Took the Triumph for a short ride yesterday to Neil’s as at the weekend I de wet sumped it - was thinking of using it for breakfast meet on Wednesday  While in Neil’s the heavens opened and my nice polished bike suffered from the wet roads on the way back but look at this when I arrived home   and the hail stones took the pebble dashing off the house  |

11 Years for the Triumph My BSA the log book says I have had it 23 years It was the triumph I was referring to, a friend of mine has one, looks identical, he's looking at selling it They are worth £2500 to £4000 depending on condition Quite a lot on the market at the moment so a bit of competition in selling it Mine is 1959 so no was tax and mot free under the old pre 1st Jan 60 rule - lost a bit of its value when the 40 year rule came in |
