Vehicle Detail
--NO RESERVE-- this is a RUNNING BIKE! CLEAN TITLE Mostly complete, missing a few pieces.. This has been mostly in storage, inside, since I acquired it in early 1996(as well as before that), ridden sparingly at Triumph meets & the like. Tank has a couple dings, but clean & usable(no leaks). Again, this bike runs & shifts through all gears, altho the shifter is alittle 'sticky', due to not being on the road since 2005. Had it running briefly over the summer to confirm its in running order, but only for a minute. Will need TLC before it can be road worthy. No smoke after initial start up, typical Triumph 'leaks'. Oil in frame, Stock Lucas ignition system. To the best of my knowledge, the motor is completely stock, numbers match the frame. This is a great candidate for a restoration, ride as it is after some work, or show piece(furniture) Has great patina! New seat(and old ragged). New header pipes(not yet installed) & stock under frame muffler. A spare set of headlamp mounting 'wires'(one on bike is broken). The rear turn lamp tabs were cut off prior to me aquiring the bike. side covers are present and in tact w/fasteners. I have some other pieces & a shop manual. Rear fender has a piece missing/cracks at tail end(see pictures). The kick stand tab is broken( I have the stand/tab). Tac is operational. The speedo is alittle wacky as the set screws fell out of the face & the face spins and spins from the vibration! But the needle/trip meter/odometer seem in working order. But, for all intensive purposes, I will declare True Miles Unknown. Over all in great shape. Cool little scooter. I have too many bikes & not enough time/$$ to mess with them. My interest are moving in another direction. Clean title, in hand. I reserve the right to end auction early, as I have a few appt. to show it.
