I picked up my 72 nd birthday present to myself this afternoon. It is a 1967 Triumph T100C appears to be in very decent shape. All the right mod's to include electronic ignition, belt driven primary, and recent 40 over top end rebuild. For some unknown reason, very well could be senility, I decided I needed another vintage Triumph after going for a number of years with a fairly oil free garage floor. I am going to personalize it a bit to my tastes, larger aggressive tires, tank pads, and maybe even a pedestrian slicer showing the model. BTW, this is same model bike that the Fonz rode in a season or two of Happy Days, I am already much cooler because at least I do know how to ride. Going to start cleaning tomorrow and spend the morning digging out the Whitworth wrenches.....

I have made a few little modifications that tend to make it slightly louder and suited to my personal tastes. It is sacrilege to have a high pipe bike that doesn't have fat knobbys, make noise, and throw in a pedestrian slicer added for good measure.....
