Newby here - need advice on Bike
« on: September 09, 2007, 08:59:18 PM »
Hello guys, Iīm new here on this forum and hereīs my first 4 questions:
Iīve found a 1946 Triumph Speed Twin 500cc.

1. Is it hard to find parts on the net for this bike?

2. Is it a common bike among vintage bike-owners?

3. Can I find original papers for this specific bike? It was brought to Sweden from Nepal many years ago, and there are no papers available. Who can I talk to, to see if itīs possible?

4. Where to find restoration-material, such as books, tips and hints about this specific model?

Any help is appriciated...
 :)

I suggest you join the Triumph Owners Motorcycle Club as they will be able to assist with any technical help and advise where best to get any spare parts that you may need.

Manuals and parts books etc. can also be bought from:
