A LITTLE HISTORY ABOUT THE T100R: (ya don't need ta read this stuf... it's just F.Y.I.) I purchased this baby from a riding buddy of mine and rode it for years. Then my kids got old enough to ride and they started riding it... heck, I used to have to make a reservation to ride her. Then the grand kids got old enough to ride... OK, that was the end of making reservations... got myself a Harley Davidson Ultra Classic Electaglide... no more waiting in line to ride... although I still jumped on the old T100R now and then... for a quick zip on the mountian roads... what a blast! Then my son and his family moved to Yuma, Arizona (he's stationed at the U S Marine base there, and ready to retire). Years ago my son and the family came up for a visit and the T100R was riden daily for a week or so. When they got ready to head back south... my son asked... "Hey Dad, since you have the Harley... what do you think about us taking the Triumph home with us... you know the kids love it"... then there was 10 minutes of silance... and I calmly yelled "WHAT !?!?"... He said " We WILL take good care of her"... long story short... they took her home with them. A couple years ago the misses and I headed out to Yuma to visit my son and family.... and to see our new GREAT grand son. We had a great visit... UNTIL I walked into his garage... There, in the corner, all DIRTY and DUSTY was MY T100R... what a mess (in my eyes)... Dented front AND rear fenders, NO license plate, torn seat, the gaiters were half missing, front tire flat, rear wheel missin' a spoke AND slightly bent... and so on! I just stood there, not sayin' a word... my son and grand son promptly rolled her out and started cleaning her up. "Huh" I said... "does she still run?". "sure grandpa" my grand son said. Agian... lost for words I said... "Huh". Well, after a day of cleanin', repairing the old, worn out front tire, checking the fluid levels, and a little gas... we got her started. Sweet! I took her around the block and she shifted great, but running a little sour... carbs were way out on adjustment... never did get the popping and sputtering out of them. Anyway, we loaded her into the back of my truck, and we brought her back home. I rode her around a couple times... but this was NOT going to work... I was used to her looking and running perfectly.... soooo, I started the "Restoration" project... and if you ever did a restoration project ya know... you start with one part, which leads to another part "not quite perfect", and another, and another, and another.... never ending.... that's how the front end ended up almost 100% new. Now the misses is all over me about all the time and money I'm spending on the T100R. Yeah, I know.... but she's right. Anyway, that's why she's For Sale (the T100R... not the misses). So now ya know a "little history" on my T100R.
