LMAO novafrk
Don't worry sausage I sprayed it with jaguar repellent
When I first saw pics of the bike I thought painting would be my first project. However it has grown on me since then. At least I won't lose it in a parking lot of cookie cutter bikes ; )
It has been in storage for the last 8 years. I am going through it before riding it everyday.

I love Triumphs no matter how much they have been disfigured through frame or paint modifications! I can bet people will not forget that bike after seeing it. |

That's the one, the engine was rebuilt by a guy that raced triumph's in the Milwalkee area. The owner said there were a couple of mods, oversized piston's and norton pea shooter pipes/silencers which have a larger diameter than the original triumph pipes. It has 3,000 since the rebuild. It came with several shop and parts manuals and a box of parts. It turned out to be a good buy.

Very cool. I thought it sounded like a good deal when I saw it but the wife put the kabosh on my plans of getting it... said I needed to finish the one I had... stupid making sense...

I hate making sense ...... there's a time for making sense and a time for buying motorcycles.  |

Love the paint! With it's age, you should rename it the Triumph Cougar.
