Like EGLI , DRESDA regeisterd the ' TRITON ' as a model , with Dresda , the Manufacturor . SO , ( bitsa
) :shock: in THIS CASE is a misnomer , Like a ' EGLI ' , It is a ' DRESDA '

Unfortunately , why there ended up being so many Featherbeds with Triumph Twins in them , was the pre 1960 triumphs steered so atrociously you couldnt leave the thottle on long enough to blow it apart ,
But plenty went off the road , The Nortons , on the other hand , were ' The Worlds Best roadholder ' so delinquent youths could leave the throttle on the stop , combined with the maintainace regime , the things
blew apart . HENCE there were plenty of engineless Nortons and bent Triumphs going cheap .This seldom applied to Manx Chassis , or Bonneville engines .Though Cooper had to buy Whole Manxes to liberate
the Engines for his ' Cooper 500 ' raceing cars , so new Manx rolling chassis were not unobtainable . If you wernt short of a bob . or an engine , Like a Vincent or Combat .
Now , Weslake . ! Er . . . . Yes ! right .
