Featured 1965 Tiger 100

Hi All

I have for sale a fully restored 1965 Tiger 100.

This is my father in laws bike and I am selling it for him as he is now in his mid seventies and wont be riding it again so its time for someone else to enjoy it. I am not a bike person so please forgive my ignorance about the details

It had a full restoration in 1993 including engine rebuild and was sold to my father in law in 1995. I dont have any paperwork or pictures of the rebuild and no history other than a few MOT's and old V5's.

When the guy did the rebuild he reset the mileage so it is showing just over 300 miles, which is all it has done since then.

It hasn't been used for quite some time but has been stored inside so has kept very well. We sent it away to be recommissioned a few weeks ago and now it is running well and looks great (as you can see in the pictures)

I have the invoice and breakdown of the work I have had done including having the carbs ultrasonically cleaned, new, battery, Distributor oil seal, and voluntary MOT. It is tax exempt and now MOT exempt, we just had the voluntary MOT done for peace of mind as much as anything.

I have seen these for a wide variety of prices and will be advertising it in the new year but if anyone on here is interested I would let it go for £5000 just to keep it simple and minimise the hassle for me and my father in law.

If anyone is interested please let me know through the forum and I will be happy to discuss it with you.

thanks for looking

 

Cheers Billy

 

Hi Danny

The numbers match the ones on the log book. I don’t know. If the engine is the original but I assume it is. I can send you the numbers if your interested

 

Hi Danny

No they are not the same as each other.

 

Sorry i have no idea. i dont even know what a Goldie silencer is. My knowledge of bikes stopped at my fizzie. I know that had a Micron

 

Happy new year to you all

Just an update. I will be advertising this bike more widely next week as it is now the new year. If anyone is interested I will post a link on here too.

Thanks

 

Thanks Jimhoy.

You could fly over and ride it back.

 

Thanks Joe

He does love it but knows he won’t ride it. He would love someone on the family to ride it but I wouldn’t be safe on a bike. Not enough wheels for me. If it doesn’t sell I might just keep it to look at, it’s a very pretty thing.
It goes on eBay tomorrow so let’s hope someone buys it who is going to enjoy it

 

Hi Danny

No I havnt sold it yet. To be honest I left it over the winter and plan to sell it now that spring is here. It is due to go on Ebay tonight and then the auction will finish on Sunday.
