Rare 1951 German Made Triumph TWN BDG 125 *** DELIVERY $500 see below for conditions 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. The only draw-back is I dropped the headlight housing and chipped the paint. Some touch-up paint would fix it fairly well. 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. Things left to do is install new wiring harness. hook up cables (all three. Front brake. clutch and accelerator) all are included. It is mostly together with only a few new parts needed: Rear axle. (I used a vintage BSA axle. ) It doesn�t work as it should. Rubber grips on the rear passenger pegs. Tank Knee Pad bracket (new knee pads included) Tires. I put new tires but they are not vintage correct. They are the correct size 2. 75x19 but they are too wide and hit the fender in places. They cost about $40 each and the correct tires are about $140 each. Wheel bearings. I put in new ones but they are not the right king. I ordered a new set from Germany but they sent me wheel bearings for a 250. not the 125cc. A few small odds and ends. They may be in the pile of parts pictured. The bike is in the Los Angeles area. CALL Stuart 909 239-6199 I listed it a couple of months ago and said I�d like to get about $6. 00 in its present condition. (see my old ad 281545591678 and also see more pictures) The bidding only went to $5. 00. I have since done a lot of work and bought over $500 in parts. I�m told that it should bring about $10. 00 when finished. This is a low reserve auction but I would sell for a bid of $6. 00 now. The buyer of this 1951 Triumph will probably have one of the rarest and most unique Triumphs in the Country. It comes with an owners manual and a parts booklet.
