Two new toys

[otherwise]

I just had these two offered at a price that I couldn't refuse.
The plan is to move the Trident on quickly at a reasonable price and keep the Triton as a project bike.
I've got a couple of things on the go just now so the Triton will sit for a while. At this time I have no idea of what I'll do with it, do up as is, fit a new Bonneville EFI motor, don't think so but will even consider making it into a Norley .

na ! he's already in trubble with the wife ! thats why he's trying to come up with a way of descising the triton , so she wont notice it in the back of the garage .
and he'll have to sell the trident so she wont notice the money missing .

They both look in good shape well done. I would have a problem parting with either of them.

Riding in on the Triton negotiating the building rubble.



My youngest granddaughter was on hand to give some worthwhile advice.

Kev you going to offend Gromit with that Triton as you have a bit of pink string holding something on down by the pipes mate, has she taught you nothing you know it is supposed to be duck tape

Well at lreast you are wearing an open face on the Triton Kev but it should be matt black,oh, and lose the visor eh.

Oh and BTW,real cute wee grand daughter.Are you sure she's related to you ?

Previous owners "pink string", the first planned job will involve duck tape.

The open face is only a few weeks old, the visor and gloss colour is me hanging on to the old Kev. Hey we all can't be as cool as you Harry.

I was only joking about the little girl being my granddaughter she came from "Rent a cute kid for photo shoots", I hate it when I get found out.

Thanks Carl re granddaughter.
You may remember some time back I had 4 very nice classic bikes and the one new bike. I cut back to my favourite classic and the new bike and that's the way I want it. BUT the Triton has the frame and is a good starting point to slowly build a project up from and after I sell the Trident it won't owe me very much so I moved when they were offered. Actually after I got them home and looked at the building project that I have on the go just now I kicked myself for complicating my life, down the road I'll be happy that I acted when they were offered.

 

[CarlS]

I am glad you jumped at the opportunity. I do remember your previous classic collection.

 

[keystiger]

Congrats Otherwise FINE looking bikes both. I would offer to take one off your hands........but its a bit of a commute.
Enjoy them.
