Prime those Amals, twist the wick, and hear the thunder roar! I had a Thunderbolt once, so this brings back a lot of memories. Thanks for raising an old man's pulse rate.
A great moment captured. First kick ..... staight in gear and couldn't wait to ride it ....... love it. There's a lot of time and work gone in to that bike. Out of the cellar like a vintage wine. Great work
Well done !!! Reminds me of the '72 650 Lightning my father rode here in the States when I was a child in the early 70's. Funny how 40 odd years later, hearing your bike brought back memories of how his sounded...it sounded the same.
very nice job well done, little bit of tuning needed, specially low down, rolled off on one cylinder at the start, but hey you gotta fettle a bit after the first run. lovely to see another box of bits turned into a bike.
Stellar Wahl der grauen Rahmen. Macht wirklich die schwarz lackierten Tank und Chrom Pop. Ich fahre eine 1968 Triumph Trophy Sport hier in North Central Texas "Cowtown" Fort Worth. Die heutige hohe Temperatur war 70 fahrenheit. Y'All haben einen Knall mit dem beeza. -gilpin 2-26-16
Thomas Nessman, I hope they did something with the tank because the paint on it in the video is awful! there is no shine to it at all, needs a good rub down, buffing and/or clear coat, depending on what paint was used?
