1971 TRIUMPH T120R BONNEVILLE 650 TRIKE PROJECT

CLASSIC 3-WHEELER WITH EXTENDED FORKS

NO RESERVE - YOU BID, YOU WIN! * * * PRICE LOWERED * * * 

CHASSIS & BRACKETS - Custom made trike raked chassis with extended forks and "live" axle.

SUSPENSION - Front forks need total overhaul, no rear suspension.

WHEELS, BRAKES & TIRES - NO WORKING BRAKES. Rear sprocket can accept disc brake caliper; front brakes need total overhaul. Mercury Marquis "snowflake" alloy rear wheels. Tires had good tread, but are old.

ENGINE - Appears all original. I have not opened the engine, but would recommend a total overhaul.

Intake & Exhaust - Mikuni carbs in good shape with UNI foam filters. Basic straight pipes with open mini-megaphones.

Ignition - Original points & condensers

HAND & FOOT CONTROLS - Original footpegs, no shifter or brake pedal. Handlebars may not be exactly as in photo, but will be good bars, not bent or rusted.

NO ELECTRICAL, LIGHTING, METERS, CABLES OR DRIVE CHAIN.

BODYWORK - Vintage "peanut" style tank of unknown origin. No fenders no sidecover. Oil tank with rough paint. Groovy "king & queen" seat in fair shape, fits a keg underneath just right. I had the idea of installing a hinge at the front of the seat to tip it forward, then saw the keg in half and convert it to a BBQ grille. I also had the idea of making up two "quick release" sub-frames with tank, seat, handlebars and footpegs, to have 2 passengers (one over each rear wheel) as if they were also riding bikes.

OTHER - No title, you're on your own. It's very easy to obtain titles from certain states for motorcycles older than 25 years.

SHIPPING - NOT INCLUDED. I highly recommend Keyboard Motorcycle Shipping to the buyer's door, insured. I can disassemble and/or crate the bike FOR AN ADDITIONAL FEE.

Price now lowered to less than the value of the engine alone. I don't part out bikes, so this is the last chance.

BOTTOM LINE

As with every bike, project and part I’ve sold online in over 15 years (with 100% satisfaction), the above listing contains no hype, no fluff and NO BULL. 

SOLD AS-IS. ALL SALES FINAL, NO RETURNS, NO REFUNDS. 

I've lowered the price to the value of the ENGINE ALONE. Somebody is getting a free trike chassis.

Thanx for looking and bidding.

Twin-Engined Triumph Rocket Streamliner To Challenge Motorcycle Land-Speed Record At Bonneville

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

The 1,000-horsepower Castrol Rocket is currently undergoing testing for its upcoming assault on the land speed record of 376.156 mph, set in 2010, by Rocky Robinson with the Ack Attack streamliner. The goal: a 400-mph-plus record-breaking run. The 25-foot long x 2-foot wide x 3-foot high streamliner was constructed in cooperation by Hot Rod Conspiracy and Carpenter Racing and will compete in the Division C (Streamlined) – Type V (5) Spark Ignition, Over 2,000cc to 3,000cc class. Powering the Rocket are two heavily modified Triumph Rocket III engines. Each Carpenter Racing built engine was reduced from 2,294cc to 1,485cc (2,970cc total) to meet the 3,000cc maximum total displacement class rule requirement. While piston size remains the same stock 4-inch bore, stroke was reduced from 3.75 inches to 2.4 inches and redline increased from 5,750 rpm to 9,000+ rpm. There’s also one Garrett GT2876R ball bearing, liquid-cooled turbocharger per engine.

Thirty-two years after his death, Steve McQueen still reigns as the coolest movie star to ever ride a motorcycle. One of his preferred brands was Husqvarna (another, seen here, was Triumph) and to the delight of motorcycle enthusiasts and McQueen fans alike, one of his bikes will soon be in the hands of a new owner. This 1970 Husqvarna 400 Cross owned and ridden by Steve McQueen will be up for auction on January 10th, at Bally’s Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, by Bonhams. The motorcycle comes with an exhaustive quantity of documents supporting its provenance and authenticity.
