    Is that a 250cc Continental GT engine? How did it go?
     
  3. 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.
     
  4. Hi Paul

    Thanks for your reply. I was curious if it was a 250cc Continental GT engine?
     
  5. 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.

  9. beauty !!!!!!
     
  10. Would have liked to have seen (heard) it running instead of generic trailer music....
     
  11. 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...
     
  12. Snap! Saw an HP2 close up at Snetterton once - stunning machine, and went pretty well too!

    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 :D) which would give riders of many newer bikes quite a surprise.
