Hi Dom, brilliant stuff. Well, that wasn't nerve racking at all LOL. So proud to be a part of this build. The tank looks awesome even if we do say so ourselves . You know where we are if you ever need us again. Have a great Christmas Rich, Aline and Tom from TAB Classics.

@DominicChineas 8 месяцев назад

Thanks SO much!!! The tank absolutely makes the bike, I hope you all have a lovely Christmas and I hope to see you soon!

Hello Dom, I have been watching this build with interest. The Triumph used to belong to my Dad who passed away earlier this year. As a motorcyclists myself, I'd always dreamt about doing it up myself. Watching the build, it was way above my skill level and I'd never have gotten it apart, let alone back together. Only ever seeing it rotting in the garage, it was a wonderful Christmas present seeing it spring (reluctantly) back to life. Well done, and i wish you many happy miles on it! Mark Guest

@oldschool1993 8 месяцев назад

I think that spark tester was killing one of your cylinders, they are designed to test if you have spark, but will reduce the current to the plug.

@leslieaustin151 8 месяцев назад

My thought too. But great to see/hear it running. Bet your neighbours will love you with that exhaust system! Have a great Christmas Dom and Jon. Then back on it! Les

I was saying this whilst watching the video as well!

@jeremyatkinson4976 8 месяцев назад

@@VenturiMotorWorks Would it run at all with the leads swapped? I'd fiddle with the idle mixture which feels too rich,[if spitting back then too lean] then if needed check the timing which may be too advanced. To clear excess fuel kick over with the throttle wide open, maybe 20 kicks

@VenturiMotorWorks 8 месяцев назад

@@jeremyatkinson4976 I don’t think it would run with leads swapped. I was referring to the spark plug tester.

What a ball's up Alan Milyard has nothing to fear

@MrMarksdaniels 5 месяцев назад

I agree, Alan has a logical approach to problems second to none, and knows that more haste means less speed. If a bike won’t start no amount of pushing will cure it.

@kentmckean6795 8 месяцев назад

Nice, very nice... I have found that an inline spark tester like the one you are using significantly decreases the spark at the plug. Only for testing, not good for running. That probably killed that one cylinder, or at least made it MUCH harder to get it running.

@DominicChineas 8 месяцев назад

@JamesWilson-ry7gw 4 месяца назад

Hi guys. That was a fun series thank you! Can you do an update video showing the bike on the road and let us know how she runs and rides now? After all that work it would be great to see you both out there enjoying the bike as intended. My Father in Law has a Tiger 90 sat in his garage and it’s keeping me awake at night thinking about a possible project….! 😂

@samrodian919 8 месяцев назад

Dom I think a lot of your problems with it not wanting to tick over is your exhaust system. Those engines were designed to work with back pressure from the silencer, not straight through pipes. The timing will not be factory with open pipes. And I would be very surprised if it would pass an MOT, not that it needs it now as an original 1963? bike. I know you were trying to keep it running but having just had a rebore and new pistons and rings, keep the revs down until the rings have shaken hands with the bores or you will have a seizure . Have a great Christmas and New Year. Well done to both yourself and good old John!

@daveco1270 8 месяцев назад

Love the handlebars. It's a great feeling when they finally fire up. That bike should start with a kick or two when everything is set right

Love it Dom. Determination personified - who needs expensive gym membership 😂 If I were you, I’d consider going back to points ignition especially for a sled like yours. I find it a bit more forgiving than electronic stuff which is often very sensitive to voltage. You can also adjust points at the side of the road whereas if electronics fail - it’s game over
