Harleys for life! !!!!!!!!!!! Na I'm kidding I understand I got a trumpet of my own lol. Post progress pics!!
Heres my mutt
Are you kidding me!! that thing is ******* sick!! post a couple more pics and deets (maybe in a seperate thread so we dont hi jack this one any more lol)
I appreciate the concern. First I got to get her running, then I'll have to get used to the controls!!
You think the Triumph takes some getting used to, try an old '20's Indian Scout. Throttle on left grip, spark advance on right grip, hand shift, foot clutch, etc.
Now that took some getting used to, too!!
Yeah my next door neighbor has a 1918 FORD T and it has the throttle and the spark advance on the steering wheel and the shifter operated by your left foot while pressing down on the clutch with your right foot with the brake between the two, oh and the shifter goes like this, I believe as I have never tried it, all the way down is reverse, mid way up is first and all the up, released, is second. Now try that on an LA or New York city street.
Love those old Triumphs. Have a 68 TR6C with bonne heads and a 750 big bore and a complete motor and gas tank from a 69 T120, with a trophy head (single carb). The TR6C came with aftermarket 2 up seat with sissy bar, hard bags and a bat wing fairing (missing mounting brackets) Everything is torn down (alot of stuff powder coated already)because I was going to build a rigid chop, but since I might get a panhead, all triumph stuff is up for sale.
All different tools to work on the brit stuff. Easy to work on, and they have alot of personality.

Damn I wanted single carb head too. Always liked the look of one carb out the back center.
