1972 Triumph Daytona T100R

Bike starts and runs like a new one. Stops like a new one and vibrates like a 72 should… lol. Just had new carbs put on it and had to take it to a shop, Vintage Motorcycle of Memphis, to get them adjusted and tuned. Also new Dunlop K80 tires. Too much going on for me to keep it. Paint is rough but original.
This was a barn find that sold at auction.

$4000….

Maybe @Greyfell will chime in here. Think he just had a bike shipped to California from Florida.

I had my 2006 T100 shipped to me from Chicago, seems like it was around $700. Fortunately, only minor surprises on the bike's condition. I guess with an older bike I'd like a little more hands on inspection. So, I'll have to pass on this one.

That’s no problem….

Yes, I had my bike shipped via Uship.com. I thought the rate was reasonable, and bike was very well secured in the closed trailer. They do offer open or closed shipping. The man I worked with, initially, seemed a little pushy, but I realized he was working with a timetable involving other customers, and their shipments, who were in more of a rush than I was (he carries multiple shipments in the one trailer). In the end ,he was a good guy, knew what he was doing, and kept me informed of his progress.
