Triumph Tiger description

1972 Triumph TR6R Tiger. Matching numbers on frame and engine. This was owned by a retired 80 year old gentleman who was retired and living on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. It was part of his collection of vintage motorcycles and cars. I was too late to buy the BSA's and Norton's he had for sale but I was able to find this Triumph tucked way back in his barn behind and old Ford truck. I had brought with me a new battery and fresh gas and after a few kicks it started right up. Since I brought it home I have cleaned and rebuilt the carburetor, cleaned the inside of the gas tank with Muric acid so it is now down to bare metal and looks like new again, replaced fuel lines, added fuel filters, changed oil, cleaned points, changed fork oil, tuned timing, and polished paint. I also installed a brand new exhaust from headers down (I still have original) and had newer tires mounted. I don't know if this bike has ever been restored or if this is all original condition. Whatever the case, it looks great! No choke on this bike (doesn't need one), and no directionals. Owner said it never had directionals and now doesn't require them due to its age. These TR6R Tigers are preferred by many over the same year Bonneville's due to the simplicity of a single carb and very similar performance numbers. The bike is ready for a new owner. Comes with clean and clear MA title signed over by the older gentleman with no date. Ready for new owner to sign and bring to their states registry. Good luck bidding.

AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike Riders Gearing Up For Road America

Thu, 29 May 2014

The AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike class makes its much-anticipated return to Road America this weekend. The four-mile Wisconsin circuit is a particularly exciting place to watch the middleweight bikes because its long straights and braking zones make passing and lead changes commonplace. More than just a test of man and machine, the races often develop into a strategic battle leading up to the all-important last lap and run up the hill to the checkered flag.

Spy Video of Updated Triumph Daytona 675 Testing

Fri, 05 Aug 2011

MCN has released a video of what appears to be an updated Triumph Daytona 675 undergoing road testing. Filmed by an MCN reader near Triumph’s Hinckley factory, the video quality isn’t very high, but we can see some details from the enhanced screenshot above (click to see a larger version). The most noticeable change is the placement of the exhaust.

Motorcycle Live and a few of my favourite things for 2013

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

There is lots of shiny new metal on show at Motorcyclelive this year but for me it’s the new Triumph Daytona 675 that steals the show.  We’ve been starved of brand new models in the Supersports segment for years but for me the latest Trumpet has made the wait worthwhile. And if its performance matches its looks then I reckon the 2013 bike of the year is a foregone conclusion.  The sleek curvy nose contrasts perfectly with the more pointy angular rear end and new side mounted silencer. It is lighter, more powerful and revs harder with much work on on mass centralisation to further improve handling.  Few of us have a whole lot of spare cash these days but £8899 for the standard model seems a fair price for such an awesome bike. That said I’d have to consider selling the granny and granddad to find the extra £1700 for the 675R.  Available early next year, and surely the perfect all round track day tool, this beauty comes with upgraded suspension, brakes, ABS, a quickshifter and some nice carbon detailing. The white 675R on display at the show looked even better in the flesh than previous images I’d seen so be careful or you might find yourself handing over a deposit. With no money left from the Triumph stand you’ll need your six special numbers to come up for my second favourite show item the AGV Pista GP Project 46. Although road legal this extremely light, full carbon helmet is designed especially for racing with a huge field of vision, extensive ventilation and superb ergonomics. It also comes with earplugs which suggests there may be some compromise in the noise department but it is still an incredible piece of engineering. At £799, this special Pista is also an incredible price but there will only be one hundred available and Raceways Yamaha reckon they are going fast.
