Featured Bike - Triumph TRW

I spotted this bike this bike yesterday at an autojumble in Penrith. It's a Triumph TRW 500cc side valve twin. These were manufactured between 1948 & 64 as an army bike. It seems that most were exported for use by the militaries of Canada, Australia and other Commonwealth countries. In Britain they mostly served with the RAF. The bikes were not available to the public when new but were sold as surplus later.

  1. Recently Sideburn blog had a vid of one of these being prepared for flattracking, would probably be reliable....though not the fastest bike on the track.
