It looks amazing and runs really well. It starts readily, idles well, pulls strongly and cleanly and brakes well. The steering is spot on too. There are no leaks, rattles or smoke. The battery charges and all the electrics work fine.
I bought this bike as project from the Stafford show three years ago. It is an ex Police machine. It was looking bit scruffy although the basics worked fine. have receipts for full engine rebuild some time ago. decided it to refresh it and the results are good.
1970 was the final year of the pre oil-in-frame 650 Triumphs and these are considered to be the most valuable of the unit twins. In particular the engines are powerful, the twin leading shoe front brake is considered to be about the best there is, and the styling is just so right. This is matching numbers UK bike which adds certain exclusivity! lot of these machines have been brought back from the USA, home models are bit rarer.
If you are looking for British classic with strong kerb appeal, good parts availability, good investment value which is usable and as vice free as possible, this machine is good choice. single carburettor, new fuel and ignition system coupled with the other recent work adds up to machine that is rideable and desirable. have done all the work myself.
I have too many bikes in my collection and regrettably this one will have to go. have featherbed Norton which is my long term Brit twin.
