No pics on this post but I wanted to write an update. One of the first things I always do with a new bike is tear it down. So that's what I did with the Trump. It's torn down and I've just been cleaning it up. Hit the motor with some Scotch Bright and WD40. Cleans up the cases pretty good. doesn't look new but it's not dirty. The big thing though is just ordering all the parts I need to get this great bike up and going again. I've probably spent $500-$600 in parts so far. Here is the list:
Original Taillight
Original Rear Grab Bar
New Dunlop K70's
Tubes
Rim Strips
Throttle Cable
Clutch Cable
Handlebar P Clamp Hardware
Mikuni Carb Intake Manifold
Mikuni VM30 Rebuild Kit
Seat Mount Hardware
New Seat Cover
Original Handlebar Controls
New Rubbers for the Foot Pegs, Shifter and Brake Lever
New Aluminum Fork End Caps
Most of the items were purchased on Ebay however I've ordered half a dozen parts from random websites that happen to have what I need. Only had to order 2 things from the UK.
I don't have a service manual or parts manual but was able find them in PDF format for free on http://www.classicbike.biz/Triumph/Triumph.htm
