Do you have to dress like The Fonz to ride it?
(Yeah I know it's not a triumph, but it looks similar to his bike if you squint a bit)

There's a lot I like in that, simple and very few coloured highlights, calipers etc.

I'd have no use for it,but it's quite nice. A mate used to have the 600 version,I recall it being a grumpy starter,particularly when hot.

That was the SRX, didn't help they were kick only....
The SR was a bloody horrible semi custom thing from the 70s. Slower than a 250 Superdream IIRC.

I like the look of it.
I bet it's dead wee and nesh though, not like the VF1000R; that was a proper man's bike.

Yup, there was definitely a knack to them & anything other than the correct tyre pressures meant horrible tank slappers too.That was the SRX, didn't help they were kick only....
Something not quite right about that tracker, bars look too high for starters
