Triumph Other description

1948 Triumph 5T  2 owner bike me and original owner that brought it into US in April 1948. Original 1948 title state of NJ was dated April 14, 1948 cost $1.50 to transfer back then.  This bike only has 1207 miles on odometer and it works fine had 1204 when I got it rode 3 miles at National Triumph Rally in June.I have copy of original title but was purchased from estate and lawyer made me transfer to my name. This bike is the most original early Triumph we have ever seen every nut and bolt is as was when came from factory. Had to put new front tire on old one was dry rotted beyond use , grips are new old ones rotted off, plug wires new rubber on old ones were rotted and shorting out.  Has original Lodge spark plugs in it everything else is 100 % as it came from the Triumph factory in 1948. Inside of fuel tank was clean sat in garage with no fuel. Carb was clean, clutch freed up on 3rd kick . Runs and shifts like new has 60lbs of oil pressure on gauge when running. All original paint and chrome. Even the original Lucas battery is still in bike the lead wires were leaded into terminals no  bolts or eyelets. This is a chance for a collector to have probably the most original early 5T you will ever find. The only thing it needs is a new wire harness all the rubber insulation is dry rotted but I do not want to change it runs fine with out harness working  it runs on magneto. Any questions call 856-447-5090 dont miss this once in life time chance

50th Anniversary Of The Great Escape To Be Celebrated With Electric Motorcycle

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

July 4th marks the 50th anniversary of the iconic Steve McQueen film, “The Great Escape,” and to commemorate the golden anniversary of McQueen’s escape attempt from German forces during WWII, McQueen Motorcycle will unveil a special electric motorcycle, the Xscape. The Xscape is scheduled to be McQueen Motorcycle’s first production motorcycle, with cues to incorporate today’s technology and integrate “the history and design of tradition.” Details are scarce at this point, but considering McQueen rode a Triumph TR6 Trophy in the scene, it would be reasonable to expect similar styling. In fact, looking closely at the photo above will reveal wire wheels, most likely a nod to the vintage Triumph.

Who To Watch In AMA Pro SuperSport

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

America’s road racing champions of tomorrow are racing in AMA Pro SuperSport today, and their season kicks off this weekend at Daytona International Raceway. With events on both Friday and Saturday, there are plenty of chances for glory for the 48 competitors entered. AMA Pro SuperSport is the most unpredictable class and the racing gives a chance for riders in the large fields to step up and prove they have what it takes. A great example is reigning AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike Champion and current SuperBike pilot Cameron Beaubier, who cut his teeth in his two-victory, two-pole season in 2010.

Freedom Friday Photo Contest

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Freedom Friday is a call-to-action on the AMA’s Facebook page each Friday to alert motorcyclists about issues posing threats to motorcycling freedoms. Riders can partake in a weekly contest related to these issues and win prizes. Each week’s Freedom Friday photo contest asks AMA members to send a photo of themselves, preferably with their bike, near a symbol of the current topic. The issue that kicks off today is access discrimination, which can be illustrated with a photo of a “No Motorcycles Allowed” sign, “Wilderness” sign or anything related to freedom to illustrate their concern as a motorcyclist.
