I was looking for something entirely different and I came across my Triking file. I had been considering buying a Triking in 1990 but decided that it would be too difficult and too expensive to import one into Australia. I also have an even older brochure and a bundle of photocopied articles. If anyone wants more PM me and I will scan them.

Great info enjoyed looking at all that. I do recall thinking how expensive the Triking was at this time. My JZR cost £4k at the same time! But it was a kit build. Then I bought an M3W !

Now if this doesn't cause a fight...
On the last page of the brochure, it says:
intelligently designed suspension
Best get the popcorn ready I think.

Don't forget Tony Divey was a design engineer who had worked with Colin Chapman at Lotus. I suspect he knew a thing or two about suspension

At one time, Tony was a Morgan three wheeler owner and a member of the three wheeler club. Numerous folk who were members also had a Triking, including a past editor of the Bulletin.
