Not the Jubilee GP. These are all a lot later and a lot rarer…

And this is the T140 Royal, a Triumph Motorcycles America (TMA) specified bike which was not a certified limited edition bike, but is probably the rarest of these three variants:

Yeah I noticed the torpedo’s as well!

The US one like yours looks nice, just a shame they didn’t come with Morris wheels, would look really great with those…

Hi Cliff, no not my actual bike but mine is a minter. I sold the TSX to a mate a couple of years ago, I always said 'you don't buy a 'custom bike' you build it yourself' Like I've been doing most of my life, I sold it because I was starting to alter all sorts on it and then thought nah just leave it alone.

To be honest mate, and I’m not winding you up here, I actually think that the shiny nature of your bike suits chrome rims n spokes better.

Thanks, and I'd like to think the same but...... I love cast wheels

Yep, they're only original once.

Did you keep the Corbin seat I sold you?
