I only ever rode it up the rd The guy I bought it off Won the Manx gp Abit not on this but he did ride it at the Manx. Drinky on here bought it from me & rode it round Spa ? I think A thoroughly nice bloke for a lovely bike to go too. Cheers Paul.
Sorry John Yes I think it is a 5 speed It had some trick bits on it a Carrillo con rod & a ally barrel I do believe & a nice carb can't remember what that was tho. Cheers Paul.
I saw 1 of those for sale in Paul denmans in Ramsey the iom a few years ago Very nice. Didn't know they were road legal
They were never sold as road legal, but I daresay it wouldn't present too much of a hurdle for a dedicated fan or dealer. I'd bloody love one. That and an HP2. I must have a thing for tractor engines...
T160 Trident was always my dream as a teenager, I finally got one 2 years ago. OW31 TZ750 Yamaha was/is just an incredible piece of kit and with reed valves on the inlets it is quite a tractable engine making it a surprisingly good road bike (don't ask me how I know ) which would give riders of many newer bikes quite a surprise.
Again? I'd like to thank the panel of judges, all contributors, Elise for being the perfect clown ... thank you. Thank you all!
