Triumph Bonneville description

This is a very nice 2010 Triumph Thruxton Special Edition.  

**NO RESERVE**:  I feel the starting bid price is more than fair.

COPYRIGHT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT:  One of the photos is a stock Triumph photo. Since it was published as part of their public marketing campaign back in 2009, I will assume it is, at this point, public domain and it is published only to direct the buyer to Triumph's factory photos.

I am the original owner and I've decided that I just don't ride enough to justify withholding it from the younger folks out there who will put it to good use.  As I recall, I had to "preorder" this bike, and place 50% down in December of 2009 and it wasn't delivered until July of 2010.  From what I was told, each Triumph dealer received one, and only one, Thruxton Special Edition.

This is a real head turner:  Powercoated red frame, sparkly white factory paint, and a red racing stripe.    I am extremely OCD when it comes to maintenance of my machines and the bike has spent its entire life covered and garaged.  Mechanically, this bike is basically brand new, with the following accessories and exceptions:

1.  Centerstand
2.  Removed Air Injection and wired in a resistor to "fool" the Fuel Injection ECU.  Standard AI removal kit from British Customs with a custom resistor (you had to make your own back in '10).
3.  I also purchased a set of slip-on D&D exhausts, but the centerstand can't be used when they are mounted.  Since I religiously oil and clean the chain, and I'm getting old and see no need to be loud, I opted to shelve the D&Ds and keep the centerstand.  The D&D slip-ons are included in the deal (as well as the box-o-stuff I removed from the bike).  I figure a kid might want something like them on the bike.
4.  Removed all the cheeseball reflector stickers (also in the box-o-stuff)

This motorcycle is VERY RARE.  Now I'm not going to BS you and tell you it has any performance above and beyond that of a standard Thruxton, but what I will tell you is that to create a paint scheme like this one has would cost thousands (powdercoated red frame) and it wouldn't be factory.

Title is free and clear, this bike has never been damaged, dropped, or ridden hard.  I recognize the motorcycle's rarity and have treated it appropriately.  It even has the original tires.  Helps that its not my only ride.

I am not including the cover, I intend on using it for my other motorcycle.  

WHY I AM SELLING:  I'm getting older and I just don't ride as much as I used to.  This is a beautiful machine that needs to be owned by someone who will appreciate and ride it, not by some old guy who watches it sit under a cover all day.  I refuse to be that "old guy" who hoards things that are meant to be used by young people.  This is the second to last motorcycle left from my collection and was one of my most prized motorcycles.

Note:  The ONLY issue with this motorcycle is that it is dusty.  Nothing a six-pack of beer, some terry cloth, and soap and water wouldn't take care of.  Even though I don't ride it regularly, I religiously change the oil every 12 months and wax the chain every 12 months.  It is spun up and ridden around my local airfield at least every 3 months.  Replaced the battery recently.

Also, the check engine light is on in the ODO photo because I only turned the key to the "on" position to get the reading.  No lights or warnings when the bike is running.

It has literally EVERY scrap of paper, spare keys, and all other accessories associated with the purchase, ownership, registration, etc. of the motorcycle.  You would literally be handed exactly what I was given when I bought it new off the line.

FINALLY:  Ebay is notorious for foreign bidders and scammers.  Thus, NO NON-US BIDS WILL BE CONSIDERED.  Also, I am listing this motorcycle in other places, so, if you message me, I'll be happy to provide you a buy-it-now price and keep in mind that it might get sold from somewhere else besides ebay.

2013 Triumph Tiger Sport Announced

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

Triumph revealed a new version of its 1050cc Tiger named the Tiger Sport. Triumph currently lists this new Tiger Sport beside its Tiger 1050 on the Triumph website’s 2013 offerings but the new model appears to be a replacement for the previous model which has been relatively unchanged since its introduction in 2007. Officially unveiled at the Brussels Motor Show, the 2013 Triumph Tiger Sport receives new body panels, tail and windscreen but perhaps the most notable design change is the new single-sided swingarm which better shows off the black cast aluminum alloy multi-spoke rear wheel.

Watch: 2011 Speed Triple Dyno run

Tue, 05 Apr 2011

With the full factory fitted arrow system and map fitted it was time to give the Speed a run on a Dyno to see where the power is at. Over two runs the best results were as follows; Power at the crank : 130bhp & 75 ft.lbs torque Power at the gearbox : 124bhp & 72 ft.lbs torque Power at the wheel : 119bhp & 69 ft.lbs torque The bike has covered 4200 miles and is due its first proper service at 6000 so you would expect to see a reduction in power. Triumph claim on a brand new bike the Speed Triple at best puts out 135bhp and 82 ft.lbs torque at the crank with the cans fitted, effectively mine has lost 5bhp and 7ft.lbs of torque.
