Triumphrat

zap660

Hey guys, I recently acquired this 1970 triumph tiger bobber. It has a weld on hardtail and stock front section. The bike is not road ready because whoever started building it never finished it and it just doesn't feel solid or correct to me. The front end is very loose and shaky and the forks seem worn out. What are my options when it comes to fixing this? What parts do I need to replace and where can I get them? Any information or comments would be helpful.

Thanks

I think you need to post this in the vintage/veteran section

Try googling for a local place that will rebuild the forks, or try some custom sites to see if you can get some springer forks to fit etc.

Just buy new bushings for the fork internals, and new bearings for the head stem. Rebuild according to the book.
