    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 : Nine bolt top end with Bonneville 9 bolt head : Racing valves and springs : High compression 9.5:1 piston set up : One piece crank w/new bearings and re-grind : Polished con rods : High lift race cams : Balanced and lightened crank set up 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.

2024 Triumph Tiger 1200 Explorer Review – First Ride

Fri, 03 May 2024

More spinning mass for the Tiger’s Triple For the 2024 model year, the US will see only the Tiger 1200 Explorer models hitting dealership floors, while our friends up north will have the Pro models only. In 2025, the whole family will be getting back together in both countries. So, for now, we’ll focus on the Tiger 1200 Explorer models and the slight revisions that Triumph brought us to the beautiful Scottish countryside just outside of Glasgow, to test out.

2024 Triumph Speed 400 & Scrambler 400 X Review – First Ride

Mon, 26 Feb 2024

Two new lightweights that deliver vastly different experiences The folks in Hinckley have been busy in recent years bolstering Triumph’s reputation as a two-wheeled powerhouse of tech and performance. In the past six months or so, however, it’s also been releasing new models across its product line and entering highly competitive segments that are new to the British marque in the modern era. Now, with its new 398cc liquid-cooled, four-valve Single, the company is poised to attack the lightweight/entry-level class.

2024 Triumph Scrambler 1200 Review – First Ride

Mon, 22 Jan 2024

Minor revisions for the XE with a big step forward in approachability for the X Photos Courtesy of Triumph Motorcycles Triumph is, arguably, the manufacturer who brought scrambler styling back into the limelight nearly 20 years ago now. For many of those years, it was just that, a styling exercise to capitalize on the classic cool that scramblers imbue. It wasn’t until the end of 2018 that Triumph stepped up its scrambler game in a way that truly harkened back to what the desert sleds of yore were used for – scramblin’ off the beaten path.

2024 Triumph Tiger 900 Review – First Ride

Fri, 12 Jan 2024

Upgrades for All Since its launch in 2020, Triumph’s Tiger 900 platform has been impossible to keep out of the middleweight ADV conversation. With 45,000 sold to date, Triumph clearly didn’t need to reinvent the wheel with its 2024 models, but there are a few key revisions across both the Tiger 900 GT and Rally Pro models that really make them shine even brighter on and off road. After arriving in Malaga, Spain, Triumph sat us down for a brief presentation to tell us all about the new updates for 2024.

A significant engine update combined with further chassis refinement Credit: Photos by Gareth Harford, Andrew Northcott, and Chippy Wood For the previous week, I’d anxiously checked the weather reports for updates. Sandwiched in between swaths of little sun icons were two little black clouds spewing raindrops. Naturally, those were the scheduled dates for the US press to ride the 2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R and RS on the Andalusian backroads and the famed Circuito de Jerez Angel Nieto in southern Spain.
