Description:
|
This black beauty is in terrific condition. Never laid down! No stunting or other abuse. Adult-owned. (I’m in my 30’s with kid) Always garaged or covered. New tires with less than 1000mi. Only Mobil 1 Synthetic Racing Oil used. Very unique with the blacked out frame, the first and last time it was done on the 955i, before becoming standard on the 1050.

Sexy single-sided swing-arm, the poster-child of the naked bike category, and the one that really started the hooligan era and the street-fighter category!
You won't see another Special Edition like this for sale anytime soon! I still prefer the overall dimensions of the 955 over the 1050. I’m not into the stubby Buell look, nor the faux-under-seat exhausts. If you’re going to do under-seat, then do under-seat, or switch to a single-sided race pipe, like the one here! Plus there's the insurance break you get for having less than a 1-Liter engine capacity!
I've babied her, kept the fluid and tire pressure where they should be, and the chain lubed up with premium synthetic spray. I even had her in to Triumph of Manhattan for the 6k mi service early. Even though she wasn't due, I figured I'd do one every riding season. The owner’s book is stamped with the entire service history, so there is absolutely nothing to worry about!
Extras included:
Clear Aftermarket Headlights (more modern looking)
Official Triumph Flyscreen (yes, you can tuck behind it!)
Official Triumph Racing carbon exhaust (awesome sound, not too loud!)
Official Triumph Brand belly pan (tidies up the bottom big-time!)
Official Triumph rear-wheel hubcap (classy)
Official Triumph Seat Cowl (passenger seat too)
Pazzo black shorty levers (have the stock ones if you prefer them)
Smoked indicator lights front and rear (have stock ones)
Rear fender eliminator (who’d want that 10-ft long stock fender? Yuck!)
Speed King bar-end mirrors (I have the stock mirrors if you want them)
K&N Air Filter (I have the original)
As I said above, I have the stock parts, but I will leave as is (classy, yet more modern and aggressive looking) for you, the new owner.
I won't go too deep into the specifications, as I'm sure if you're looking at this ad and you've read this far - that you've done your research. Do note that the 04 Model has the more efficient digital speedo/analog tach, which I think is the best combo!
With over 120 screaming horses, this bike is as raw as they come. Brutal when you want to be, but well-behaved in stop and go traffic. The torque, the sound (an exotic banshee howl is the best description!), and the leverage with the high street bars are all very addictive. One ride up to Bear Mountain (or insert twisty road of your choice) and you'll be hooked - I was! I went from a 400cc Honda to this with no problem! Zero to 60 in less than 3.5 seconds, ¼ mile in 11's @ over 115mph! That’s faster than a Z06 or a 911 Turbo! Want to stay ahead of traffic? No problemo. And you get respect from the Harley and the Sportbike crowd simultaneously!
Clean title and registration in hand. If you have any questions, or you want to schedule a viewing, just let me know. Sorry, no test-drives at the moment because she is not insured or registered. Title in hand. Get your plate and ride her home, or I will assist with the pickup for the shipper. Good luck bidding and I look forward to hearing from you. This bike is advertised locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early should it sell beforehand. Larry 917-837-3227 LarryTwohig@aol.com
