Well, it's taken a week to get these pics as the weather has been so awful this side of the Pond. "We've" only had one outing on the bike since I rode her home last Wednesday & I say "we" because "I" did'nt get to ride it again, as it was comandeered by the wife.

On the 'waiting for arrival' list is the Lucas style rearlamp set from NewBonneville & the clutch lifter, on the 'maybe' list are a set of Hyde's 'M' bars, because I am used to a lower position on my old Brits, but Sue likes the 'stock' ones, so we'll have to see. She should prefer the lower ones too, because she's only small, but, being a modern girl she doesn't like changing anything on something 'new'.

Hey, orange and silver? Is that for Euro sales only? I have not seen that combo. Good looking maching - and another one without much pipe bluing.

Brooksie

Very nice set up. These are great bikes aren't they?

As far a I know, the Lucifer Orange & Silver was (one of)the 'Millenium' (or Centennary) colour way's a few years ago ?

The Orange & Silver was 'on display' in the Show Room when I went to confirm to myself that I wanted the 'green & gold' !
O & S won

Windy Corner Triumph, which is where it came from is within a couple of miles of the Factory at Hinckley & they seem to get good access to the 'specials' ? Apparently Triumph are doing 50 of the Orange & Silver's. Not sure if any will get to the States. I saw another two at W/C. If you get a minute google their Web Site, to see their '60's series replica colour series bikes....very tempting.

As for the pipes, well, they've only done about 86 miles, so they may colour up some more yet, but it's got TOR's fitted, with the mod's to carb & air intake, so hopefully won't get too hot.

....& as for the wife, it's nice to share the bike 'thing' so I don't discourage her. She's already suggested I sell the Nortons & get another Hinckley Bonnie, & that's favourite at the moment :wink:

Wow. Just been to Windy Corner's website and had a look at their "Sixties series". Stunning, just stunning. Wish they would do more of these.

BTW: I have a B&W '04. If I wanted to do the fenders in "retro-style" should they be white with black lined and gold pinstriped or black with white lined and gold pinstriped?

Nice Bike! Did the grab rail/rack come with it or was that extra? Where did it come from?

I'm a huge fan of that color combo, looks great! I really didn't like the stock bars. I put on some of the NH superbars and now it feels perfect. Have fun!

Tritonshed

The rack/rail is a standard Renntec one, it was fitted by the dealer along with the gaiters, pipes, air mod & jets, cam covers, Scott Oiler, Data tool, engine bars & badges pre-delivery. Save me having to fiddle & fitting is free 'up front' !!
