1998 Triumph Daytona 1200. 1 owner & only 7,502 miles For Sale

One owner from new, having originally bought her from Bridge Motorcycles - who remain the main Triumph dealer in Exeter to this day.

It has always been garaged from new and after the first 2 or 3 years' gentle use, it was coated in WD40 and dry stored for nearly all of the last 18-19 years! It's never even been dropped and certainly never involved in any accident. It's taken me 19 years to finally decide to part with her...

The Daytona 1200 originally went out of production in 1996, but was relaunched for a production run of only 250 bikes in 1998, the difference being the unique black and gold colour scheme and the spectacular 6 piston brakes from the Super III. This is number 152 of the 250 built. This is the ONLY EXAMPLE, of the 250, that was hand coach lined by Hinckley Triumph's own hand coach line painter when it was new. All painted by hand by the only member of staff at Hinckley to serve his apprenticeship at Meriden - and I was able to watch it being done!

Only seen rain once (when I once rode to Exeter to get her serviced) and is superb condition, but she's crying out to finally be used!

Recently recommissioned, with full service, all new fuel lines, fuel tap rebuild kit fitted, carbs unltrasonically cleaned, new coolant, fresh plugs, new fully synthetic oil (a 1200 Daytona requirement) and filter, brake service and a new battery. Recent MoT test (the first in 10 years - it's completed just 16 miles in the last 10 years). The original airbox and filter was changed 10 years ago and they are a till as new.

All non heavy load bearing bolts were swapped for stainless steel allen bolts when the bike was new. The cheap original clutch and brake hydraulic hoses were changed for custom made, Earls Performance Products, stainless braided hoses when new.

All original documentation, tool kit, spare keys, bills of sale are included and it even has the original seat hump and rigid foam element that sits between the seat and the tail piece (neither are in the photo, but I'm happy to supply photos).

For those who are not familiar, this is the 145bhp/ 147PS 1200cc 4 cylinder derivative of the original modular design. This was the bike that Triumph built as a defiant reaction to the importers’ voluntary 100 bhp limit (Triumph not being an importer!).

Includes high quality paddock stand that I've used from new.

I'm happy to answer any questions from any genuine potential buyers.
