got to the correct shade. I loved it more as I applied more paint. So, it's not the true shade for '75 Trident, but it has been stored indoors and seen very little sunlight. The side covers/oil tank and frame is still factory painted black. Matching frame/engine numbers.On Sep-12-11 at 14:35:27 PDT, seller added the following information: Just wanted to be clear on a couple of points.
