Triumph Tiger 80 1939

Bill’s Bike. Entry number 40 in the 2020 Online Old Motorcycle Gathering Show.

Most of this bike was  acquired by my Dad in the 1960’s and had been used for scrambling so was in rather a sorry state. Over the years I managed to find all the parts to put it back into road trim and completed the restoration some 10 years ago. It is a lovely bike to ride with quite good performance and decent brakes for an old-un! Has done great service on VMCC runs over the years.

Jim’s Bike. Best British winner in our 2020 Online Old Motorcycle Gathering

From Jim

This bike was bought locally in 2010  and the engine was supposed to have been rebuilt by a specialist, but clearly had not. With a total rebuild  and much tinkering, the bike now runs well, very light and quite lively for a 250cc. The bike came from West Midlands dealer John Brittain, better known as a works rider for Royal Enfield.
