Happiness is a properly sorted Trials Tiger Cub

As part of my mini collection of Triumph Tiger Cubs, I have this lovely Trials version. It has a lot of toys including the Sammy Miller swing arm and rear loop. It has a few knocks as it is used, not kept for show.

The gearing is set up for trials, so it’s not much use for road or even trail. However, it does the job it was built to do. The carb has been swapped out for a Mikuni as the original carbs just aren’t as reliable. Someone asked me what the forks are from. I have no idea. They work very well though.

Pics are of daughter number two ready for a little lesson on bike handling and a friend taking it for a quick spin.
