    Bought my Triumph Tiger 110 649 cc in 1959,stripped completely and rebuilt with race cams and high compression pistons ,put engine together very carefuly and she went like a rocket ,nothing could keep up or pass,wore out a few clutch corks in the process,used to regularly pee off a friend who had one of the latest Bonnys,enjoyed the bike a lot ,very reliable and nice to ride,as long as you kept the throttle open on bends all you got was a bit of a wiggle,happy days,I'm 65 now and own a Rover 100 ...

    The Triumph Tiger 110 649 cc single carb gave good fuel economy, easy to maintain by owner-rider. Known as the single carb 'bonnie' later models had a cradle frame which greatly improved the handling. In the 60's they were often refured to as the 'instant whip' after a food prodict of the same name, due to the fact the single downtube frame used to flex when cornering. T110's could just about out perform a BSA Road Rocket in a straight line but lost it round bends, there was a lot of banter be ...

    I find my 1959 Triumph T110 a beautiful bike to ride and brings back many memories when I brought my first Triumph in 1957.

    The Triumph Tiger 110 649 cc has good look's and is Reliable, great colours and comfortable to ride not like the newer bike that you have to lay on the fuel tank. I just like the look and the riding position of the older bikes.

    Had 2x 110s at different times. 1st, swapped a running James Captain 197cc in good condition for a crashed basket case 1957 T110 at Billy Briggs bike shop Salford. Put that together & ran it - but as a schoolboy not exactly affordable. Very quick machine. Swapped it for a Triumph Sports Cub that was affordable.

    2nd machine was a 1959 T110 - bought from a friend. Done up to include - Clip ons, rear swept pipes, Bonneville style headlight, 10.5:1 pistons, E3134 cams & racing followers, splayed ...

    Gorgeous, I remember the Triumph Tiger as a beautiful example, stylish and sexy even.
    I bought mine for 5 pounds and a transistor radio in 64'!

    Sunday 160406: now aged 69 years, my mind travels back to yesteryear with a fondness, recalling ownership of many cars and motorcycles. How very selective is memory! I bought a second-hand ''Triumph Tiger 110 ''of Lloyd's Garage, Stourport-on-Severn for £70:00 in 1962 complete with AVON half-fairing. I rode it home some 3 miles and was bitterly disappointed with the machine's performance - until I quickly replaced the spark-plugs with new Champion N3A's. During ensuing hard-riding I found ...

    The Triumph Tiger 110 was THE bike to own in 1954. Combined with outstanding fuel economy came outstanding performance. The only faster bikes were the Vincent 1,000s at considerably more expense and their manufacture had ceased.

    The claimed brake horse power from its twin-cylinder engine was 42 at 6,500 RPM which figure could well have been a flash reading on the factory's dynamometer as the 110's top speed and acceleration was not ALL that better than the Triumph Tiger 100 at a nominal 500 c ...
