Ever seen the "Quadrant"? I saw it on the road once many years ago

Yes, in the early 80s
I saw it being ridden in Ross on Wye
Is it at the National Motorcycle Museum now?
I assume there was more than one

I’ve seen it at the NMM.
An interesting exercise, but nowhere near production ready.

Yep. The Quadrant is in the National motorcycle museum. As far as I remember there was only one prototype built.

I believe that the only red models were the BSA Rocket Three, offered in "Flamboyant Red". The Triumph and BSA were very similar, although the BSA engine's cylinders were sloped forward slightly and it used a duplex down tube frame. The Trident engine was taller, and would not fit in the duplex frame and so Triumph used their own.
I was also told that all triples were, in fact produced in the BSA factory.
Rocket Three versions are, apparently slightly more expensive to buy, however the non availability of many parts, especially trim is, apparently, a problem.
