Yes, I did. Saturday evening I was working on my vintage Triumph Daytona 500. I'm wanting to get it running and polished out to go on this years Distinguished Gentlemans Ride. *May as well ride in style.

"That is when you know you are old I guess. I remember when the Daytona
was the new beginner ride.. Later most of them were cut up into
"choppers" so a stock one might be "vintage" now. I think the Triumph
chopper thing was fairly short lived but a lot fell to the hands of
customizers in the 70s. Same is true of the big brother Bonneville"



Former next door neighbour had (has?) a late 60's Triumph Boonville. Got to drive it around the neighbourhood about 20 years ago. Used to see a lot of Triumphs and BSA's around the city when we were growing up. Lot of navy guys seemed to like them
