]Hi TexasKZ, yes no problem. It was my fathers Triumph who unfortunately passed away in January. I helped him to get it running and roadworthy so he left it to me. It's not been fully restored as it's 99% original and as it left the shop 62 years ago. Many here like them original rather than over restored.
However, when I get round to it I'll restore it slowly. For now I'll just enjoy the odd ride on it, many thanks.

Welcome aboard; nice bike!!
Here's a couple links to some other information you should find helpful. If nothing else, be sure to read about JIS screws vs. Phillips screws as this may save you lots of money, time, and heartburn. Ed

Nice. Since you're in the UK & you have a green 650, it kinda reminds me of this video.
