In all seriousness Jay, everything contributed here is good advice. Look at the tires, check for leaks, evaluate the general condition of the bike. If it looks like someone has been paying attention to the details, like a clean chain, rims, lower motor, etc., chances are pretty good they also have taken care of the innards. Really doesn't take a great deal of work to do that since these bikes are pretty solid to begin with. If you're not overly familiar with Triumphs don't be alarmed with the engine 'chatter' whe you fire it up...a certain amount is normal. If you get to ride it check out the shifting, steering, any rattles or loose feeling stuff. And like everyone has said, $2800 for a bike with 10K on it, even if it is 10 years old, is a steal.
