I will say Mr Wesley Robinson Owner of Lexington Motor Sports was very Good on The Sale of The 1976 T140 Triumph Bonneville, It was and is a good looking Bike, But I took the add and Bid on the bike with confidence since it had many repair reciepts as was well cared for by a elderly man. , And was told it had been totally gone thru ,That Mr Robinson Bought it off a elderly man who know longer could Kick start the bike, But I noticed at the dealership it had a New Battery? Very Questionable. Seems The Altenator was Bad From The Get Go And With a Freshly Charged Battery It Started on the show room floor with Ease . In order for me to be 100% PLeased The Altenator will cost $300.00 To Replace & Repair Needed so I can Ride, But Unfortunatley I live on 780.00 a month fixed income and since the Bike Was Sold as is I Suppose I'll have to wait another year. After Spending my Lifes Savings on a bike I can't Ride?
I would be very pleased if the owner of a Triumph Dealership would Pay the $300.00 needed to Fix The Bad Altenator That would Be the Professional Buisness way of continuing our Future Buisness Possibly Purchasing a New Triumph with a Nice T140 Triumph Bonneville 750 As a Trade In.

Very firm and sporty, kind of a 'Bad Boy'. I have changed the 'Goofy' wide handlebars to some slim and trim ones from Yamaha. I painted and installed one of the purple fenders included as 'parts'. I like the bike better than I expected,overcoming my SHOCK at the cost of my final bid.
As usual, I used Esnipe to outbid the one (minimum) bid. At midnight Sat. nite, I watched the auction close. With 6 seconds to beat $3000, Esnipe went in and got the bike for me! I was SURE it would be for $3050 or $3100. When I realized that I had spent $3850, I was upset. If I had not authorized more than $3800, I would have been outbid, but I did not see that coming, at all! I had never seen an example where my bid was inflated by his secret Max bid. I only knew that it could decide the winner, as in 2 Esnipe bidders, the biggest bidder wins, but at the minimum increase over the existing bid ($3050).
So, I guess it's all's well that ends well, and I set my own Max without pressure and so did he! So, I beat him fair and square, the seller gained $800 and the product turned out to be good (thank God).
