    I know it not old but a few years ago. I will get some of my old pictures out soon and scan them onto the computer and share some more. I do love looking at the bygone years.

    This is scary stuff...
    Looking for things today, I found this old photo of me and my A10 Gold Flash - I think taken around 1976.... eeek!
    Then this thread appears amongst the new posts (a bit of a weird coincidence I thought), so scanned it to show all.
    Loved this bike.

    Didn't last long with me either. But I wish I had of kept the 160. Also glad you could open them as me and computers don't go that well. As I go through my old photos I will post some. Think I've had more bikes than dinners. Slowing down now. Well till the next one comes along. Was just telling my better half I might sell my hornet and get a 675 to replace it.

    I was just thinking of having all Triumphs in the garage. Speed these days makes my brain if I got one hurt. The Speed Triple is a phenominal machine.

    You can tell SU she's got a terrific machine and must have a lot more nerve than I. Just sitting there it looks fast to fast.
