Vintage 1968 Triumph Bonneville T120R 650cc - Numbers Matching Project Rebuilt

Bike is in overall good shape for its age.  This was a project that was abandoned at some point.  I believe the previous owner got the frame powder coated and rebuilt the engine.  Looking through the spark plug hole, I saw that the pistons are .010 over, and are brand new.  Valve guides are new as well.  All of which leads me to believe that this motor is in fact rebuilt.  It may need a gasket kit to be safe.  To make this bike a roller, I installed new fork tubes, seal holders and seals, and converted the neck bearings to the tapered roller style.  Rear shocks are vintage Koni pieces.  Tank and fender match, and tank is very clean inside.  I bought this to build into a scrambler, but it's now taking up space in the garage.  I have a clean, notarized AZ title from the previous owner.

Buyer to pay $500 NON REFUNDABLE deposit at the end of the auction with balance due within 7 days unless prior arrangements are made.

Buyer to arrange shipping or pick up from Tucson, AZ.  I can deliver within a reasonable distance for a fee.  

PLEASE NOTE:  I WILL BE OUT OF TOWN WHEN THIS AUCTION ENDS. I WILL BE IN THE WEST VIRGINIA AREA,  IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS BUYER I MAY BE ABLE TO LOAD IN MY TRUCK AND TAKE IT WITH ME FOR DELIVERY.

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

AMA Hall of Fame member Craig Vetter will be the featured guest at its annual AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Breakfast at Daytona, on Friday, March 14, at 7:00 a.m., at the Daytona 500 Club on the infield at Daytona International Speedway.  “Craig Vetter’s impact is far-reaching, starting with the design of the iconic Windjammer fairings of the 1970s, continuing with motorcycle designs like the Triumph X-75 Hurricane and the limited-edition ‘Mystery Ship,’ and enduring more recently with a resurrected series of motorcycle fuel economy runs that push the boundaries of everyday streamlining,” said Jeff Heininger, chairman of the American Motorcycle Heritage Foundation, which oversees the Hall of Fame. “We’re proud to host motorcycling’s design professor emeritus for this year’s Breakfast at Daytona.” Taking place during 2014 Daytona Bike Week, the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Breakfast at Daytona fundraiser will feature a live interview with Vetter on stage, an audience Q&A period and an autograph session with Vetter and other Hall of Famers in attendance. The event is open to the public, and tickets are available now at www.motorcyclemuseum.org.

Akrapovic full system for Triumph Daytona 675

Tue, 28 Jun 2011

From Akrapovic is a new full system for the Triumph 675 Daytona: After extensive research and development with the Smiths (Gloucester) Racing team, Akrapovic have now launched a full system for the popular 675 Daytona. Although the bike has been available since 2006 Akrapovic have only ever offered a slip-on silencer option, electing not to develop a full racing system for this bike. However, after unprecedented demand from the WSS and BSS paddock for racing products the decision was made to develop a full racing system in a modular format that allows the headers to be added to existing customer’s slip-on kits.
