Been doing a few bits & bobs.... Stripped the front end as the forks were sticking, all new bushes in them, but they didn't move to smoothly. Decided to fit me spare 2LS T120 wheel whilst I was at it....

Needed to switch the forks round and file a bit off the new wheel axle - have to get a new cable too :!:

The engine runs sweet but a bit of oil around the push rod tubes, so removed the head and fitted new seals. Bike is now fully wired up and all lights and horn are working.

Sent some detail to the DVLA after speaking to a nice chap at the Triumph Owners Motorcycle Club. He discovered it was first registered on 5th Oct 1961, but the original plate has been used on a Porsche (911 CAC) :evil:

Got me "recovered" seat back - cheers to Uk Kev for helping me get it sorted :P

Few bits to sort, then I can get an MOT & apply for an age related plate from the DVLA!
