Currently working on a 1976 T140. Purchased it fairly reasonably. Engine top end in a milk crate but all parts are there and numbers match! Disassembled the bottom end and building up from there.
Also have a 1972 TR6RV.....barn find with 16k miles. Lots of time polishing and cleaning but runs like a top!

Welcome to TT from Eastern Canada.
That's a nice barn find. Looks very sharp.
Sounds like you have another great bike to fix up.
jump in and have fun.
Enjoy your ride(s).

Thanks, the Tiger came out of upstate NY. Was sitting in mans barn for close to 30 years. Hopefully the T140 will be as fun as the TR6.
 
Heres the T140. Think the previous owner had plans to make a chopper by looking at the paint and the front fender. I got it tore down to the bare frame ready for powder coating. The paint scheme has got to go! Did manage to find a NOS front fender. Luckily the previous owner had the fender stays. Top end has been bored .020 over. Speedo says 9459 miles. Will post progress pictures later.
