Review
Screwing it together As popular as the Triumph Twins were in the 60s and 70s, they are quite possibly more popular now. The new book from Wolfgang Publications offers complete start-to-finish assembly and restoration sequences on two Triumph Twins, a 1963 Bonneville and a 1969 Bonneville. Also included is the start-to-finish assembly of the 1969 engine and transmission. Rather than try to describe the miniscule differences that often separated one year from another, this book offers a colour gallery with left and right side views of all significant models from 1959 to 1983. With over 450 color photos, How To Restore Your Triumph offers 144 pages of hard-core how-to help for anyone who wants to repair or restore their own Triumph Twin. --Classic Bike Guide
Is it possible to write anything more about restoring a Triumph? Yes, it is and in Triumph Motorcycle Restoration authors Remus and Chitwood have put together a decent book to help anyone through their first restoration or even their second, third or fourth one. Based around two unit Triumphs – one from 1963 and the other from 1969 – the reader is shown how to pull the bike apart and offer suggestions on keeping to a logical sequence so parts don’t get lost or mislaid. There are hints and tips on how to make the restoration go smoothly, dealing with painted over holes and threads, tools you’re going to need and lots of clear, colour pictures showing the work actually being done. There are also sections on how to go about buying a used Triumph for restoration or regular use as well as sections on just how to keep one running and the discipline of a regular service routine. If you’re going to be a regular user of an old Triumph then here too this book will assist by showing what uprated systems are available. Things like electronic ignitions for instance that make life so much easier. Topping off the book is a photo reference section showing the timing and drive side of a selection of Triumph Bonnies and TR6s from 1959 to 1970 – look and drool! Definitely one for Triumph enthusiasts and probably one for Brit bike enthusiasts too. --Old Bike Mart
