TRIDENT

In 1968 Triumph was facing the beginning of the crisis trying to resist to the emerging power of the Japanese bikes.

After some year of hard studies on prototypes the Unified Company Triumph-BSA presented the new T150, Trident with 3 cylinders.

But maybe was too late, Honda CB four was already in many bike shops.

In 1990 the New Triumph started again where the story was finished, presenting a new Trident . This time with 900 cc and always with 3 cylinders.

In my personal opinion both models, the old and the “new” ones are really charming bikes, even if, while the old Trident is really a vintage- classic-ultra expensive motorbike, maybe the Trident 900 can easily found at reasonable price and can be easily modified to obtain a very nice Café Racer.

1969 Kawasaki F21M.

1969 Kawasaki F21M. Owned and restored with original or NOS parts by Tom Wheeler.

The Kawasaki F21M "Green Streak" is a 238cc, 2-stroke off-road motorcycle which was manufactured by Kawasaki from 1968 to 1970.

The F21M was Kawasaki's first lime green bike. It started the lime green tradition at Kawasaki that continues with Team Green. The F21M was advertised as the "Greenstreak 238" Scrambler. It was marketed mainly as a Tourist Trophy (TT), Scrambles and Flat Track motorcycle. Almost all the 238's sold by us were used as trail or hare & hound bikes.

Specifications: 238cc, 2-stroke 1-cylinder, Rotary Disc Valve, Claimed Output: 30hp, weighs a very light 215 lbs.

"We were green when green wasn't cool!"

Jim Lewis's G31m with down pipe. The best set-up we found. No other 100cc could match the bike or Jim. Tom won 1 race at Abbott when Jim was out of town, barely holding off Glen Hurt and Larry White on Hodakas Super Rat.

Jim Lewis again on our much modified F-7 125cc - you can just make out the black cast iron cylinder. There was much talk this bike was not 125cc, but it was.

Wagon Hill Scramble Track 1969 or 1970.
