The first Triumph Tiger Cub was born in 1954 as a little brother to the TR6. By 1963 the Cub was available in several variants including the TS20 Trials which was advertised as being as close to the Triumph ‘works’ bikes as possible. 340 of the Triumph TS20s were built in 1963 with all but 10 being shipped to the US.
The 1963 TS20 Cub used an air cooled single cylinder four stroke overhead valve motor that produced 14.5 HP pushed through a wide ratio 4 speed gearbox with heavy suspension and good brakes to make a very creditable trials bike.
This particular Triumph TS20 Cub (VIN # TS20 91162) is in Apache Junction, Arizona listed as a complete restoration by Dave Wedlake. The color is the same as the 1962 Bonneville, Hi-Fi Scarlet over Silver Sheen. The bike is currently priced at $1,500 with the reserve not met
