British Bikes

My first real bikes were Triumphs. I've since owned a few more plus one real fast Norton 850 Commando.

I still love the old Triumphs.

I think they sound great and are beautiful to look at, even if a bit too small for my frame. My oldest son Rocky now owns my last Thiumph. This restored 1971 TR-6. It is a really cool bike.

1971 Triumph 650cc TR-6

This is Rocky's Triumph. He grew up with this bike and has always loved it. So it was pretty natural for him to end up with it.

1967 Triumph 650cc TR-6

Good old days? Like when I traded my 1963 Triumph Bonneville and $420 for this brand new, off the show room floor, 1967 TR-6...(and the dealer carried the $420 on his own books....with no interest)

1974 Norton 850cc Commando

I bought this Norton in a "basket" as they used to say. Paid $50 plus a $125 storage bill. Took it home, put it together, kicked it to life and proceeded to be blown away by one very fast motorcycle. I was always going to change the seat but Sherry really liked this bike and she said the King/Queen seat made her feel secure as we went really fast. I guess cosmetics aren't everything

1974 Triumph Bonneville 750cc Trident

This is another photo of Rocky's Triumph that Sherry took with her new Nikon...I think she nailed it.

Here are a couple of really cool posters I photographed at the

National Motorcycle Museum in Coventry England.


If this is the 60's..	..then this must be the 70's..
