Looking good mate. It really does seem to be a great combination of classic and modern - even the remote reservoir shocks dont look out of place.
Absolutely delighted to have been part of this, and it was only a small diversion on my trip home from Crewe.
I'm not a bike guy - never really have been although I have a license and used to toodle around on an AR125 when I was a kid - but I can confirm that Tony's Thruxton is an organ-rearranging, knicker-wetting, thumping monstrosity. And I like it.

Usually I like louder than normal bikes, but with this one, it sets off car alarms even when it's quiet lol, not due to the noise but as Chris says, the thumping pressure that comes out the tailpipe lol it's flippin great
Nothing is better than that bass. Rattling door panels in multi-story car parks and setting off an alarm or two.
I never commuted to work in Wildcat, but Tiger would do it when I was at Barclaycard. Used to make me grin even though I was being an anti-social prat.

Triumph really have got this breed of bikes right, as theres so much that can be done to them, either with bolt on goodies or making stuff up as you go along lol, and both camps WORK 
If you havenāt seen todays Phillips Island Moto GP, then watch it. What a race, well worth getting up at 3.45 for.
Next project is to paint this little lot and the tank once i've finished repairing it
So a lot of prep work has been carried out.....
Followed by lots of priming.....
And then a light flatting back followed by the green and 3 coats of lacquer
Should get tank done tomorrow, then it's wait for decals and 2k lacquer to arrive
