Triumph Other description

This is the last and best of my collector bikes as I’m regretfully retiring from my ownership of these fine vintage motorcycles do to personal reasons. I’ve held on to this TR5T Trophy Trail the longest because it is easy to start (the 500s are much easier than the 650s and 750s). This bike has been in collector caring ownership it’s entire life. I purchased it from a collector out on the west coast a few years ago. She’s always been garaged in climate controlled environment.  The only parts that have been replaced since original purchase are the front tire, tube and battery…just done this year. I have originals if interested. No reproduction parts. She's 100 percent original overall.  

This gorgeous Trophy Trail runs and rides like the day it was purchased from the dealer. It’s looks are like fine jewelry with the polished aluminum and perfect chrome throughout. It will start on first or second kick and best of all the clutch doesn’t drag from being out of adjustment like so many Triumphs are.

This may be the nicest unrestored original survivor Trophy Trail in the country. The 1,873 miles logged on the odometer is genuine. Every nut, screw and bolt is original and has never been removed or messed with since the factory. Please look at the pics of the screws on the engine carefully.

This is a matching numbers 1973 bike. The frame and engine numbers match. The number is PH19025. I will mention that I do have a title that is open and clean. It is titled as a 1974. This was perfectly normal as many Triumph dealers sold the bikes later in the next year. I have a ’67 Triumph TR4 sports car that is titled as a 1968. Same situation.

I have drained the gas tank for shipment. I can be reached at 478 957 9778 for questions and specifics. If you have an genuine offer or if you need full sized pics please call.

There is no warranty either stated or implied. This vehicle is being sold in "as is" condition.

A $250 deposit will be required at the end of the auction. The remainder to be paid in full within seven (7) days after auction.

New Delhi Auto Expo 2012 – Motorcycle Manufacturers Draw Battle Lines for World’s Second Largest Market

Mon, 09 Jan 2012

In past years, the biennial Auto Expo in India slipped under the radar while the industry was focused more on shows such as EICMA in Italy and Intermot in Germany. But with India’s middle class starting to flex its financial muscle while other markets continue to struggle, the New Delhi show is becoming much more prominent, with major OEMs positioning themselves to claim a piece of the India’s 13 million vehicles-a-year market. We’ve already looked at India-produced Royal Enfield’s new Thunderbird 500 and Hero Moto’s hybrid scooter concept which debuted at the Auto Expo, and today we’ll look at what the major international OEMs presented.

2014 Triumph America Horizon Revealed in CARB Documentation

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

New documents released by the California Air Resources Board reveal the existence of a new model from Triumph to be called the America Horizon for the 2014 model year. As its name implies, the 2014 Triumph America Horizon will likely be based on the existing Triumph America (the 2012 America is pictured above with touring accessories as an illustration.) The CARB documents confirm it will use the same 865cc parallel-Twin engine as the America as well as the Bonneville, Scrambler, Thruxton and the Speedmaster. We predict a claimed output of 60hp at 6800rpm and 53 ft-lb.
