    Same familiar story, I got this many years ago and planned to restore it but never did. It's a good project base, very clean, original and complete, little/no rust. Ready for an enthusiast to get it going. Posting this here with hopes that Triumph enthusiast will be interested. It's a good bike - I'd hate to donate it to my radio station for a tax write off.

    I've got more pictures and/or can take more.

    Electrical in basic working order. I bought a new battery a bit ago. The headlight works, not sure about turn signals never put in bulbs.
    Has spark both cylinders
    Has compression (by feel)
    No rust in gas tank
    Front brake needs new master cylinder
    Didn't have air box covers when I got it so I purchased some on ebay, that's why they don't match
    Spare bits shown in the picture
    Have a clean title
    $2000 OBO
