Description

UP FOR BID: 71 TRIUMPH CHOP. THIS IS A ONE KICK. EXCELLENT RUNNING BIKE. FRESH TOPEND. ABOUT 900 MILES ON IT. JUST ENOUGH TIME TO PROPERLY BREAK IT IN AND PERFORM REQUIRED BREAK IN MAINTENANCE. JUST RODE IT TO THE KENTUCKY KICKDOWN (ABOUT 400 MILES ROUND TRIP) WHERE IT TOOK HOME THE BEST BOBBER AWARD. BIKE RAN BEAUTIFULLY. HAS ALSO WON AWARDS AT THE REDNECK RUMBLE. AND SPRING THAW. BIKE IS TITLED IN MY NAME. MY INTENTION WAS TO BUILD A BIKE THAT WAS A LITTLE BIT RATTY. AND A LITTLE BIT CANDY. SOMETHING THAT LOOKS RIDDEN. THAT YOU CAN RIDE HARD. AND STILL HAVE A SEXY SHOW WINNING BIKE.  CONTINUOUS LOOP HARDTAIL. HAS AN EVO HARLEY NARROW GLIDE FRONTEND THATS BEEN CHOPPED ABOUT 2" UNDER. BIKE TRACKS VERY STRAIGHT AND TRUE. RE-LACED THE FRONT HARLEY HUB WITH BRAND NEW 21" CHROME RIM AND SPOKES. WITH DISC BRAKES UP FRONT. IVE ALWAYS HATED MUCKING UP A COOL SET OF BARS WITH A BIG UGLY MASTER CYLINDER SO I USED A HARLEY REAR CYLINDER MOUNTED TO THE FRAME BEHIND THE FOOT BRAKE PEDAL. MODIFIED THE REAR BRAKE ACTUATOR TO OPERATE THE FRONT BRAKE AS WELL. IT WORKS GREAT. IT LEADS WITH THE REAR. PUSH A LITTLE HARDER AND IT ACTIVATES THE FRONT. IT WILL STOP ON A DIME. CUSTOM MADE PIPES OUT OF OLD EXHAUST. ALL TIG WELDED USING STAINLESS FILLER TO KEEP IT FROM RUSTING AT THE JOINTS. BRASS TIPS FROM LOWBROW AND LOLI-POPS. DID THE BARS TO MATCH USING STAINLESS TUBE. ON THESE PARTS I LIKE TO SEE THE WELDS. AND JUST LIKE THE RUSTIC FEEL IT ADDS. IF SOMEBODY WANTED TO THEY COULD EASILY BE CHROMED. THE SISSY BAR I MADE OUT OF 1/2" STAINLESS AND THEN POLISHED TO A HIGH SHINE. THE OIL TANK IS MADE OUT OF STAINLESS AS WELL BUT I DIDNT POLISH IT. COULD EASILY BE DONE IF YOU LIKE THAT. I LIKED THE WAY IT LOOKED. I MADE IT TO ACTUAL TRIUMPH SPECS AS FAR AS TUBING THICKNESS AND REDUCE TO 3/32 AT THE END OF THE RETURN FEED AS TO ADD THE BACKPRESSURE TO FEED THE ROCKERS. IN ADDITION I MADE A SEPARATE VENT ON TOP FOR THE CRANKCASE BREATHER TO BREATH THROUGH THE OIL TANK VENT. WHICH ALSO LEAVES THE EXCESS OIL BLOWN OUT OF THE CRANKCASE VENT RIGHT BACK IN THE OIL TANK. I PUT AN OLD (ORIGINAL) PANHEAD TOOLBOX ON THE RIGHT SIDE TO HOLD THE TOOL NECESSITIES. REMOTE OIL FILTER THAT USES HARLEY SPORTSTER FILTERS. MINI BATES STYLE L. E. D. TAILLIGHT.  THE HEADLIGHT IS SOMETHING I HAD LAYING AROUND. HAS A LITTLE BIT OF RASH ON THE TOP SIDE OF THE RING. GAS TANK IS A NARROW WASSEL RE-POP. REAR FENDER IS A SPUN ALUMINUM DUCKBILL FENDER FROM SEVEN METAL WEST. BIKE HAS A NICE GEL BATTERY. NEVER HAD ANY CHARGING SYSTEM PROBS AT ALL. I PREFER POINTS. SO BIKE HAS POINTS ON IT. I MADE THE SEAT. ITS ACTUALLY NOT BAD ON THE OL BUM. BRAND NEW SET  OF PWK CARBS. TUNED AND READY. NEW TIRES FRONT AND BACK. AVON SPEEDMASTER UP FRONT. AND SHINKO DOUBLE WHITE PINS ON THE BACK. THE PAINT IS ALL GOLD METAL FLAKE WITH HOUSE OF KOLOR KANDY. AND TOP OF THE LINE DUPONT CLEAR. ONE SHOT ON THE FENDER. IF YOURE NOT COOL WITH THE PAINT ON THE FENDER. IT WOULD EASILY COME OFF. AND YOUD BE LEFT WITH A POLISHED ALUMINUM FENDER. THINK THATS ABOUT IT. SURE IM FORGETTING SOME STUFF. BUT YOU GET THE GIST. PLEASE DO NOT ASK WHAT THE RESERVE IS. ITS SET VERY LOW. IT WOULD PROB COST TWICE WHAT THE RESERVE IS FOR ME TO BUILD THIS BIKE FOR SOMEONE. IVE HAD SOME FUN WITH THIS BIKE. NOW ITS SOMEONE ELSES TURN. NOTE: THIS IS A CASH ONLY. SEALED WITH A HANDSHAKE DEAL. NO SHIPPING. NO EXCEPTIONS. YOU MUST COME PICK IT UP IN PERSON. OR I CAN DELIVER WITHIN A REASONABLE DISTANCE FOR A PREPAID FEE. $200 DEPOSIT REQUIRED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF END OF AUCTION. THIS JUST ASSURES ME THAT YOU ARE COMING. IF WHEN YOU GET HERE YOU DECIDE YOU DO NOT WANT THE BIKE. NO SWEAT. NO HARD FEELINGS. I WILL REFUND THE DEPOSIT AT THIS POINT. AND WE CAN MARK THE SALE AS INCOMPLETE. FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS I WILL ANSWER AS PROMTLY AS POSSIBLE. PLEASE SEE VIDEO AND PICTURES BELOW. THANKS. J RYAN
