TWN BDG 125
Yes. German made. The Triumph motorcycles started in England in 1885 to the present day by a German gentleman. He also made them in Germany from 1886 to 1957. The German models went by several different names. In 1951 the name went back to Triumph or TWN
“Triumph Werke Nuremburg”
This is a model BDG. The BDG’s came as 250 cc and 125cc. This is a 125
One way to tell a German Triumph from an English one: The German has the line on top of the word Triumph and the English has the line under the name.
Google TWN BDG 125 for a complete history.
These bikes are very popular in Germany and parts are readily available through several different sites. There are also Triumph TWN clubs on line.
This bike started as a complete bike minus the carburetor which has been added. It went through a complete nut and bolt restoration. including a complete motor and transmission rebuild. frame powder coating. and tank and fenders paint. There is lots of re-chroming.
It is 100% all original except for the custom made leather seat. There is a new OEM seat included.
There is a new wiring harness. all new cables. and a new battery.
It is mostly together with only a few new parts needed.
One axle. one had threads stripped.
Air Filter (very common type)
Foot peg grips.
Tank Knee Pads
Handle bar grips with acceleration mechanism.
Speedo cable.
Wheel bearings
Tires
The bike is in the Los Angeles area.
I would like to get $6. 00 in its present condition. I’m told that it should bring
about $10. 00 when finished.
The buyer of this 1951 Triumph will probably have one of the rarest and most unique Triumphs in the Country.
