Title: TR1 wanted
Post by Beachcomber on 08.02.11 at 17:18:24

Hi Guys,
glad I found this forum. ;D

I'm looking for a TR1 project - can be cosmetically challenged, slightly damaged or with bodywork missing. Prefer mechanics to be good - what have you got?

I'm based in the UK most of the time, but I also have a place near Dresden [ Reichenau ].

Anything considered, must be cheapish as I'm now a pensioner !

Did you see my offer. I have a TR1 for sale... cosmetically challenged, new starter, basically a sound bike, but the starter just won't spin freely. Must be some kind of a wiring issue.

Check this out:

Price is 700 (ovno)

Cheers,
Greg

Many thanx for the headsup Willi. ;)

Nanno, thanx for the offer - but I think the distance will make it not viable. :'( I am hoping to find bikes in the UK - I need THREE. I have 2 pals who will make the same project.

Hi I am selling a TR1 on ebay.co.uk at the moment. I'm only suggesting this because your criteria is low eg considering damaged. She is starting at £50 with no reserve. After seven years of non use she shocked me by managing to run, only on the front cylinder at tickover, but run non the less. I can't open the throttle otherwise we could have seen if she would fire on both cylinders. I expect she will be bought for spares because she is in poor condition.

Anyway links:

Please excuse the delay in replying all.

When I returned from my short break in Saxony - I found my PC had been hacked and all my e-mail addresses compromised. Also found my old passwords etc. were blocked ! [smiley=devil_3.gif]

Back OK now.

DumDum - I did see your bikes on e-bay and bid on them but eventually missed out...........next time eh??

What exactly do you mean when you say 'cheapish...?  My dodgy shoulder is forcing me to consider letting my TR1 go.  There. I've said it.  It's a 1984 model, pulls like a.. well, like a TR1, I suppose.  Seems to have a bit more go than either of the TR1s I've owned before.  A bit cosmetically challenged - furry alloy, a few rusty fasteners, paintwork (silver) seen better days.  Starts well, but currently in need of a new battery.  BSM exhaust, which looks similar to standard but breathes a bit more freely.  MOT and tax present.  Located in Stoke On Trent.
