1959 Triumph Tiger Cub T20 For Sale


Triumph tiger cub T20
Frame is early 60s engine is a bit later, perhaps mid 60s but I cannot confirm the exact year of manufacture.

The Cub was fully restored a few years ago but only done a few hundred miles since then and still in excellent condition. Starts first kick with ease. As can been seen the wheels and tyres are new as is the paintwork. Most of the work was carried out by a previous owners so I cant take credit for it, I only finished this one off but I do regularly restore classic motorcycles. I have fully serviced this bike so that it is ready to ride.

It is fitted with a new Mukuni carburettor for reliability and ease of starting but the original carb and mushroom air filter is available if wanted. There is a battery charging point fitted on the right hand side below the seat. Please note it is 6V electrics.

It is of course tax and mot exempt.

It does have a bit of an oil leak (probably primary drive seal) but that is not unusual for these old triumphs. There is a small paint chip on the front mudguard as can be seen in one of the photos and some marks on the headlight chrome and a few minor marks here and there commensurate with use but otherwise all looks in excellent condition.

Please note this is a classic motorcycle and although it has been reliable for a while it will need continuous and ongoing maintenance and care to keep it going.

Viewing is welcome and I can demo it but no test rides I'm afraid.

There is a video of it running at - details above

Here we have the reluctant sale of my stunning matching numbers Triumph T140E AV. AV stands for Anti Vibration. I believe this bike was one of a handful built for evaluation by the police. I cannot prove this and have never bothered to do any major research but there are articles on the internet to support this theory. The ...

I've owned the bike for many years now and is kept in a heated garage. Looks and rides beautifully. I'm only selling as I need the space for another project. I also ...
