    Hi I've just joined the site as a classic Triumph owner and rider.
    I have a 79 T140E which I have just completely rebuilt. It was in a very sad state and obviously had a lot of abuse. I live in the midlands of the UK and own a couple of other bikes. I have just retired as an aircraft maintenance engineer and I'm enjoying the free time to ride my bikes and enjoy myself.
    Perhaps I'll meet some of you out on the road.
    Cheers
    Rich

    My T140E. It's fairly standard except the front brake and a few other small things.
