Triumph Other description

 Extremely rare piece of British four stroke motocross history.  This is an Eric Cheney framed 500cc Triumph twin.  Frame number TR1 313 Engine number T100SC H43055.  The bike has been in a private collection for decades. It's in very nice original condition. TT down pipes, custom fabricated fiberglass skid plate. Very trick clip-on bars.  Great compression but presently has weak spark.  Should wake up fairly easily.  If you are looking for a Cheney, you know how few are left and not many for sale.  I can arrange reasonable/reliable shipping throughout the US.  Please feel free to ask questions.

Unchained: 2013 Triumph Rocket III Free of Power Restrictions

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Triumph has updated its Rocket III cruiser for 2013, adding more blacked-out components and a new seat, but perhaps the most significant change is what Triumph took away: the electronic torque limiter. Previous versions of the Triumph Rocket III and the Rocket III Touring variant had its power and torque neutered in the first three gears. The reins are off for 2013 however, with the Rocket III’s 2294cc engine delivering full power in all gears.

Recall for 2011-2012 Triumph Sprint GT, Tiger 800, Tiger 800XC Optional Top Box

Thu, 11 Aug 2011

Triumph issued a recall for optional accessory top boxes for the 2011-2012 Sprint GT sport tourer and the Tiger 800 and 800XC dual sports. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the top box locking handle is missing a clip lip to ensure a  proper lock on the rear rack. Without this clip, the locking mechanism may not be secure, potentially leading to the top box falling off of the motorcycle.
