762 Miles – 2010 Triumph Street Triple R
Post-Sale Update: This Street Triple R sold for a lowered BIN of $5,600. I’m one of the (apparently few) people that prefers the styling of the previous gen Street Triple, with the round headlights.

1969 Norton N15
Post Sale Update: After 15 bids on eBay, this N15 sold for $6,500. After Norton moved production to Plumstead in the early 60s, they had a few leftover engines from the less-than-popular Atlas line.
