Classic Triton Cafe Racer

This bike has been built by people who know what classic Tritons are
and how Triumph engines work.

This bike runs like a dream.
Not been sat in a garage for the past few years gathering dust – doesn't need commissioning, it goes now.

Original Norton Featherbed (wideline) frame. The bike was originally a 500cc Norton and then converted to a 650cc Triton in 1986. Now the T110 engine has been rebuilt.

It comes with the original period number plate and the genuine period buff logbook, first registered in 1960.
(This also comes with a new logbook and is classified for no tax or MOT.)

I purchased the bike in 2011.

A classic bike without all the modern brake discs and suspension mods from a Jap bike.

See the bike on page 10 of this July's Classic Bike Guide. (It's not a 1957 as stated, it is actually a 1960.)

The engine was built by two engineers who advertise in *Classic Bike* and are well known. I then took the bike to Steve Blackwell, founder and chairman of The Triton Owners Club (where I am also a member). Steve worked on it for many months, putting it back together, modifying, and upgrading everything, as well as rewiring it and giving it the look it has now – pure classic Triton. If you can call it that, as we all know, they are a labor of love and are all different and personal.
