Circa 1968, close to the way it was in the article in the previous post but now sporting a huge 15" X ? drag slick.
The clutch is a mix of Sportster, Triumph & Ariel parts.
Clean as a whistle Triumph pre-unit forks that look slightly shortened. I like the late 1950's Triumph swingarm incorperated into the chassis. Running some spiffy Chantland big bore cylinders at this point and back to a four inch slick. Too bad it lost the beautiful primary cover. Some hairy tales in this short article that's definitlely worth a read.

Don still lives in El Monte, I deliver his mail every day.
ReplyDeleteI knew Don back in the 60's. I drag raced with Boris Murray, and we saw Don often at the track. I would love to talk to him. Please contact me at gkateley@sbcglobal.net Thanks Gordon Kateley
