    Thanks for having me! I am waiting for my 1978 Tiger to be delivered any day now. My intension is to restore the bike to a sound, safe condition at minimum cost ( wish me luck ) !!! I am fully aware that this will be quite expensive, but I am retired and will enjoy the journey, so money well spent.
    I live in central Somerset.

    Regards to all the other Members.

    Welcome to the forum. The "Original" Triumphs are a bit before my time but nothng wrong with resurecting an old classic. Good luck!:)
