The Triumph TR6R Tiger was a popular motorcycle that belonged to the Triumph TR6 series, which was known for its combination of classic British styling, versatile performance abilities, and reliability. Powered by a 650cc air-cooled parallel-twin engine, this 1967 TR6R Tiger comes finished in dual-tone green & white with chrome brightwork. Upgraded with an electronic ignition, this classic Triumph is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Louisiana.
This Tiger comes finished in a combination of green and white with prominent chrome brightwork along the handlebars, Triumph-specific badging, and exhaust pipes, as well as a matching rear-view mirror. The rider is provided with a low-slung black vinyl saddle as well as dual instrumentation with chrome bezels mounted ahead of the handlebars. It rides on multi-spoke wheels dressed in tires from 2022. Additional images are provided in the gallery.
The TR6R is powered by an air-cooled 649cc parallel-twin engine featuring twin Amal carburetors. The rear wheel is driven through a 4-sped manual transmission. Equipment includes front telescopic forks, rear twin shock absorbers, and drum brakes. The seller states an electronic ignition has been installed, and service items carried out within the last two years have totaled approximately $4,700, as shown in documentation within the gallery.
This sale will include a clean title and some documentation.
The seller would like you to know: “It's a two-owner example! 1 owner until 2022. The second owner purchased it from an estate in 2022. Please see the photo gallery with service documentation showing $4,700 in receipts. Thank you for viewing.”

As the Auction winds down please feel free to reach out WTH any questions you may have. I will do my best to respond promptly.
Beautiful example!! Should bring all the money.
TR-6 Triumphs with their single carb have to be among the sweetest in the world. I always loved an original paint example of the 67. I still regret selling mine years ago. GLWA.
@jgerpheide Hi there! Everything on this bike is in proper working order. Please see all records in photo gallery.This is a one whiner example until 2022. The second owner purchased the bike from an estate collection! Best regards !
Does this motorcycle run?
All the electrics function properly?
Any leaks?
Any rust or chipped paint?
Thank you
Yes, Hello. Has the bike been modified, rebuilt??
@rickmilligan928 Hi there! I as far as we know gas tank has not been painted during our ownership and let’s just assume at some point it was.
Was the gas tank repainted?? Other modifications?
@DrT Fantastic!!!!
@Carbine123 @Carbine123: No, there's folks out here with way more expertise than me. We owned a classic car dealership that also sold classic bikes so I was able to buy virtually anything short of a jet-powered Y2K to ride around on. Bought my first bike ('69 Norton 750 Commando) while a senior in high school and never stopped enjoying the hobby. BTW, that Y2K still fascinates me... lol.
@DrT Sounds like you can answer any question raised? Awesomeness!
Bid in the amount of $4,500
@Carbine123 @Carbine123: Have owned both; the Bonney may be marginally more valuable; but the Tiger is a nicer bike for putting around on; especially with a single Mikuni conversion. Nice bike; GLWTA.
Welcome to my auction of a very nice example. Again, This was single family ownership until 2022.
I will do my best to respond in a timely manner.
Have a great day!
@DrT Thank you! I just noticed that was incorrect!
Triumph Tiger: one carburetor. Triumph Bonneville: two carbs (& hotter cam)
