Mais le premier est un twin!

J'aime le XT.

Je voudrais un Velocete Venom Thruxton Clubmans or a Goldstar (DBD34) or a manx. Yep a manx norton would be no.1 choice. Very practical.....

I could post a picture of my MZ, as that's a mono (deux temps), but I don't have any digital ones of it.

Please Mrs Mugsy buy me a nice bike......

err what engine unit is it in the first pic then?
That amal carb looks sufficiently offset to me to suggest there's one on the other side...not that all twins have 2 carbs...

<5 mins of carfully studying picture>
nope. definitely looks like a twin to me. Triumph or BSA.

That first bike is deffo a twin......mono fail for juan 😯

It's a Triton so likely to be a 750 Triumph Bonneville engine in a Norton featherbed frame....v nice tho but would take a lot of looking after

(edit) Seeing maxrays pic.....pre-unit engine so prob a 650

I'll give it a point for being a pre unit! Nice shiny alloy too.

Could have been a Norbsa! I wasn't going to risk much considering I was already sticking my neck out saying it was a twin!

I have one of these a BSA B31 about as fast as cold treacle but pure British style. I love it when she is parked up outside the pub and people walk past 15 grands worth of superbike to look at my bike leak oil in the sunshine.

No Strato.....your H2.....when I was at college for my apprenticeship there was a lad on my course who had a tuned H2 with 3 allspeeds on it. It sounded completely mental and went like stink....mind you only did about 15mpg
