Description
This is a 1966 Triumph bobber/chopper built by Anthony Robinson. THIS IS NOT A 1964, but the program would not let me enter the correct year model of 1966. This bike has been featured in multiple magazines and won awards at I have no idea how many shows. This Triumph has been named Sangria. Sangria received invitations to and was shown at the Handbuilt Show in Austin TX, The OG Show, The Roadster Show, the Born Free Show, The One Moto Show, and more. It was selected for awards at many of these shows, and I have no idea where else it was shown or which awards it received. Sangria has been featured in several publications both in print and online. I included just enough photos for you to see for yourself. If you'd like to learn more of Sangria's history, do a Google Search for "Anthony Robinson, and Sangria" and see what you find. This bike is a well known piece of American motorcycle art and built by a builder I predict you will see more of. I also predict this bike will appreciate in value. If you don't believe me, look up Anthony's most recent build "Black Coffee" which was just unveiled at the Born Free show this month. I don't really want to get rid of Sangria as she's one of only two show builds that Anthony has ever sold. She runs, she rides, and she's a custom (one of one) with a pedigree. I filed for a lost title when I registered Sangria in my name, and I kept the original title signed over by Anthony to me. When you purchase Sangria, you get the "lost" original title in Anthony's name so you can always provide proof she's the real Sangria. You'll also get the current title registered in my name and signed over to you. Does Sangria have any faults? She's acquired a few chips and some very minor show rash. She hasn't been misused or abused, and there were probably three chips I touched up on her. One muffler has a peeled piece of chrome (probably a 1" square) but it's not obvious. She has one slight oil leak, at the Banjo bolt that feeds the rocker cover. I was going to fix that, but I didn't. It's an old Triumph, and I think the oil leak is simply a character trait. Other than that, she's basically as built by Anthony and as shown. Her seat simply sets on the frame and is held in place by your weight and two small dowels. I was initially concerned about this, but after riding her and this never being an issue, I decided to just leave it as Anthony built her. The fork is old, chromed, and hardly a smooth operating modern fork (I think that's the point). She's a hardtail, she's bouncy and jouncy, and she's a blast to ride. She needs a mirror. I thought about installing one, but again, I didn't. She has no speedometer, but you can pretty much tell how fast you are going on Sangria by the wind in your face and the feel of the road surface transmitted to your bum. Her lights come on when she's fired up, and they go off when you ground the magneto to kill the engine. The engine in Sangria from what I can tell is a 1969 T100C (the C stands for Competition). Other than that, I don't know what else to tell you about Sangria. I think Anthony's a great builder with an amazing artistic eye for these old school bobbers/choppers. His awards say that others think the so too. Anthony's newest build (Black Coffee) won an award at her first show. I can't guarantee you Sangria is an investment that will increase in value, but I honestly think she has the right pedigree and will not depreciate in value. The best part, she's an amazing piece of motorcycle art that you can ride too. All shipping arrangements and fees are at the buyers expense. I live in a remote area where bike shippers rarely travel. They do come through though, and I have shipped numerous bikes, but it takes time to arrange with shippers to pick up here. I will transport Sangria to a location locally that can be easily accessed with a commercial vehicle, and I will work with the shipper of your choice to make the appropriate arrangements for picking up Sangria. If you'd like more pictures or a video of Sangria starting, running, or being ridden message me and we'll work out making that happen.
