Triumph Speed Triple description

Very low mileage 1999 Triumph Speed Triple in Roulette Green purchased new by me.  In excellent like-new condition; no accidents, no damage, never dropped, no known problems.  All work and yearly full servicing done by California Triumph, Mountain View, California.  Have receipts, original 1999 factory brochure and catalog, owners manual, etc.  Has clear California title, license and registration paid through August 2014. Always stored in my garage when not being ridden.  Has the stock fuel injected 955cc triple. It is a fast, fun, reliable bike to ride.  Due to health issues I am no longer able to ride the bike.

Beware buying any "older" bike with the original Nylon fuel tank.  Aprillia, Triumph, KTM, MZ, Moto Guzzi, Ducati and other bikes of the era came with nylon gas tanks that would deform and eventually leak after 10-15 years.  Check out deformedfueltanks.com

New factory gas tank installed earlier this year by the dealer ($1400).  Found a local source of 100 Octane "race" gas without Ethanol which I use exclusively.

Many extras included; those installed were done by the selling dealer.

Factory Triumph parts installed:
- Front fork protectors
- Upgraded shift mechanism (from 2000 Speed Triple)
- Carbon fiber chain guard
- Quick release front seat kit
- Factory tool kit (many bikes did not come with this)
- Rear seat eliminator

Factory Triumph parts purchased but not installed:
- Rear "grab rail" (complete kit in factory box)
- Front "shield" (complete kit)
- Removable gas tank bag (velcro attachments mount harness around gas tank)
- Rear luggage bags (never used; easy to install/remove)
- Rear area screen ventilation (complete kit in factory box)

Non-factory parts:
- New Metzeler Roadtec Z6 sport touring tires (f:120/70ZR17, r:190/50ZR17)
- Smaller mirrors (stock mirrors included)
- Custom Corbin "front saddle" single front seat (installed)
- Aftermarket front "shield" (installed)
- Alternator cover (installed)
- Rear brake light blinking unit (installed)
- Battery slow charge/charge keeper (for long term storage)

The Corbin front seat, rear seat eliminator, and the stock front and rear seats can be mixed to provide a number of different combinations which I have tried to show in the pictures.

Price William The Duke Of Ducs And Other Motorcycles

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, visited Britain’s largest motorcycle show, Motorcycle Live, at the National Exhibition Center in Birmingham. The visit saw the Duke astride numerous motorcycle models including UK icons Norton and Triumph as well as a Ducati 1199 Superleggera (one of the few men able to afford the $70,000 rarity). During his visit Prince William enjoyed a display of off-road riding – one of nine opportunities for visitors to ride at Motorcycle Live, eight of which are inside the halls of the NEC. He also met Dean Linehan, exhibitions director of MCI Exhibitions, the company that organizes the annual motorcycle exhibition.
