1970 TRIUMPH T100C TROPHY 500cc Motorcycle with matching numbers. Only 9,035 original miles! It is truly RARE to find one of these that has not been ruined by 44 years of neglect and do-it-yorself wrenching! The original owner purchased directly from factory and used it a few times. He owned it for 25 years and garage stored it. The owner before me did not want to restore it but, used all original parts, cleaned it up, replaced what needed replacing and repainted what needed repainting. He used it seldomly and garage kept it as I have done. I purchased it 8 years ago, occassionally ride around town, and put less than 100 miles on it. I have kept it in a garage as has been the case for this bike's entire lifetime. This is one of those unusual, happy Triumphs that starts right up - usually on the first try! Doesn't smoke. Doesn't leak. Idles like it is supposed to. With the tuned slash-cut high pipes and the Jacaranda purple tank, it's a real head turner. This is the year and Model that most desire as the following year required turn signals and the chassis was changed shortly thereafter. I just had $607 check up completed by an outstanding, 30 year experienced Triumph motorcycle mechanic - Jack Geoghegan of Deer Park Cycle in Eldersburg, MD 21784. I replaced parts with new battery, condensers, points and spark plugs and rear brake switch. We are moving soon so it is time to pass this baby on to the next classic Triumph lover for the tender loving care it has been accustomed to having it's entire existence. If you want to ship the bike, you'll have to handle all the arrangements. I will be glad to store it for 30 days after payment if that helps. Please feel free to ask me any questions you have about the bike and good luck bidding.
