My brother still has my 75' T160. It was near mint condition when he got it from me. I had painted it black as the Purple/Maroon color was faded. Had I known that was an original color I would have stayed with it. Anyway, he dumped about $5,000 into it. Total engine rebuild, re-laced back wheel to 16". Three into one header etc. Rode it twice and decided he wanted a Harley. The Triumph got shoved up against the damp cement wall in his garage with a tarp over it. I looked at it last year. Wish I hadn't. **** shame, that.

Tell him I'll give him $100 for it.

Go and skulldrag 'your' T160 it out of his basement , he obviously doesn't deserve to own it

He seems to be somewhat delusional as to it's actual value.

Fred 'skulldragging' rarely involves the exchange of cash .. lacing up a 16 inch wheel is reason enough to demand it's return.

Fred mate, you should listen to TC and Bruce.

I was thinking about getting an older project bike. Something to "tinker" with. This past year my R3 has gotten most of the tinker out of me.

As for my brothers T160, it's farther gone now than I would want to deal with. Just about everything part on it that's not painted is corroded. Good chance the engine is seized as he never put oil in the plug holes. A real shame.
