Triumph Trident description

1974 TRIUMPH Trident T150V

Up for auction we have a Classic Triumph Trident T150V  750

This bike is a nice barn find as found. It appears to be in a " mostly original" state with a few exceptions and/or upgrades. It's a kick & go machine. You classic guys will know the drill of tickle the carbys and kick. When done properly the machine fires up effortlessly.

here a few details:

The seat is a factory Triumph seat and functions fine, however it isn't the T150 seat and does have a piece of black tape (see pictures)on the back of it. Under the hinged seat, there are a few sections of replacement wire. Our guess is at some point the sections had become brittle from the heat generated and needed to be replaced.

The front brake master cylinder has been refitted with typical Triumph new re issue equipment and works well. The front wheel bearing are fresh sealed replacements. The steering neck bearings are rideable but notchy and should be upgraded to tapered cups & bearings if the new owner intends to put any serious miles in.

We are selling this bike for a customer, and have tried to portray  the bikes condition as accurate as possible. If you have a question , feel free to ask before bidding and we will do our best to  get back to you with an answer. This bike will be a nice addition to a collection as is, to restore if you like, or simply care for it and ride as meant to be.

ATTENTION BIDDERS:

-This is a NO RESERVE auction/ US ONLY/ No International sales

-No trades/ prefer item pickup but will work with your shipper.

-We offer no crating service

  To be paid in full via PayPal or certified cashiers check within 3 days of auction end.

Blind Man To Race Motorcycle At Bonneville Salt Flats Using GPS – Video

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

The Bonneville Salt Flats represents unique challenges, where man-made machines try and go faster than ever before. It’s a demanding event for both man and machine, which provides stories of ultimate triumphs or devastating failures. The 2013 BUB Motorcycle Speed Trials, which takes place throughout this week, will provide another such story of triumph or sorrow, as a blind man will attempt to race down the famous course.

Motorcycle Live and a few of my favourite things for 2013

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

There is lots of shiny new metal on show at Motorcyclelive this year but for me it’s the new Triumph Daytona 675 that steals the show.  We’ve been starved of brand new models in the Supersports segment for years but for me the latest Trumpet has made the wait worthwhile. And if its performance matches its looks then I reckon the 2013 bike of the year is a foregone conclusion.  The sleek curvy nose contrasts perfectly with the more pointy angular rear end and new side mounted silencer. It is lighter, more powerful and revs harder with much work on on mass centralisation to further improve handling.  Few of us have a whole lot of spare cash these days but £8899 for the standard model seems a fair price for such an awesome bike. That said I’d have to consider selling the granny and granddad to find the extra £1700 for the 675R.  Available early next year, and surely the perfect all round track day tool, this beauty comes with upgraded suspension, brakes, ABS, a quickshifter and some nice carbon detailing. The white 675R on display at the show looked even better in the flesh than previous images I’d seen so be careful or you might find yourself handing over a deposit. With no money left from the Triumph stand you’ll need your six special numbers to come up for my second favourite show item the AGV Pista GP Project 46. Although road legal this extremely light, full carbon helmet is designed especially for racing with a huge field of vision, extensive ventilation and superb ergonomics. It also comes with earplugs which suggests there may be some compromise in the noise department but it is still an incredible piece of engineering. At £799, this special Pista is also an incredible price but there will only be one hundred available and Raceways Yamaha reckon they are going fast.
