Hi Pete
The Triumph is going tommorow, I started out as a mechanic late 70's early 80's and never rode or worked on a brit, after the resto I didnt really like the bike so I decided to go back to what I new and liked best Japs.
I also built a CB985F in the 90's just to keep my hand in ( once i could afford it)
Thanks re the clocks there mechanical as well and a bit of synergy with engines.
I'll keep everyone posted with the K3
Simon

I had a GT250A and it was probably one of my favourite bikes.

Went like hell but wouldn't quite pull a ton.
