    Many thanks Darkman - made my day .... and week! Sounds as good as it looks and goes better than that!

    So nice to see them on THAT PRIVATE ROAD near your house .... you know, the one that means you don't have to wear a crash helmet, etc. ;):):D

    Very pleased with it so far and it will only get better with more revs and further tuning, doing my heat cycles on the engine so only revving to 3000 rpm at this time.

    Hi Darkman. Thought I would resurrect this thread in light of your latest project that is now underway.
    Truly amazing talent.
    You should become the motorcycle equivalent of “Counting cars” but purely restoration based.
    Are you going the bike show in Dec assuming u are in the UK

    Thanks for the kind words but i'm more than happy doing a few little jobs for customers and the odd one for my self as this way i'm not reliant on others, i get to the odd auto jumble and a few local bike shows but that's my limit :)

    Just bumped into this lovely job, darkman ...and it certainly is " Creme de la Creme " :cool: Always reckoned the '66 TT was (and is) the most gorgeous Triumph ever built. Exceeding well done chap, and thanks ! :heart_eyes:
