US13_Ford Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 Well fellow Trolls, I have been busy the last 3 weeks besides flying with you crazy lads. I have a 1976 Triumph Bonneville 750 (USA) that was taken down to repair a crack in the frame/oil tank. Everything behind the gooseneck and handle bars was removed to prepare the welding. I was lazy after taking everything off and left the project sit until covid came along. since i have been laid off I had plenty of time to continue the project. About two months ago I took the frame to the welder. I also tore the engine down to fix some oil leaks (shock an oil leaking Triumph). Just finished the reassembly and the attached video is the first start. It almost better than VR riding her again lol 5 2

US13_Ford Posted September 19, 2020 Author Posted September 19, 2020 The T140 is a kick start, since I am 63 its great motivation to keep it running right ?. Very nice Bike Trooper. Love the new Triumphs too. I like all motorcycles. The T140 is the first in my collection. 1
messsucher Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 My life and sweet dear. Would get daily head explody without this I call Miroslava, but who is at times mean like Margaret Thatcher, hence when I am understanding about drama she rises I may call her Iron Lady too. 1
US13_Ford Posted October 4, 2020 Author Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) Will Be picking up at 1971 BSA 250 from my son in law in Chicago in a couple weeks. I will be resurrecting her to running/riding condition. If you don't mind I will post before and after pics. I the meantime I am building a gaming system for my daughters future father-in-law. He wants to learn to game and fly ww1 and ww2 aircraft. I am going to teach how to fly and shoot us down ? Edited October 4, 2020 by ST_Zilch56 1
