Oof, that's a lot of work! I started from a similar place...

That is lovely Duncan, there is something about the look of a Triton that says it all.

Slightly, I have added some of the self expanding exhaust wool around the baffles to make it a little more civilised, but its amazing what tunes you can play on tickover with the advance/retard lever.

Most uncomfortable bloody bikes I've ever ridden!!!!! I even sold the G15CSR I recently built as I couldn't stand the position despite always wanting one!!! The harsh reality is they look the part but for pleasure riding, forget it!!! But maybe my ageing body is the real reason! :(

Sadly they weren't built for comfort, I compare it to sitting on a bar stool where my G11 is more like an armchair. I can still manage to ride the Triton for about an hour, and I get home with a huge smile on my face :beer:
