Smooth bonnie

Are you referring to a Harris Bonnie? The vast majority of parts are interchangable / easily replaceable with Meriden stuff.

Regarding Dave Nourish, his son Andy is slowly building up to supply more and more Nourish replacement stuff. He’s just finished some new heads. I don’t think it will be too long before he offers an 8 valve conversion for T140s again.

Thanks for that Nigel, & let me know if you hear any more.
I was previously referring to the 8 valve TSS, which I mistook your picture for (senior moment!)

Ahh!

Well the TSS did look very similar to be fair.

That was a fabulous bike. But as you say, a little more development and it would have been really something. Another ‘what could have been’ story.

But… if Meriden had never gone bust, there wouldn’t have been Hinckley Triumph. So maybe Meriden had to die for Triumph to prosper…
