Triumph Tiger description

1958 TRIUMPH TIGER CUB COMPETITION
 Very Nice 

This is a very nice example of the famous Triumph Cub. It is a smaller version of the 500cc Tiger with a single cylinder 200cc engine and 4 speed transmission. This particular version is the desirable T20C or "Competition" model. 

This motorcycle has had a complete engine rebuild by BBC in Ventura, CA. It has new tires, levers and brake/clutch cables. It runs beautifully and has low (probably less than 500) miles on the rebuild. It doesn't smoke or leak. It has been converted to a 12v system and has a small gel battery hidden under the seat. 

Cosmetically, the bike is excellent. It is not perfect, but shows very well. All the paint including the frame is nice and shiny with no orange peel. There are a few very small areas of touchup. The chrome is extremely nice except for a couple of small areas on the rear rim where the chrome is chipped, and some very slight freckling on the headlight rim. Most of the fasteners are either new, re cad plated or re-chromed. The seat upholstery is original and has no tears. The hand grips appear to be original and could be replaced as they are starting to crack. One fork boot has a tear in it. The tank knee grips are brand new, as is the original chrome Ceandess "domed" gas cap.

There is a very reasonable reserve on this auction. It is sold on a bill of sale. A title can be obtained, post auction and AFTER FULL PAYMENT is made-please inquire. This motorcycle is not advertised elsewhere, and this auction is the exclusive opportunity to purchase it. This is a great opportunity to obtain a very desirable classic TRIUMPH.

The TT800 From Deus Ex Machina

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Deus Ex Machina, the surf/moto shop known for creating throwback, one-of-a-kind motorcycles, has released its latest work of art, the TT800. Paying tribute to the highly successful Triumph factory TT machines from the mid-1960s, Deus’ expert builder, Michael Woolaway, created the TT800 for a customer requesting a new, old Triumph. It sources a Kawasaki W650 bored out to 800cc with CR carbs, a custom TT inspired exhaust, custom chromoly racing frame, re-valved Öhlins forks, and a custom gusseted swing arm for more stability. A Beringer six-piston caliper front brake provides stopping power.
