Well, not so much dusted, more like a quick wash in between Waikato showers.
Those that knew of my "off" on the way to the KB gathering back in Easter, (and the subsequent ankle/bike/riding pleasure loss), may, or may not care that the Trumpy is ready to roll again.
Many thanks to :
Robert Taylor, for sorting out the front forks, and supplying a nice new Ohlins shock:love:.
John at Wheel and Frame NZ, for trueing the bent tubes to Roberts high standards.
Warren at Virgin Mufflers for giving the triple a new throaty tone and Hamilton M/Cycle centre for various bits and bobs.
Heaps of work went into the rebuild, and with summer just around the corner, its time the black beastie stretched it's legs a bit.:woohoo:

Nice old dunger.

My tbird needs a birthday, chrome is peeling off it in sheets, but she's still sweet to ride.

Race techs Ohlins, all that.

Like the T Bird.:niceone:
Those carbed triples of that era may not of been super quick, but "Damn", that engine is bullet proof.
