Hello,
Been lurking for a while. Used to belong to ICOA in the Clint Hooper days. Then left my 79 CBX (I bought new) out in the back 40 while I pursued Yamaha FZR's and other madness. Now, I'm going to bring the old girl back up to snuff as soon as I finish with my current refurbishment (Triumph Cub).

Welcome aboard. Always great to hear about a resto instead of a part-out.
Always like the look of the Cub. Blasphemy that Triumph is using that name for its 3 cylinder 800cc dual purpose bike.

It gets worse, look at what they are calling a Trident. Regardles of whether you like the Trident today, naming it for the first British superbike, and arguably, the first superbike period is another blasphemy.

Ain't it the truth.
I had a '75 T160, another one of those "wish i had never sold" bikes.
