    Triumph 3HW

    In memory of Simon T here's my effort and as I haven't built a motorcycle in years I will be doing this one I have already started it but well below the 50% (I hope).Click image for larger version

    Hi Peter
    A proper Triumph. Coventry made before the buy out in the 80s. :thumb2:

      Nice choice Peter. I look forward to the progress on this because I’ve been tempted a few times myself.....
      A Meriden product though Jim, made for the military after the Coventry factory was destroyed in 1940. A relatively light 350cc single, I bet it was fun to ride, apart from the rubbish drum brakes and shocks

            Peter. Nice choice and looks like it’s below 50% I’m OK with it

              For the moment I am giving up on this build for the simple fact that there are no spure numbers you have to keep going backwards and forwards to the the main page to identify the parts witch is getting awkward at the best of times I will get some pics up to show you what I mean
