Made to Ride: A Triumph Tiger T110 Story

Classic British motorcycles are known for their quirks and often unreliability, but that wasn’t enough to deter Greg from owning a 1959 Triumph Tiger T110.
Greg, who has a late ‘90s Ducati and a ‘20s Rudge-Whitworth in his collection, added the 1959 Tiger to his stable with open mind of experiencing something completely new.
It’s just another chapter in Greg’s motorcycle-fuelled life - he’s owned plenty of Japanese and Italian bikes over the years - and you could say it’s been a learning experience keeping the iconic Triumph running.

Have a photo of my father holding me as a baby in 1957 sitting on his Tiger, in later years when I was old enough to ride on the back of a motorcycle he had sold the Tiger but we rode everywhere on his Honda 305 SuperHawk. I love all the old bikes have 6 old Hondas and would love to get a Triumph.

You have got something very beautiful. Years ago I had 1954 Triumph T100. Even to this day I will say it was the loveliest bike to stay in my memory. Ride it. Love it and you will never regret having it. I certainly envy you.

In the mid 60s purchased a 1960 T110 all black with bathtub rear like a thunderbird in 2 years only replaced one magneto pick up and fitted a pair of BSA Goldstar silencers great sound still regret selling it in 1967 to pay for honeymoon and yes it would do 110mph

Another great video. That's one of my top three dream bikes. I bought an old 70's Honda CB750 two years ago so I could start riding and learn basic maintenance. I'm slowly working my way toward getting an old Triumph.

Once they are in your blood, they tend to stay there , the old stuff is a far-more engaging experience, nothing like the modern ..zip zip plastic-fantastic
