1969 Triumph T100C 500 Trophy Unregistered US Import
As you may or may not know, here at DK Motorcycles we have very little knowledge or experience with these classic British bikes but luckily you aficionados usually put us right!. While this bike has age about it, it hasn’t stood forever as there is life in the battery, fresh fuel in the tank & reasonable tyres fitted. The silencers are after market & the carburettor is sticking.
But now for the good news………This is the actual bike you are bidding on – Not library pictures from 53 years ago & it is every bit as nice as it looks here…..A true time warp machine!. The wheels are straight with nice clean chrome rims, good hubs & brake plates. Forks & yokes look straight. Mudguards are both solid & are very tidy. Taillight assy is good as are the headlight & hangers. Instruments & switches look great. Paintwork is solid, fuel tank is useably clean inside. Exhausts are solid. Seat is in very good condition throughout. Chain guard is tidy. The engine is cosmetically very clean, it turns over nicely off the kick starter – sounds/feels great & has compression BUT BEST OF ALL when we gave it a few prods it fires, starts & runs but it is obvious the carb need attention.
