1971 Triumph TR6C 650 Trophy – Matchande nummer – Concours-restaurering – UK-registrerad
An exceptional example of the iconic Triumph TR6C 650 Trophy, built in 1971 and widely regarded as one of the finest you will find. This motorcycle features correct matching frame and engine numbers (BE13105TR6C) and has been subject to a full and comprehensive rebuild using original specification components right down to the correct GKN cycle bolts.
Originally despatched new to Triumph Corporation USA and supplied via Bob Leppan’s Triumph, Detroit (World’s Largest Triumph Dealer) — en sällsynt och mycket eftertraktad provenance-detail som fortfarande finns kvar på sidopanelen, senare UK-registrerad och stöds av ett VMCC-dateringscertifikat som bekräftar tillverkning i februari 1971.
Rebuilt by renowned Triumph factory guru Clive Humphries (Coventry) with only circa 600 miles since rebuild. Starts easily, runs beautifully and sounds exactly as a proper British twin should.
