Vehicle Description
1955 Triumph T100, extensively rebuilt. This is a kick start only, right hand shift, matching numbers bike. Not for the beginner. New Black Paint. VERY STRONG 650 pre unit engine with 4 speed transmission. Rebuilt magneto, new wiring with 6 volt, positive ground solid state voltage regulator, and new battery. New down pipes, period correct Lucas bumble bee wires. Engine was rebuilt built by Don Hutchison (www.triumphman.com) in 2002 and ridden very little since. New parts includes nacelle, tail light, replaced speedometer (original milage unknown), controls, handlebars, cables, rear shocks, new Amal carburetor, after market side stand (bike had only center stand), and pedestrian slicer (front license plate). I love this bike and hate to sell it. 2 back operations and I can no longer ride. It literally stops traffic where ever I go. Won the only show I entered. Bike has some very minor marks, drips oil a little when it sits awhile, (not a leak, but out the breather tube), but hey its British, they all leak. VERY LOUD. I can be reached by cell 717 398 6061, bike is located in Chambersburg Pa. I encourage you to see in person, no joy rides. Bring a trailer. May help with delivery.

>The bike is currently licensed, insured and inspected in Pennsylvania. The title is clear and in my name. The bike starts on the first or second kick, idles great with lots of spark and the battery charges as it should. Clutch works well and bike shifts easily., Brakes work great. I am a safe mature rider, I never laid it down, or abused it, though I did have it up to 90MPH once. I have a few spares I will throw in, new clutch rubbers from Rask cycle which I never got around to installing, a modern set of studded saddlebags which look great on the bike. I have the original air filter which I removed and replaced with a screened velocity stack. I also have the original voltage regulator, some choose to hide the podtronics unit inside for a stock show bike. .Also included are various bits and pieces and 3 manuals, Haynes workshop manual,Triumph workshop manual and a Triumph parts book. The only marks on the bike is minor paint rubs that on the inside of the front forks. Tank and fenders are flawless. Paint is a professionally done 2 stage process that shines like crazy. As you can tell I've done a lot to get this bike running great, I really wish I wasn't sell it, I looked for months before I found it and traveled hundred of miles to get it. I know I'll never get what I have into it, but it's time to pass it on to some one else who appreciate the timeless beauty and power of this British Icon.
