He doesn't say if it runs...if it does, this is a steal!
I've been looking for a '69-'70 Bonneville (who isn't), but can't touch one for less than 9K. Not interested in th OIF units.

 

[gggGary]

Sent a message, we'll see if it's an ad or a scam....

 

[MrBultaco]

Good luck...I can't believe it's still listed. In the Denver area, it would be gone in 4 hours or less. (it doesn't fit the profile of the scammer with the '78 650)

Great points about what to avoid!

I use this site to search ALL of craigslist so that I can see if a bike is listed in multiple markets. This is a great way to weed out scammers as well as to find bikes you might actually want:

Using that website, I see "Vanessa" has at least a half a dozen ads running. Most about a month old.

Got a reply and local phone number on the Triumph

It probably has been five years since it ran.

Guy doesn't know what he has..... That's an 80 or newer. Iggy is missing 'cause it has the TCI system...

 

[halfmile]

This is just a hunch but I think Gary has the parts to make that one run.

Speaking of budget priced Triumphs, just noticed this bumped to the top...

Like most people who come on here..........Look at the production date and not the model
