Hardly matters - once the original maker starts making 'tribute bikes' you know the prices of the real deal are headed for the sky...

I thought the Triumph ones for for old guys who needed electric starters and could no longer be arsed fixing them...

Pfft - I guess the new Hinkly bonnies could be the exception but then look at the prices of good 650 twins these days - yikes....I thought the Triumph ones for for old guys who needed electric starters and could no longer be arsed fixing them...
Oh - and yes - I resemble that remark...

It could compete with the late model Ducati Paul Smart and MHR Replicas for ugliness (and probably win)

The one on TM would appear not to have been worth 12K nor was the 73 Commando.
Edit: no the Commando did sell for over 13K it would appear.

yes and I have it on good authority that it didn't even run properly, needed new carbs.
The 73's have /5 bits on them and they are the first ones so seem to fetch more, the 76 is probably the better machine. The made 15 000 plus of them so
they are hardly rare.
