Tyran is a British motorcycle brand, produced in England from 1968 to 1975. This was a small specialist manufacturer focused on off-road and observed trials motorcycles. Founded during a strong period of British trials competition, Tyran built lightweight machines using proven components, most notably Villiers two-stroke engines. Tyran motorcycles were imported to the United States by Mitsubishi, and were characterized by simplicity, low weight, and competition-focused design. Despite limited production, the marque occupies a respected niche in British classic trials motorcycling history.
