TRITON 1972

Built to NZ Classic Motorcycle Racing Register pre 76' open post classic specs

Could also be used in pre 72' street racing

Used for three meetings, total 4 hrs approx. Has had four oil & filter changes in that time, one after each meeting & one after initial run up.

Goes very well, have not thrashed it, 6,500rpm max, prob about 190kph down back straight of Pukekohe.

Build as a fun track bike to experience classic racing. Been there, done that, time for someone else to enjoy. Could be converted to road bike, would need charging system, kick start, lights, wiring etc etc. Also, have racing safety gear for sale if interested.

Listed below build cost, labour of love.
