[QUOTE="Shawn Lamb, post: 15261, member: 2041"] [ATTACH]598.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]597.vB[/ATTACH] Dreams of Ogri.. Or I just purchased this "white elephant"!! Coming home (back to England) is this Vincent. I hope to open these pics up to anyone who can recommend sources for missing parts and sources of information. The tank is around but seat and obviously a lot of other bits are AWOL. I am open to ideas (keep it a racer?) to recommendations on available services (feel free to solicit). Thougths on the "correct" rear hub? This is a triumph conical unit. Seat ideas.. Speculate on history? Engine condition is unknown. Thanks to the club, I have been told it is a 48 Rapide. Previous owner remembers taking it to Lightning specs years ago. Should I de-tune for the road? Should I take the horrible black paint off or repaint satin after rebuild? This procedure is out of my skillset. Comments/contact are welcome. Bike is expected to be in the UK in late April early May. [/QUOTE]
