Motorcycles, generally speaking, live a hard life, but racebikes live a harder life than most. They spend their life at high revs, and sooner or later, they’re bound to end up pitching off-track into the weeds. So, it’s rare to see a race bike turn into a long-term survivor. But what if you build a racebike, and don’t race it? That seems to be the story with this 1972 Triumph roadracer replica. It has the right pieces to be an early-’70s roadracer, but it appears the machine’s actually had a pampered existence for decades.
捣蛋
在某些地方，这带上拖车广告称之为TrackMaster模型，但似乎以这种方式最准确地描述：“据说自行车在使用RockerMaster框架的工厂TR6R赛车手中建立了一段时间。“
这辆自行车装有特技零件，包括铝制燃料箱和完整的前展览。
In the early 1970s, the TR6R variants were some of the hottest Brit bikes on the market. They were made for speed, and typically used as the basis for desert sled racers. From the factory, they came with improved suspension, high-mount pipes, a trimmed-down engine and an oil-in-frame design. Of course, like every English-manufactured motorcycle of that era, the TR6R models were full of issues and mechanical niggles. A top-shelf mechanic could sort all that stuff out, though, and these Triumphs had a blend of handling and power that the Japanese still hadn’t quite figured out. For that reason, they were popular machines to build into race bikes in the early 1970s.
根据蝙蝠广告，这台机器是“周期修改的赛车副本。“errrr，这很奇怪。为什么有人在20世纪70年代建造一台赛车机，剥去像照明和角一样的街道合法的设备，然后没有比赛机器？广告没有说自行车不是比赛，但它也没有说自行车wasraced. All it says is, the current owner acquired the machine from a collection in 1991. The bike was restored in 2002.
广告不提及任何内部发动机修改，如铝桶或热凸轮。70年代初的一个适当的英国赛车将肯定有这些模式。
无论自行车如何到达目前的国家，它肯定是一系列美丽的老式赛车零件集合，从该轨迹师架开始。Trackmaster框架专门用于赛车，最初是由赛车Guru Ray Hensley设计的。胜利实际上用OEM部件号盖章这些框架，允许它们在AMA平面规则上进行结束 - 或者至少是每个人都相信的。它肯定适用于平面轨道场景中的所有其他背后的鞋子。
也许你认为这是违反体育道德的,也许你don’t care; either way, the Trackmaster frames had a reputation for good handling on flat tracks. Given the cross-discipline nature of the AMA championship in that era, it’s no surprise to see someone building a roadracer around the frame, too. There are issues to overcome if you want to use a lightweight Trackmaster frame on asphalt, but some AHRMA racers worked them out and ran these frames over the years.
售后市场震荡将有助于为人行道推动。
随着TrackMaster框架，这辆比赛骑自行车也有一个“更换750cc平行双胞胎。“这是一个比赛预付款的引擎吗？该广告说有一套双34mm mikuni化油器，托尼海沃德离合器，油冷却器和无电池点火，但没有提到任何顶端工作或其他内部诡计。没有空气箱，只是一套大型荚滤波器。2-2排气打开扩音器消声器，正如您所期望的轨道机器。有一个五速变速箱，右转，而且没有电动开始 - 它只是踢球。该广告称，发动机在2002年恢复时启动，并未运行以来。
自行车有Ceriani伸缩叉和双床作品冲击。Builder，无论谁，明智地将这款机器转换为盘式制动器;前面有一套双碟，用螺纹螺栓固定在挡泥板安装支架上。还有一个单件磨刀钳，带单盘式制动器。与现代制动器相比，这些组件似乎很可能是粗暴的，并且甚至是kawasaki z400等预算自行车。然而，与原始部分相比，他们会有一个大规模的改进。
The list of trick parts goes on. Those rearset controls are custom-built. The wheels have 18-inch rims laced to Barnes hubs, with Avon tires (110/80 AM22 front and 130/70 V818 SC V260 rear). As for the bodywork, the ad doesn’t say what the fairing is made of, but the tail section is fibreglass and the fuel tank is aluminum, supposedly stored with no fuel in it.
瘦的平均跑道机。英国机器最终被日本机器更快地强迫出来，但长期以来，没有人有权力/处理混合物认为像胜利等。al。
长期计划？
骑自行车像这胜利构成一个有趣的问题。你会买什么？
它没有恢复到它的工厂设置，甚至没有关闭。购买它并在赛道上爆炸它会是一种耻辱;你肯定可以这样做，但你也可以购买一台已经从轨道使用量受到虐待的机器，以便少钱。
Really, this bike appeals to a sub-market of people who want a mint-condition vintage race replica. Those people exist, but it’s a pretty small group, which might keep the price down. Whatever the case, if you want it, you’d better bid fast, as the auction is closing shortly.
