1970 Triumph TR6C

A 1970 Triumph TR6C that's been fully gone through — engine torn down, inspected, replaced where it needed it, reassembled to spec. The high pipes and folding pegs are stock TR6C. The Mikuni carbs and performance shocks are sensible upgrades that make it easier to live with on actual roads. It's the C model, so it'll handle a dirt road as well as it does a freeway. The classic dual-sport Triumph, sorted.

Background
The TR6C is the off-road-flavored version of the TR6 Trophy 650 — high pipes, folding pegs, slightly tougher gearing than the road TR6R. 1970 was the last year of the pre-OIF frame, which makes it the most coherent TR6C if you want one without the taller seat height that came with the oil-in-frame chassis the following year. Same 650 twin as the Bonneville but with a single Amal Monobloc rather than twins — slightly mellower power, better off-pavement manners.
