1. 1965 Thruxton.
I have had this machine since 1973 and am the third owner since it left Alec 
Bennett's in September 1965. It is early enough to have all the Tickle bits 
fitted. Original spec. was blue with no fairing, but in my time it has been 
black then back to blue. I have not modified it for unleaded fuel, but run 
it on a 50/50 mix of unleaded and avgas and it goes very well.

2. 1963 Viper
Just an ordinary Viper I have had since 1978. It came to me as the previous 
owner saw I had the Thruxton. It came chopped and coloured pink and blue!

3. 1938 MSS
I obtained this a couple of years ago, complete but heavily rusted, as it had 
stood unused since 1957 when it was last taxed. As far as I am aware it 
always ran with a sidecar. Restoration is not totally to original as I used 
stainless for all fixings including the rear light, a copy of which I could 
not find anywhere else.
I am tempted to make it a KTS as I have always yearned for a camshaft model.
