    Very cool. I just got a 1967 Trophy T100 scrambler last month. Those Triumph scrambler 500s always reminded me of Schwinn Stingrays. Lovin it. The Trophy sits in my front room with my four Harleys.

    The old bonnys like a lot of fuel to start them up and if im not mistaken your bike was running on one cylender at idle in the beginning?how ever she sounds and looks gorgeous

      This guy just doesnt know triumph. Opens both gas valves and runs with full choke.

    Watch that shoelace loop on the shifter. You ain't lived till you've tried to put your foot down with it lassoed around it! ~DU69160

    Great bike. Did you forget to turn the choke off once you were out on the road?

    • @XLR8RRICK
      @XLR8RRICK ปีที่แล้ว

      The choke is just to start it he forgot and didnt notice it wasnt running right. He also turned on both Gas taps, One is a reserve he just doesnt know.

      These bikes don't have chokes.

      @@leaflee2066 Some people remove them, but the Amal carbs came with a choke. It appears he has his installed. You can see the choke lever on the right side of the handlebars.

    4:00 he is driving away with the Choke on full. I never put the bike in gear with the choke enabled.

    Yeah, I have to kick my 67 like 5, 10, or 30 times as well to get her started 🤣 good looking bike though.

    You need to learn to hear when the engine is not happy. Turn the choke off earlier and do the bike a favour. Can’t you hear it hunting?

      He really has no idea or just has more money than awareness.
