Description
Duncan bought this bike standard in 1992 with 22.000 miles on [new speedo fitted during upgrade]. but he has so many vehicles. that he never used it!
Frame number: XA16563 and Engine number: XA16563.
It was in fantastic condition. so eventually in 1998. he decided to totally refresh it. but at the same time. make it into something special. He commissioned PJT Dynamics [ex-Triumph racers]. in Beverley. Yorkshire to build a race bike for the street. Many £1000's later. and 15 years on. Duncan went to collect the finished bike! It is stunning. but aged over 70 years old. Duncan is in no fit state to ride the bike. So here it is.
Please study the pictures carefully. and ask any questions.
Here is the information i have: Daylight MOT until February 24th. Rearsets manufactured and fitted. Differential fork yokes fitted. Complete re-wire.
