Poking around on eBay I noticed a nice '01 Tbird, very low miles (around 3600) and very low bidding ($3000 so far) with a couple of days to go. If I were in the market this would be tempting.

Take care,

Monte

Bidding was up to $3850 this AM with only 8 hours to go. Would think that under $5k would be a good price. $3850 would be a great price. Be interesting to see what it does go for.

Riding will help straigten out those neck knots, Beems.

Howdy everyone....

Its mine. :hammer:

I was browsing the internet looking for anything related to the Thunderbirds and Google dropped me in here.

All the user testimonials and magazine write-ups on the Tbird seemed to be good. I remember the old 650cc Tbird's from the 1950's and 60's. I had a 1967 Triumph 500cc high pipe, a 1968 Trophy, and a 1971 Bonneville. I sold the two 650's as basket cases about 10 years ago. I rode a Honda 500cc Silverwing for a while and now have a BMW K-bike. I made the mistake of looking at Triumphs today on fleabay and saw this Tbird at a good price and not too far from where I live.

The rest is history, as they say.

I'm going to visit the ebay seller on Sunday and take the bike for a test ride. If its OK, I'll log into paypal and pay for it on the spot, and roll it up on my trailer...

cheers.

Congrats, Randy! You got a great bike at a great price. And welcome to the group. Hope you love your '01 Tbird as well as I love mine. Take a look at my album sometime to see the kinds of OEM accessories you can get for the bike, if you like to go that route.

Let us know how you like it!

Monte :-D
