Hey, Anyone ever own one or have a project bike they may want to sell? Looking to make cafe racer out of one of these.
 
My last bike was a black 1974 Trident that I owned years ago. Out of all the bikes I've ever owned, it was my favorite. I got stupid and let ex-my brother in law borrow it for a day. It caught fire with him when he over-tickled the carbs, spilled gas all over the starter, then hit the start button. I miss the Trident a heck of a lot more than I do him.

I do love the old British bikes having owned nothing but Triumphs, BSAs and a Royal Enfield. Don't know how I missed out on owning a Norton.
 
The only old Triumph I currently have is a 1970 Trophy 250, but I do have a newer Triumph Rocket III, a 2005 model. I'll keep an ear to the e-ground on the bike forums I belong to for ya though.
