COMPLETE BIKE THAT HAS BEEN IN STORAGE FOR YEARS. RIPE FOR A RESTORATION, THIS BIKE HAS NOT BEEN CHOPPED UP LIKE MOST OF THE EARLY TRIUMPHS IN THE CHOPPER CRAZE.  MATCHING NUMBERS ENGINE AND FRAME, DOES NOT LOOK LIKE IT HAS BEEN APART. NICE SHEET METAL, CLEAN TANK, THE FRONT END STILL HAS ITS ORIGINAL NACEL AND CHRONOMETRIC SPEEDO.  THE BIKE WAS CONVERTED TO A TWIN CARB HEAD BACK IN THE DAY, IT HAS A RARE 8 BOLT BONNEVILLE HEAD INSTALLED, WORTH A PRETTY PENNY ALONE!  LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND ASK INTELLIGENT QUESTIONS.

Mon, 07 Feb 2011

I've done some pretty strange things on motorcycles over the years. The less said the better, really. But getting nicked by a horse mounted copper was a first for me.

Riding round the north of Scotland

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

I’m ashamed to say that until last week, I had no idea what incredible roads and scenery the North West of Scotland had to offer. Starting at Helensburgh just west of Glasgow, ten of us (including ex racers Duffus, MacPherson, Morrison and Simpson,) rode 600 miles round the coast then back down to Inverness. On mostly empty but immaculate roads we lost count of the mountains, lochs and sandy beaches along the way.

Thu, 25 Aug 2011

Triumph issued a recall for the 2011 and 2012 Tiger 800 and 800XC adventure tourers due to a bug in the engine management software. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Triumph Tigers’ 800cc Triple engine may stall during deceleration. Riders may also notice lower RPMs indicated on the tachometer at idle.
