Triumph 350/500 Unit-Construction Twins Bible by Peter Henshaw Pdf
Want to be an expert on Triumph’s 350 and 500 unit-construction twins? Here is everything you need to know about these classic machines. Alongside the headline-grabbing bikes – the Bonneville and Trident – Triumph built a whole series of smaller 350/500cc machines, with all the style of their bigger brothers, but lighter in weight, easier to ride and now cheaper to buy. The Triumph 350/500s played a key role in the company's success through the 1960s, in North America as well as the UK. The range included everything from the original 350cc 3TA, a mild mannered tourer, to the final Daytona Tiger 500 (a modified version of which won the Daytona 500 race in 1967), and the TR5T trail bike. This comprehensive book covers the complete history of these bikes, with details of model variants, advice on buying and living with a Triumph 350/500, technical specifications, and a list of useful contacts.
Having this book in your pocket is just like having a real marque expert by your side. Benefit from the author’s years of Triumph ownership, learn how to spot a bad bike quickly, and how to assess a promising bike like a professional. Get the right bike at the right price!
'The living legend that never died' In modern times, with the well-established recognition that the Japanese motorcycle now has alongside the long known German and Italian models, enthusiast can still point proudly to the one major British firm left from the past. It's Triumph, now moved to a new home in Hinckley and building machines technically divorced from their past, but still using the traditional tank badge recognised all over the world. Long before events brought about this change, Triumph led the way to the vertical-twin motorcycle and after World War II majored on this engine type, adding a triple late in the day. These machines continue to be much in demand, but now this is in the classic machine market where they hold the same high position as they did when the models were new. This book is essential reading for every Triumph owner, rider, restorer or just admirer. It deals with the much loved Triumph twins, plus the fabulous Trident, from its inception to the final days at Meriden and includes many photographs plus invaluable tables of machine data and specifications.
The Triumph 350cc and 500cc unit-construction twins were called the 'C' Series, and were made between 1957 and 1974. The range started with the 350cc 'Twenty-one' - a sedate touring bike with full enclosure in the form of the famous Triumph 'Bathtub' - went through such famous names as the Speed Twin, Tiger 100 and Trophy, and ended with the rip-roaring Daytona and the off-road Adventurer. This book deals with the whole range, giving the history of all the models, and also describes the restoration of a 1969 Trophy T100C.

Sometimes living under the shadow of the flashier, high-profile Triumph Twins, the equivalent BSAs were just as numerous and were exported all over the world. BSA was often seen as a less glamourous marque than Triumph or Norton, associated more with commuting and sidecars than coffee bar cowboys, but that doesn't detract from the collectibility of its models today, as the bikes have become highly usable, enjoyable classics. Unlike the many marque histories available, this book is a practical guide to buying one of these bikes. It covers the complete range, from the very first 1946 500cc A7 to the final 1973 650cc A65s. Chapters include what to look for (10min and 30min evaluations); spares prices; guides to auctions and paperwork; lists of useful contacts in the BSA community; and just as important, consideration of whether it’s the right bike for you. One hundred colour photos, useful appendices and expert advice mean this book could save you thousands.

TRIUMPH 350cc & 500cc UNIT CONSTRUCTION TWINS 1963-1974 WORKSHOP MANUAL by Floyd Clymer,Velocepress Pdf
260 pages and more than 290 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This publication is a reproduction of the Triumph factory workshop manual part number 99-0843/0948/0950. The original workshop manual part number 99-0843 was subsequently updated and merged with workshop manual 99-0948. This merged 'double' manual also included a supplement, part number 99-0950 which extended the coverage up to the 1974 models. The supplement was appended to the 'double' manual such that 'Section A - Lubrication System' is followed by a 'Section AA - Lubrication System' supplement and 'Section B - Engine' is followed by a 'Section BB - Engine' supplement, etc., etc. This combination of 99-0843/0948/0950 was published as a single workshop manual applicable to the entire range of 350cc and 500cc unit construction twins from 1963 through 1974. This reprint is a faithful reproduction of that 'combination' manual. There were a number of 'running changes' made throughout the 11-year production run of these models and the way the factory identifies the point where those changes took place is by referencing engine numbers within each individual section of this manual. To assist in identifying the appropriate information applicable to those changes, the supplements were appended to the end of each appropriate section. Consequently, it is important to note, with regard to any maintenance and repair instructions and also the specifications in the 'General Data' (GD) section, that wherever engine numbers are stated, the data will be specific to that particular series. Therefore, the reader is encouraged to read the entire section plus the supplemental section prior to commencing any work, paying close attention to any engine number notations. Owners of the 350cc and 500cc machines are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the appropriate selection of the multitude of originals and reprints of the various 350cc and 500cc manuals that have recently flooded the online marketplace. Based on our research, at least six manuals were issued for different series of engine numbers throughout the 11-year production run. However, the 99-0843/0948/0950 'combination' manual is the most comprehensive manual for the entire line of 350cc and 500cc unit construction twins produced from 1963 to 1974. It covers all engine numbers from H29733 through H67331 plus the later 1969 through 1974 alpha numeric series engine numbers, unfortunately, it is somewhat scarce and difficult to find. In addition, many of the changes made towards the end of the production run necessitate the use of the supplement and we are pleased to offer this reprint of the 'combination' manual as a service to all Triumph 350cc and 500cc unit construction owners. The 1963 to 1974 models covered are: Tiger 100: T100SS Tiger (1963-1965), T100 Tiger (1966), T100S Tiger (1967-1970), T100T & T100R Daytona (1966-1974), T100C Trophy (1966-1972) Speed Twin: 5TA (1963-1966) Tiger 90: T90 (1963-1969) Twenty One: 3TA (1963-1966)
