Triumph Bonneville description
1960 Vintage Triumph Bonneville Drag Bike A great vintage drag bike but could easily be built into a bike to run at El Mirage or the Bonneville Salt Flats Here is a very cool vintage Triumph Drag Bike built in the 1960's. It is unique in every way. The frame is built of square tubing with a built in oil tank and a hand fabricated aluminum fuel tank. I have NO history on this motorcycle at all. I bought it as a rolling chassis and at the time it had an old original 18" Avon drag slick on it. I replaced the tire with a new M&H Drag Slick. The transmission should be gone through and has a broken clutch adjustment cable lug (I have the broken piece). The engine was built by a builder in Bakersfield, CA and has original T120 cases and an original tachometer drive side cover . It is missing the drive piece for the tachometer that bolts to the inner gear.It was built as follows and has not been run : Original 1960 Bonneville Triumph cases It has a BTH magneto with a fixed timing gear, I know it is hot but don't know the history. Needs to be timed I was told the front end was rebuilt with new tubes and it looks right. Things I know need to be done: Needs carburetors and manifolds I made a plate that fits between the frame rails widen the frame so the rear wheel can be centered. Needs to be welded. The rear brake plate fit a slot in the frame but I would highly advise setting up the brake with a traditional real stay bar. Just need a tab on the frame and a bolt on the brake plate. Need to finish the seat, I made a pan from diamond plate. Needs correct bolt set for engine and to anchor motor and transmission to mounting plates. Needs a complete primary set up. Rear chain. I have a rear sprocket but it should have a new one. This is a very interesting project bike that needs to finished. It is a piece of history !!

Triumph Rocket 3: Hope you like black
Tue, 29 Sep 2009COLOURED PAINT must be thin on the ground at Triumph: the company's latest incarnation of their gargantuan Rocket 3 will only available in black when it's released early next year. And there's more torque, too: 165ft-lbs to be precise - up 15 per cent on last year. Triumph also say the new bike will offer "A completely different riding experience from its predecessor." Bold statement.
Riding round the north of Scotland
Mon, 20 Aug 2012I’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.
