You’re a lucky man
I would love to have the time to do a project like this
Keep the pictures coming

 

Nice one! Look forward to seeing it progress.

 

Would have been £3000 over here !!!!

 

Go into work earlier then Dilli

 

Love it Dennis, looking forward to seeing you bring her back to life.

 

Dennis
Welcome to the Family. You got a bit of a project there. But keep us all updated and let us know how its coming along. It make me particularly proud that the old Brit bikes lasted so well and even prouder that people like yourself cares enough to bring them back to life. Wish you all the luck in the world.
Regards
Joe.

 

Dennis.
The Boys and Girls on here virtually talked me through my Silver Jubilee when I was redoing the valve timing. I had the cam gear way out. Yes it is rewarding as well to think you have rebuilt a machine that would otherwise ended up in a crusher somewhere. Good luck with the rebuild.
Regards
Joe.

 

Just keep it away from @dilligaf or he will have a semi 5th wheel fitted all the best mate

 

Looks like a great project, please keep the photos coming, you've got a fair bit of work to do there but it will be worth it.

 

Hi Dennis welcome I did a 1971 T120 last winter that was a basket case brought over from America, Cost me £3,000 over here that was the going price.
Had loads of fun and head scratching and when I finished it I was so pleased, can’t bring myself to sell her.
Enjoy your retirement
Danny

 

That looks great Daniel, but I’m curious why there’s such a big gap between the front wheel and mudguard?

 

Hi Yorkshireman yes I know that was the standard American mudguard this was the first of the oil in frame model a T120RV I’m told they only made about 200 so they could enter another race catagory ? everything about it was cheap, I had intended to change it but had spent enough at the time.
When I get back from a long trip down under I might change my mind.
Regards Danny

That surely was the 71 BSA mudguard. Never seen it fitted to a Triumph. But who am I to question it authenticity.
Nice Machine though. Just hope I can do as well with my TSX.
Regards
Joe.

 

Hi Joe I’m no expert ether but I believe BSA owned Triumph at the time or visa versa cheers
