Had the Triumph out Sunday for the first time this year. Had to get some of the kit out the shed first because she’s buried behind it🤔

Nice that one,, What year is the triumph ? has that one come back to the UK from the states or is it a UK bike,

Those downpipes look quiet......not!!

It’s a 1967 TT Bonneville, as far as I’m aware all were exported to US for dirt track racing on the ovals. No lights, just rev counter, 11:1 comp ratio and yes-no silencers. Not too loud if if you keep the throttle backed off. Not as bad as a ported 500i🤔

The exhaust pipes are 2” diameter and I’ve got inserts similar to the old VW beetle exhausts inserted to quieten it down a bit?

2011 Husqvarna 125TE 4 Stroke, came across this with only 320 miles on it since 2011. Parked up after a scare. It’s a Yamaha engine but all the rest is from that era of Husqvarna ie very high end wheels brakes  etc etc. Internet pic but  it I’ll put up a few more once I give it a clean up and drop the oil/fluids etc, although to tell the truth apart from dust it’s like it came out of the showroom.  What’s the bike types thoughts on value ??

Had an itch for a while so took the plunge! Bought a 2012 Triumph 675R, its a limited edition end of line run of them for 2012, only did 30 and this is #25, very very clean and only done 6500 miles.

Nice 👍used to have the Old Super  Tenere 750 back in the early 90s, great distance tool. I’m nearly 6,6” and could do a whole day on it quite comfortably that’s more than can be said for the GPZ mentioned. 

Took the Newcastle to Gothenburg (when we had a Scandinavian ferry service) then Gothenburg to Stockholm and a ferry again to Turku and onwards to Pori in summer91 on a GPZ1000RX spent the whole summer there until I ran out of coin, had a proper blast, no kids back then and not long out the army, just a total do what I want summer  👍. Always wanted to do it again but go up around the top of the Gulf of Bothnia 🤔
