The Triumph of eBay!

After a long month of reading and shopping and searching through the classifieds and many other sources, I’ve bought a motorcycle! Not what I first started off at, but perhaps a better purchase overall. I’ve put money down on a project bike, a "parts bike" – a 1970 Triumph Trophy 500 – aka T100C. Its very much like the first Triumph I had in school … a bike I rode to Myrtle Beach one very long Labor Day weekend. The bike I’m getting needs a battery, paint, better tires and some finessing to get it running – but its a great start for a 33 year old bike (Manufactured date Feb 1970).
I have visions of cleaning it up and stripping it down like some of the leaned down bikes
on this site …
– like a 500cc version of this one
