From Wikipedia:"2002 was the 100th anniversary of Triumph motorcycles (1902 was first year for Triumph) and for this special event Triumph planned to produce a limited number of centennial Bonneville T100s in a "Lucifer orange" and silver paint scheme. But on 15 March 2002, while in the midst of preparing for its anniversary, its main factory was destroyed by fire, crippling most of its manufacturing capacity. Only a handful of centennial edition T100s were produced in March 2002 before the fire, making them very rare. The remaining production run of centennial edition T100s were actually 2003 models that were built after the factory was repaired from the fire damage; these remaining T100s had to be 2003 year models as it was after September 2002 (into the 2003 model production year) before production started again. Even combining the 2002 and 2003 bikes produced, there were only a few of these first-year modern T100 bikes manufactured. Although exact numbers were not disclosed, the factory had promoted a limited run of 500 total units."Bike HistoryJune 5, 2002: Manual shows it was originally purchased in Waco, Texas by a Sante Fe, New Mexico resident (Odometer: 0 miles)June 3, 2010: Oklahoma tax commission record shows it was titled by the owner I purchased it from (Odometer: 6,814 miles)July 7, 2012: I purchased it from the second owner, who was now in Springfield, Missouri (Odometer: 8,113 miles)July 7, 2012: Replaced battery at a dealer in Springfield, Missouri before riding back to Texas (Odometer: 8,121 miles)July 10, 2012: After riding it to Houston, Texas, took it to British USA for a full inspection and service (Odometer: 8,785 miles)January 18, 2013: 12,000 mile service performed at British USA in Houston, Texas (Odometer: 11,530 miles)June 15, 2013: I was shipped overseas for work and the bike was professionally stored (fuel drained and battery disconnected) in a custom built container in a climate controlled facility (paid for by my company) in Houston (Odometer: 12,476 miles)July 20, 2014: I was shipped back to the states, but to the Bay Area instead of Houston, and the bike was shipped in its custom built storage container to me (Odometer: 12,476 miles)August 1, 2014: Took the bike to Ace Motorsports in Concord, California for a new set of tires, oil change, chain service, and full check-up.

I love this bike, but I am selling because I have purchased a touring bike to accommodate longer distance commutes (50+ miles) and more storage capacity. Local pick up or buyer arranges shipping after full payment. I am willing to leave the plates on for the purchaser to drive away with, but only if I am able to make a copy of the bill of sale with your license (in case anything happens so I have proof of date and time of sale).
