Vehicle Detail
67 triumph tiger custom built chopper. this bike was built back in the early 70's. a real time capsule. i bought it off ebay two years ago from california and had it shipped to me. the previous owner stated this bike was built by arlen ness in the 70's. i cannot confirm or deny his claim, what i can tell you for sure is the bike started as a 67 triumph tiger 650. the frame is a custom digger style goosenecked frame,(not triumph frame) original invader mag wheels, still has original arco tires( tubes in them they still hold air). the bike has many early arlen ness parts on it, including gold plated cylinder and custom one off frame. i put all new gaskets in motor and i had top-end off to inspect motor. the motor still had cross hatch in cylinder. new clutch. amol carb was polished and rebuilt. brand new $ 900.00 morris magneto (easy starting) the bike runs great and starts easy. i have put over $3000.00 in this bike in restoration costs. the bike has gorgeus original show chrome, gold plated alloy cylinders. the paint is fair. for being 40years old it looks pretty good, plus it is the original paint from when the bike was built. bike has new seat i have shown this bike locally and it always steals the show. BIKE is for sale locally and i reserve right to end auction early. i have over $10,000 in this bike. this is an orginal 70's custom built show bike. this is'nt someone slap together special as many triumph's are. you could not build this bike for this price i promise you. i the last triumph show bike i built cost me $15,000 to build. please call if you have any questions 843-261-0055 ask for Rob. Buyer is reponsible for all shipping costs. paypal or moneyorder accepted. cash in person prefered
