Triumph Tiger description

1966 Triumph T100SC Desert Sled

Bike comes with the original 1966 California Title and Registration. Bike has matching Frame and Engine numbers. Bike was built as a desert sled, and runs great. I did not personally build the bike but here are the things done according to the previous owner:
Original Koni Shocks
XL350 front end ( longer travel, and better brake)
T140 gas tank
Bates style seat
Original Bud Ekins pipes
Mikuni Carburetor
Handmade Aluminum skidplate
Big Bore kit
T120TT rear Fender (Very Rare)
New Tires
Period correct Q-filter/aircleaner/airbox

Im sure there is more that I forgot. Please look at the photos carefully and let me know if you have any questions. I just had the transmission rebuilt due to a false neutral instead of 2nd gear.
Here is a list of the service that was done last week:
Repair/Clean Carburetor
Run Fuel line dual petcock to single
Repair Transmission No 2nd Gear
Clean out Debris Trans Case
Clean out Debris Primary Case
Fabricate Intake Manifold
Shift Forks (2) Shift Shaft & Camplate
Fuel line elbows (3)
New Lock Tab Trans Shaft
Oils
30W Primary Drive
80W Transmission

Bike runs very strong, and is a blast to ride. With a headlight and taillight this bike can be ridden on the street, it was never registered as an Off-Highway vehicle. It does leak quite a bit of oil out of the left side case (Primary oil). It will need a new seal.

Bike is sold AS-IS with no warranty or claims of any kind. This is a 30+ year old motorcycle, and you are responsible for having the bike inspected before purchase and or riding the bike. I require a $500 deposit within 24 hours of auction ending. Buyer is responsible for all shipping fee's, I will do my best to assist any way I can.

Steve McQueen’s Von Dutch Customized Bikes to be Auctioned Tomorrow

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Here’s an opportunity to own motorcycles associated with Steve McQueen and Von Dutch - need we say more? Get your credit cards out because tomorrow, January 9, 2014, will see a 1923 Indian Big Chief with Princess Sidecar owned by McQueen and fully restored by Von Dutch put on the auction block at the Bonhams Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction. Previously sold at the Steve McQueen Estate Sale in Las Vegas in 1984, the 74cu (1200cc) Indian is “capable of reaching speeds of 90mph.” If McQueen’s coolness factor isn’t enough, having the notoriety of Von Dutch’s restoration is the icing on the cake.

Triumph Sets Sales Record but Suffers First Operating Loss Since 2009

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Triumph sold 52,089 motorcycles from its fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, setting a new company record for annual sales. At the same time, the company announced an operating loss of £95,000 (US$155,300), the company’s time in the red since 2009. Much of the operating loss was caused by foreign currency exchanges and the cost of starting up manufacturing facilities in Brazil and India.
