Bought a 1995 Triumph 1200 Trophy from the daughter of a gentleman that passed away for $3000 with 16,000 miles . Mint condition with Micron Race mufflers which sound great and back fires nicely on down shifting. Came with a Corbin seat. I had Race Tech front springs put in and dual compound tires put on and a total tune up service at I-90 Motorsports near by, supposed to be the biggest Triumph dealer in the US and is 9 miles away. Was very pleased by their service department. This bike kicks ass. I've put 5000 miles on the first month I've had it and does nice first gear power wheelies holding the tire a foot off the ground for half a block.I also put my Valentine 1 radar detector on and matching soft bags. I ride European style,quick and far.Photo's are from a 6 day run from Seattle to Yellowstone and back=2600 miles.

I got a 95 Trophy 4 a few months ago for 4 grand with 8700 on it and picked up a 96 Daytona 4 about 3 weeks ago with 2030 miles on it for 5 grand. I love those 4's, they have lots of guts to them. My Trophy has Microns too and I have Nology coils and wires to put on whenever I get motivated to yank the fairing and tank.

Nice bikes. I've always thought all Triumphs were beautiful bikes, and of course, the Thrux is in a class by itself.
