    Have this rare beauty in this week for a check over, don't tend to see that many UK 67 TR6's as the R model seems more popular.

    Reading this thread has just reminded me,way back in the olden days 1966/67 there was a guy who used to frequent the same coffee bar in the evenings as I did and numerous friends.

    When the guy was ask what bike he was riding he always claim his bike was a single carb Bonnie when everyone knew it was a TR6/Trophy:joy:
    Needless to say he used to get a fair amount of ribbing :joy:

    Lovely bike you’ve got in there darkman :cool:

    I painted it in 1986 for a customer and I couldn’t believe it still was in his chosen colour many decades down the line

    Darkman.
    Go on then what have you been looking at. I got a friend looking for a classic i will let him know. But i don't know if he is ever going to buy one as he finds them hard to start.

    Hi Joe, he would like £10,000 for it but i know he would take less at a push. Its a UK bike and very correct in detail but would only appeal to someone looking specifically for a UK model.
