TRIUMPH 1909 MODEL MOTOR CYCLES NOW ARRIVED.
The main improvement in the 1909 Triumph is in the'engine, in which a departure from the usual practice has. been adopi&d in respect to the piston. Theinew Triumph piston has i two Tings, r Olie at the top and one at thefcdttorft, instead of the general piractiiec'of two or three at the top. IMS absolutely ensures even wear of the cylinder walls, the whole length | ot ithe piston-travel, instead of all the | 'wear being concentrated at the top,, with consequent difficulty of obtain- i ing proper lubrication, resulting in \ loss of power, knocking, etc. This' system has undergone thorough prac-' tical testing on the roads, and we 'find the compression is retained much longer, still more power is obtained, and efficient lubrication is ensured. A sample 1909 Triumph can be seen at Mr R. Pook's cycle depot, Masterton, and a trial spin arranged. Mr E. Hyslop, distributing agent fDr Triumph motor cycles for Walnrapa, | Hawke's Bay and Pjv^ty''Bevy Box lfi-5, Hastings.*
