Agreed. She`s a nice looking Trumpet !

Even though I don`t like brit iron.

Problem is they never moved on in the styling stakes :(

We see lots of zeds on here, but not many Triumphs, [especially ones as pretty as that].

Hello Keefleaf,
The workbench came free and the wheels I put on myself :save - my plan is to put a new work surface and lower the bace/wheels and it should be better to work on. Very handy working on the engine so far

I was going to repaint her Z green, i love that colour :drool What do you think :?:

Regards
