    Darkman, My comment may not be original but This is the bike Triumph should have continued to build through the 60s and 70s. They would have never folded the company. Well done sir.

    Lady Docker spent most of her days on her knees servicing Bernard so she could have all her trinkets lol, just one example where all the money went instead of retooling. Its funny how it's still the elite twats destroying and spoiling everything today.

    Yeah, I'd read about that bullshit years back, been some interesting articles and books since those days. o_O Still, back to '66 .. got bored with the silver/grey of the '07 Bonnie a few years back, so took it 'round to the signwriter and got him to orange stripe the tank and mudguards ... :rolleyes::rolleyes: .. haha .. closest I'll get to the beloved one these days :sob: Then again, reckon the '68 Trophy ex Bears racer from Ohio with the large dia TT pipes could make a reasonable facsimile with a bit of sneaky work. ;) I go now .. head hurts !
