Title: RE: WANTED 1926 - 1927 TRIUMPH TT 500CC ENGINE SPARES
Post by: joesengines on May 07, 2012, 02:15:43 AM

Hi all, I need a couple of parts to complete my 1927 Triumph TT 500cc engine
I require a set of pushrods and pushrod tubes as well as the small aluminium covers that go on the rocker box (see picture)

I also would like to get a magneto chain cover
and possibly the correct carburettor?

If you have any of the above parts, please get in touch

They don't cater for anything post-flat-tank (1928) and they're currently not doing business anyway.

Hi Guys,

I am new to this forum but am following it for some time now.

I have purchased a 1927 Triumph TT engine which is for approx. 90% complete.
Most of the parts which are missing can be made I think.
On the shock absorber I am missing the distance piece (TE17 ??) which is fitted directly against the bearing.
This piece is fitted with a small key on the drive shaft.
Can anyone help me with a small drawing and dimensions or a pattern of this distance piece ?

Regards,
Alex
