Re: Triumph 3TW

The pictures of the bikes with the riders wearing the Barbour one piece riding suits were taken at the motorcycle training establishment in the Lake District and clearly show the two differing timing covers used for the varying alternator positions...Ian

Re: Triumph 3TW

Is there just the one surviver,in the late 80s early 90s there were some parts for sale at the auto jumbles that used to be held at stoneleigh (twice yearly on Sundays),the parts may have come from the auction held at Meriden after the factory closed in January 1983,there were a lot of parts in the cellars which had been there since the end of the war (nos 3HW cylinder heads which I have two),the parts for sale at Stoneleigh as far as I can remember included engine parts,rider foot rests,petrol tank ,and other small parts,but no frame.

Re: Triumph 3TW

Steve as far as I'm aware, the 3TW at Beaulieu is the only survivor. I've also heard that there is another well known Triumph collector who has an engine and the engine that I posted pictures of was rescued from a grass mower in deepest Cornwall.

Thanks for that picture! Any more? Ron
