1969 Triumph TR6R Tiger, 650cc. Registration number RFG 171G. Frame number CC13329 TR6R. Engine number CC13329 TR6R.
All TR6’s were known as a Triumph Tiger. There were 4 basic models: TR6R (Roadster & now the standard version), TR6C (with high pipes), TR6P (Police), & TR6RV (a Roadster with an optional 5-speed transmission).
In 1969 the piston top, which was wedge shaped, now has a dome configuration with squish area. The result is that the piston is more evenly loaded as the charge fires in the combustion chamber, giving better durability, and possibly less high frequency vibration. Compression, 9:1, is the same. New hardened camshafts and tappets were also used.
RFG, matching numbers, was imported from the USA for our vendor with the intention of a sympathetic restoration, the paint is all original and the engine ran well but the carburettor and fuel lines have all been overhauled, the seat has also been restored. it is being sold as he is reducing his collection.
Sold with the V5C, and various receipts
