The Triumph Tiger Cub was a 200cc single-cylinder British motorcycle made by Triumph Motorcycles at their Meriden factory. Based on the Triumph T15 Terrier 150cc, itself a surprise announcement just before the 1952 show, the 200cc T20 Tiger Cub was designed by Edward Turner, and launched at the Earls Court show in November 1953. It competed well against the other small-capacity motorcycles of the time, such as those using two-stroke engines from Villiers. The Sports Cub designated T20SH featured slimline mudguards, no rear panelling or headlamp nacelle and with a higher compression ratio and other engine modifications were timed at 74 mph mean maximum by Motor Cycle magazine.
The current vendor has enjoyed this Sports Cub and recent work has been carried out. ‘KGH 190D’ has benefited from a new fork stanchion with the appropriate seals, a new conrod and bearings and a new oil pump and stator. This T20SH was ‘running very well’ at the time of consignment and is offered with a Triumph Dating Certificate and the V5C.
