A neighbour died a while ago, and his wife is looking at selling his triumph tiger 120 motor bike.
it is a one owner, absolutely original never pranged or serious dropped, still has original rego, would be about a 1958 model.
last 10 or 15 years has been ridden once or twice a month. very loud.
has some wear as you would expect in the seat, paint etc, but really good original condition, but not showroom.
about 160,000 miles.
I know nothing about bikes but she has asked me what she should ask as a fair price .
what do you guys reckon?

G'day John, Can you get a pic of it ? I couldn't answer your question but a mate would be pretty spot on at working out it's value. I've just sent him an email.
