A few years ago, Greg Boyd had an example that same colour in his shop. It had only done about 1200 miles. I would have loved to had the spare dosh to have bought it

Am quite looking forward to getting it and tinkering. I'm a member of the local Classic bike club and finally can say I have a classic as such.
Very nice, you should have lots of fun with that.

I'm guessing there will be worries, its old & Brit.
But nothing I cant handle with time, patience & cussing.
What the best tyres to put on bikes like these?

I put my Ducati 900 Darmah on Bridgestone B45's and a few guys on older bikes have reccommended them.....but they are Japanese...I'm guessing there will be worries, its old & Brit.

Would pay to check the dates on the old ones as they could be really old.
I found the chain on my Jap import 900ss was ok.....but wore out in no time, reason was the oil had dried up in the links.

My neighbour has a mint 80 Darmah and despite it being mint and low kms, is always breaking down or having issues.

Nice colour scheme.

The Dunlop TT100 (K81) was developed specifically for the Trident,there just wasn't a tyre capable of handling a bike of that power and size.The TT100 is still available,and in race compounds too - still up to the task I reckon.

The bars on the UK model T150's (with breadbox tank) were nice and low. Thats what I had in the spares that came with mine . The guy had taken them off on put some high ones on it, didnt suit me . I put Z bars on it after them.
Pirelli Sport Demons are a good tyre(I run them on my LC race bike, stick really well and great in the wet), Brigstone BT45s are good too
Has it still got a 19" rear?
A mate runs TT900s on his RZ race bike , are they similer to TT100's Motu?

My Darmah has been in regular use since joining BFTP social group.Well, thats prob true, he's not out much.

Its been primped and preened and has never run so well.
Problems I had were due to clutch and carbs....all sorted after a few runs.
....so well in fact I think the 900ssie might have to go....
As for the bars, my R50/5 has them and they are quite relaxed to ride with...but if your wanna go hard lower bars.
...nice ride....bet it sounds good.

The was a UK an an 'export' T160 so I suspect there were taller and lower bars. Call British Spares and they can advise...
Forum whore
Same as the T150 with breadbox tank, low bars and the Export with teardrop tank had high bars. I put a teardrop tank on my T150 and had the low bars. I had the higher bars on my bonneville and it was ok but did prefer the low oneson my Trident

get the tri-spark ign,and got to agree with motu tt100's are a good tyre.
