Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Hello & Thank You For Viewing! For Auction With REASONABLE RESERVE 1971 Triumph TR6R Tiger 650CC MOTORCYCLE Offered for Auction, with REASONABLE RESERVE, is the exact shown, recently restored and refurbished 1971 Triumph TR6R Tiger. Taken in on a trade, this Tiger proves to be only slightly slower at the top end than the Bonneville and its single Amal carb needs less fettling but it still boasts gutsy grunt at low revs and better fuel economy. Triumph resurrected the Tiger title for this roadster-style single-carb 650 twin which, like its twin-carb Bonneville brother, slotted in to the firm's new oil-in-frame chassis. Carbs apart, this Tiger is almost identical to the Bonneville with performance to spare, tractability, economy and smooth running. Here is an honest bike, professionally sorted and safety inspected, that needs nothing but a tank of gas and new owner. Beautifully finished in a British Racing Green and Black color combination scheme, this bike is designed for hard work and relaxed riding. The best of both worlds… it's the bike which shows Triumph’s power can be as flexible as a foil. The secret is the big twin OHV engine delivering 48 bhp with its single carb, providing maximum flexibility with greater torque at lower rpm. This 1971 Triumph TR 6 R Tiger is a 421.1-pound, sport-touring motorcycle with a 649 cc engine producing 48 hp at 7,250 rpm and a top speed of 103.8 mph. It has two valves per cylinder and an OHV fuel control system. The compression ratio is 9.0:1 with a bore and stroke of 71 mm by 82 mm. The four-speed gearbox is of course chain driven. It’s just one more reason to keep buying half pints of milk for your daily run to the local Seven Eleven. Every old timer that rides says "I had one of those back in 19whenever. I should have never sold it!” But what is it about an old Brit bike that brings out the best in folks? The chrome? The sound? The fact that it actually runs and passes cars on the freewhizzle? Who knows? In conclusion, old bikes are still cool. Sure, they are a bit more demanding to ride but the grin will still be there after the new bike wears off. Ooops, the new wore off about 40 something years ago. The attached photos with this listing are photographs taken of the exact motorcycle being offered for sale.
