Just Got A T100 Need Id Help & Questions.

[Scaleman]

Hi All.. I Just got a Triumph 500 Frame & Motor Stamped GD 55525 T100C Has Recon PA Title From '75. Any Idea What Year I Have? I Need to know what battery will fit. I think its 12 volt Positive Ground??? I had a 650 30 years ago, but it had a Capacitor. Can I just put a Capacitor in this one maybe? I see them on ebay. Thanks for any help.

it looks to be June 1970 - see dating of triumph on this site Triumph Dating Information
it will be 12 volt positive earth. No idea on the capacitor.

Thanks. I Thought is was Positive Ground. Looks like whoever rewired this used Yellow wire for positive & Red wire for Negative.
Keeps popping fuse. Appreciate the Date help, too.
