Triumph T160 

Triumph T160

 This was the final opportunity for the big Triumph to show its class, and it did not disappoint. With the throttle wound back the Trident pulled hard, its engine feeling stronger and stronger as the revs rose. I changed into top gear at an indicated 100mph and the tachometer needle dropped back to 6000rpm, the bike still accelerating gently as I crouched over the broad gas tank.

When I backed-off the throttle for a series of sweeping curves the Triumph remained effortlessly stable, banking to left and right with confidence-inspiring solidity. On the following straight it held an indicated 90mph with ease, exhaust note lost to the wind, plenty of power in hand, the unfaired machine’s narrow, almost flat handlebars giving a good riding position for high-speed cruising.

The last production incarnation of Triumph 740cc triple was the T160, built between 75 and 76. With its electric start, left-side gear change, five speed gearbox and sleek styling, this is The One To Have for those modern riders who want three-cylinders, decent brakes and genuine dual-carriageway performance from their classic. As such, a decent T160 can command a sizeable price - look in the classified ads and you'll be hard pressed to find one for less than £4000.So Stuart was quite prepared to pay that much for his T160 when he purchased it in 1995. The bike was 20 years old and had just 3200 miles on its clock - it should have been the kind of bike you could just ride away on. Should have been... but as Stuart explains; 'I was robbed at the time! The condition was well below what you could call "reasonable". So since I've had the bike I have almost completely restored it.'
