Stafford Show
The Stafford show was a huge success for the club with much interest in the exhibits that included a display of very fine T160s. 2015 is the 40th anniversary of the T160 and the show is the first major event where the TR3OC celebrates this iconic motorcycle. The celebrations continue later in the year at Beezumph 24, where the aim is to show 160 Triumph Trident T160s. For more information visit www.beezumph.com
The show had much to interest triple enthusiasts. Outside in the paddock there was a long line of racing triples on display, including Steve Brown’s rare T180.

2015 Tuareg Rallye Trident Wasp
Well Mr John Young and some other foolhardy souls have decided to make some more trident history by entering a T150 engined Wasp MX outfit in the 2015 Tuareg Rallye.
Completing the rally is difficult enough on todays MX/Enduro bikes that weigh about 130kg and have around 30omm of suspension travel. But that would be far to simple for the likes of John et al.
Here is a pic of the outfit in preparation
Nice bit of work on a custom made mainfold to link the SU carb to the 3 pots ( save some time on having to balance 3 carbs LOL)
Now for the exhaust
