Déjà vue quelque part... Une idée (à 40%, sans vérifications préalables): NSU Rennmax... Mais pas sûr du tout! |

It's 350cc Germany Triumph (Triumph Werke Nürnberg /TWN). Triumph Boss (1953-57) It was sold as 'Triumph Boss' in West Germany, and 'TWN Boss' for export market. This bike seems 'Triumph Boss' from the tank badge. More than three letters in the badge .gif ":)") (It's new make. 'Triumph/TWN'?  ) |

New make? but if it is called "Triumph Boss" it will be grouped with other Triumphs. |

Avec mon histoire de NSU, j'avais pas tout faux: moteur deux-temps à double piston (cf fiche technique...) ![[:yaisse2]](https://imcdb.opencommunity.be/images/smileys/yaisse2.gif "[:yaisse2]") -- Last edit: 2006-07-12 21:33:22 |

Hello, Adler to Zundapp club UK, sorry but the Triumph is not a 'Boss' it is a 250SL 250cc 2 give aways are no banana exhaust pipes and the air filter is a cylinder type. but it uses all the same running gear as the boss ie mudgards,wheels,brakes(rear being hydraulic) cheers . |

As it's clearly export market (Vietnam) and to avoid confusion, should we settle on TWN? |

Yes, we have another one listed as TWN. |
