Description

Bike is fully built in a bobber chopper style, t's kind of a mash between the two. I am actually impressed how comfortable it is to ride, akes medium bumps without issues. Extended hardtail was added, ith the springer front. Everything is either rebuilt or new on the bike. Old triumphs are kickstart only, imps need not apply. Right side shift (opposite japanese/american bikes) and is 1 down 3 up shift pattern. Has clean Indiana Title, bout 50 miles on it since the motor was rebuilt.

Things to be aware of

  • This is an early unit triumph motor where the breather is on the crank. The custom oil tank doesn’t have the ability to accept the breather tube as an input so it is open to the atmosphere. Due to this, nd triumphs butterfly breather valves, ome oil does come out through the tube, nce parked, ou will see a few drops on the ground. This is normal for this motor and setup, f you have an immaculate garage, ut a cookie sheet under it. Triumph later moved the breather into the primary side case and relieved this.

  • The chain is currently in an in between state, t's a bit loose so there is a little bounce to it while the tensioner catches up, ut it's too tight to take another link out (i tried on one chain and couldn’t get it back together). Once the chain stretches a little more from riding, t’ll need a link taken out and then the bounce should be gone. This can easily be done with a grinder or a chain breaking tool.

  • An older exhaust is still on it, here is one rust hole where it was scrapped long ago. I didn’t add a new one as I felt it better to keep the cost down for you and let you pick whatever exhaust you wanted. If you don't want a new exhaust, here isn’t anything wrong with running the one it has.

  • Carb float needle was just replaced with a rubber tiped, ts still in the break in period so there is a slow drip if you leave the petcock on when parked. This should go away once it's seated.

  • There is no battery, owever the reg/rec has a cap built in. when at low idle speed sometimes the turn signals are a bit intermittent. If this bothers you, ou could upgrade to a 16a stator ($120 + about 20min labor) or add a small battery.

I replaced the turn signal bulbs with some new lower wattage LED bulbs, nd they now work well during idle.
