- OK one final test to make sure it wasn't playing with us previously and a few cables to tidy up and she's done I think.

A very enjoyable mini-series !
Thank you Stew most kind.
It really is a thing of beauty, mate. Great job.
Cheers Phil.
Nice!
Like all the triples Triumph BSA, Hurricane looks the part
Cheers Jim. Personally I'm a Mk 2 R3 and beauty kit T150 man as well as the T160 and Hurricane - errr actually that doesn't rule many out. I'm with you.
Hi Angus. Yes, the pictures of Wayne Hamilton's X-75 show that, when the bike left the factory, the oil pipes passed either side of the head steadies and were tied to the top tube just ahead of the petrol taps. They are right up at the level of the head steady to frame fixing. The routing on your client's bike is probably tidier and I don't suppose you feel inclined to re-plumb the whole system!
Thanks Dave for confirming. Yea I'll not be re-plumbing - what we've done is not ideal but it's OK and fairly tidy.
Good job done😊
Yep Matt - back to the Bonny and another job on the bench 😉
Well done my friend. What a gorgeous motorcycle these are. I’d love to have one but a nice example here in the states is north of 25k. A bit out of my price range.
Many thanks Mick. Same here re prices although if you tot up how much I've spent on restorations, it would more than pay for more than one Hurricane I'm sure.
@@BSAPowerSet That is a good point Angus!
what a fantastic looking Bike 👍👌
Excellent job Angus. Diligence rewarded.
Thank you Nigel most kind. A satisfying job.
How could the restorer leave those pipes like that, almost unbelievable. Still, it would only be a 10 minute job to remove the head stays and raise the pipes? That is assuming they're not too short?
Hello Keith - yes it *might* be a relatively quick job (just like everything) but I think the pipes are too tight - before moving them the carbs were being pushed down by the gantry arm fouling on the pipes which implies there’s not much slack in the pipes at all so I think they’re short. Thanks for the interest and comment.
