Good example of a classic bike
7 of 7 found this helpful The 1973 Triumph Tiger is a single carb version of the parallel twin Bonneville, which sports two carbs. Bearing one carb, the Tiger is much easier to tune. 1973 saw the 650cc Triumph twin models stretched to 750 ccs. Early Bonnevilles and Tigers were actually lower compression engines, carrying only 724ccs. The Tiger/Bonnevilles were the first year of the front disc brake, which is adequate but not awe-inspiring. But the bikes are 36 years old and technology isn't what it is today. When kept adjusted the rear drum brake, a carry over from years past, more than complements the front disc. As with the brakes, if the engine is kept in tune and maintained with minimal care will provide long lasting service. The performance is on par with its day -- not blinding speed but enough to maintain its level of fun and more than enough to force the rider to keep an eye on the speedometer before law enforcement reminds you. The comfort level leaves something to be desired but nothing a gell seat pad and decent gloves won't remedy. However, each of these machines will have a "sweet spot" or a particular engine speed that, once found and maintained, will allow the rider to cruise backroads in relative comfort. Probably not for everyone. But if the rider can at least diagnose minor tuning issues that will crop up after extended periods, the bikes are definately head turners and seldom fail to draw a crowd at the local gas station, traffic light and any bike gathering.

Neat package
We wanted a table top grill to take with us in our travel trailer. We had the little cheapie, $5, dollar store grill that was a trooper. At home we have the full, battleship-sized smoker. But that'd be about the same as herding a fully-grown bull into the camper, if we wanted to take that thing. This is more stable than the little basketball-sized grill we have as a spare, less likely to allow hot dogs to skip off the table and into the woods. The Coleman doesn't have a big grill space but we weren't looking to feed a platoon of hungry Cossacks for a week of continuous eating. Just enough for two-four people eating a normal meal. Eight patties or 12 dogs, or 6-8 chicken pieces fit nicely. Breaks down to clean up quick and then drying before storage. The one inch legs are nice to keep it off the table. But I still use a sheet of alum foil beneath to protect surfaces from heat. I may go higher, though. Table still got rather toasty.

Inside look at Triumph
1 of 1 found this helpful Mr. Rosamond has done an excellent job recounting the last days of the Meridan Co-Op, the last days of the air cooled Bonneville. With the many outside -- and controlling -- factions pulling and pushing the company around it's a wonder it survived as long as it did. But, as Mr. Rosamond indicates, that was due to a loyalty not only from the Meridan worker but to the Triumph rider. In spite of the apparent inept short-sightedness by its parent company, the most popular British motorcycling name survived because it was simply "the world's greatest motorcycle." Rosamond tells of the monumental struggle to overcome that bungling and onslaught by a government subsidized competition from the Orient. Lessons experienced, lessons for tomorrow.
