    Hi, I joined this forum to try and get some info on a 1965 TR6SS I picked up recently, somewhere along the line someone decided to turn it into a chopper, so there are lots of missing parts. Searching the web there aren't any pics of 65, or a lot of info available. Do they have a siamese exhaust and was it high or low? I do have a mint 1965 TR6 Trophy for reference, so anyone has any info at all, it would be appreciated.
    Bikes I own and ride, 1959 BSA Spitfire, 1965 TR6 Trophy, 1972 Montessa Cota and a 1981 Yamaha XT500

    Welcome, nice selection of bikes and please upload some photos.

    I am a particular fan of the XT500 from a pure nostalgia point of view. :cool:
