woooah that takes me back :thumbsup: I was co-opted to 'help' with a triton construction at age 13 - my fingers were just right for some job or other :)

Superb :D

I bought a featherbed wideline frame and a pre unit 650 Triumph and Beta forks and most of the bits needed to build one in the early 70s when I was note but a lad. I never built it but sold it on in boxes to an enthusiast. I wish now I hadn't. :doh:
I sold a Rickman Honda in the early 80s and wish I hadn't. :doh:
I am NOT selling the Raptor coz I would have used up my three wishes.
Mind you I wouldn't mind a Triton.
Nice bike. :nod:

need to dig it out from the back of the shed, gives a few days.
I have the 2LS norton brake conversion and the 56 skinny yolked forks, but the hub is warped and the brake is awful.
Stay calm.

Proper bike. Nothing sounds quite as good as a Brit with a pair of meggas on.
