Hi,
I dont really know much about early triumph history :embarrassed:, so the question is are there any good books. I had seen this one on Amazon for £7.50
TRIUMPH MOTORCYCLES TWINS AND TRIPLES by TIM REMUS
anyone know if its informative or can you suggest an alternative. Its early (60's) Bonnevilles, Daytonas & TR6's I'm most interested in.

Many thanks Keith

Triumph Twins Restoration by Roy Bacon is good.
Easy to find on Amazon or E Bay.

avoid anything written by a John or Johnny Tipler. In my opinion he is the North end of a South bound horse.

If you want to go faster, look for a copy of "Triumph Tuning" by Stan Shenton on Amazon. He was the factory tuner and worked for Boyer Triumph , a retailer and tuner for many years. its only fifty pages but full of good advice up to factory spec.
