Triumph numbers & information

As one of my main interests is vintage Triumph motorcycles, I have had to research engine and frame numbers, together with information on availability of engine bearings.

There is a fair amount of information out there on engine & frame numbers. However, information on engine bearing parts for earlier Triumph models is scarce. So, I have compiled a few tables for us enthusiasts. It includes most Triumph models and has info on cast numbers for connecting rods, big & small ends, main bearings and cage info. The same info is available from a UK supplier but I found it a little difficult to find what I needed, so I made my own tables.

Caveat: The information provided is just info gathered. While I believe it to be accurate, please do not solely rely on it. It’s there as a guide and you should double-check the information with a supplier, or trusted advisor.
