Triumph 750 twin transmission modification - Gladstone No1

Beautyfull bike but not a fan of the hardtail. I used to have a stock T140 but sold it to buy a big Harley. Later i bought back a T120 also single carb. It had been stored for years. Think i have to rebuild it to run on unleaded fuel. But your video made me want to ride it today

Your voice allows for my brain to relax and imagine the build/repair. GOD bless you brother. When I get all four of my chains aligned and get things to stop breaking. I'll attempt to post a video of building my trike. I've been working on forever. It's a Schwinn Stingray OCC fat tire/ Headstrom double drive axle 24" trike. With 20"×4 1/2" fat tires and a 2stroke gas engine.

[@seniorrider9337]

What a wonderful idea that is totally our of the ability of most humans. Allen, you are a bike tinker's dream. I watched this and realized how much I miss my old Triumphs. The last 650 I had, a 69 Bonnie I had modified with a Bob Chantland aluminum barrelled 750 kit. Wow, with "R" cams. it would run 125, and pull the front end up in second gear. What a bike!

[@howder1951]

Great job Allen, I have a couple of riding buds that changed their Harley primary sprockets up one or two teeth and they claimed amazing fuel economy with a little stretch in first gear. I think that would work on my ride, as I increased the power now I feel a need for slightly taller gears. Enjoyed very much , cheers and thanks for the tutorial on the cupcakes!

[@Buzbikebklyn1]

Your work inspired me to join 2 Harley Davidson 121" engines together, for a 241" "V" 4 engine. It's still needs some work but it pulls like wild horses . Keep on going! A fan in America. T.

I miss it so very much and still have vivid dreams of riding the bike all around when I was a young man. Now I’m an old man but if given the opportunity to find my old bike I would buy it. I long for the fun and lack of stress I felt with my Triumph. Great job as usual ✌🏻🇺🇸

Thanks David im glad you enjoyed it

[@Kingwoodish]

Back in the day I upped the primary sprocket on my 2 stroke Suzuki Titan 500cc road bike. I put a different set of exhaust expansion chambers on the bike as well. It all helped with better highway speeds and fuel economy. I wish I still had that 1976 model. I do have and ride my 1975 Kawasaki Z1 900. It's a fabulous bike with 140,000 miles. It's seen a fair amount of maintenance but runs strong.

That was educational in more ways than one. For a start, I hadn’t heard of Gladstone motorcycles until I watched the video. On top of that, I learned that it’s possible to install a much larger primary sprocket on a 750 Triumph (if one is skilled enough, of course). Finally, I almost feel brave enough to attempt cupcakes! Another thoroughly enjoyable episode.

[@mpccenturion]

Lovely. Some 15 yrs ago I bought a Twin 750 Kawa - 82. The gearing was close. I spent a month running gear ratios and came to 29 rear and the standard front. I dropped the rpm's by 3000 at highway speeds. Nice take on the TR7.
