Triumph Tiger description

Completely rebuilt in 1995 with about 2000 miles since.  Powder coating on frame and many small pieces.   Sun rims with stainless spokes.  Wheels rebuilt by Britech with clear coated hubs.  Engine top end rebuilt with Britech coatings on piston, cylinder and clear coat on all aluminum parts.  Corbin leather faced saddle.  Works Performance shocks.  Custom front headlight with halogen lights and led rear light.  British made ceramic coated exhaust .  Boyer Branson electronic ignition and solid state voltage regulator.  Dyna coil.  Lockhart oil cooler.  Oil filter added which uses Trident filters.  Stainless front brake disk.  Levers and master cylinder from Kawasaki Z-1 with stainless brake line.  O-ring chain on new sprockets.  Renthal aluminum flat track bars.  Includes extra British made TT pipes and flat slide Mikuni carburetor with manifold and filter.  Fork tubes, bottom caps and bushings replaced.  Only thing it needs is new footpeg and kickstarter rubbers.  Some minor flaws in the clear coatings.  Always starts on the first or second kick.  All the flaws of a 70's Triumph have been addressed.  To me the 73 model is the best Triumph because it has a disk brake, 750cc, five speed transmission and shifts on the right like a proper British motorcycle.  I have owned this bike since 1974 and know its history.  Any questions or to arrange a visit 574-457-2216.

Watch: 2011 Speed Triple Dyno run

Tue, 05 Apr 2011

With the full factory fitted arrow system and map fitted it was time to give the Speed a run on a Dyno to see where the power is at. Over two runs the best results were as follows; Power at the crank : 130bhp & 75 ft.lbs torque Power at the gearbox : 124bhp & 72 ft.lbs torque Power at the wheel : 119bhp & 69 ft.lbs torque The bike has covered 4200 miles and is due its first proper service at 6000 so you would expect to see a reduction in power. Triumph claim on a brand new bike the Speed Triple at best puts out 135bhp and 82 ft.lbs torque at the crank with the cans fitted, effectively mine has lost 5bhp and 7ft.lbs of torque.
