Triumph Thunderbird 750cc tracker Engine no. 6T 76948 Always a step ahead of their rivals. Triumph followed up the trend-setting Speed Twin 500 of pre-war days by being first in the field with a 650cc parallel twin. Announced in September 1949. the 650 Thunderbird was Triumph?ˆ™s response to demands for more power emanating from American racers and British sidecarists alike. A spectacular launch stunt saw three Thunderbirds lap the banked Montlh?©ry circuit in France at over 90mph for 500 miles. after which they each achieved a flying lap of 100mph-plus and were ridden back to the Meriden factory. a quite outstanding achievement. And here?ˆ™s a t/bird at the next level.
