Pre 65 Scottish Results

[John Wakefield]

Here are the results for the Pr 65 Scottish, unfortunately the riders bikes are not listed but No 126 Adam McCanna is on a 24TCS and 166 Liam Robinson on a modified MDS AAR588A are two I spotted on a U Tube video of the event. Chris Barnett on a much modified Anglian got a 1st Class Award

There are some good videos on a facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2232...ion_affordance I was particularly taken by a bike with a Norton Jubilee engine. Is it too late to put one (or a Navigator / ES400) in my embryonic Grumph? Probably, and probably outside my competence anyway.

[John Wakefield]

No not at all Ian Go for it, the Norton Jubilee, Navigator or ES400 would probably be an easier fit and you would have a real special. I would go for the 350 Navigator or 400cc ES 400 though.

I think I'll stick to the Triumph version for Mark 1 but there could always be a Mark 2. I'll kepp my eye open for a suitable engine.....

[John Wakefield]

You could always go for a 250cc Triumph Tigress scooter engine, there was one of these in the Scottish trial. BSA development dept even produced a prototype which Edward Turner was not amused about. http://www.bsaotter.com/tigress_in_y...amed_vera.html

I think the 3TA is as far as I want to go in the Meriden field. I remember when I was at school one of my wealthy classmates had a Tina. We took great delight in sabotaging the little switch that stopped it from pulling away if there was no-one on the seat.
