Default my new project

56k beware:

http://motohero.net/triumph/

its a 1968 T100R Triumph Daytona. This is the first bike/engine to go over 100MPH on a production bike.


Im reading the manual before I do anything with it.

In the mean time, I am in need of some 95 zx6r parts. specifically front end and swingarm/shock/etc. CHEAP!

Cool find. Do you restore old bikes or is this your first?

hass - so yes, i am still nuts - hey look there they are on your chin!

this is my first restoration and full on rebuild. it should be fun, i just finished reading the manual, so now i am about to start doing actual work on the bike.

as far as parts being available, there are lots of parts, but they are expensive. if im lucky, which i think i am after sifting through everything, it looks like everything is here, just needs some work.

thanks for the support.
