Girder Forked Triumph Twin





Mark T over at DB has finished his ex sidecar racing pre-unit Trumpet, and it's looking mean and purposeful. Originally it was posted as a '39 but closer inspection doesn't reveal anything that can be pinned down to 1939, but there's no harm in that.
I still can't figure out what's happened to the forks, the extra section in the middle of the lower triangle is intriguing, a brace to strengthen the fork against lateral deflection, maybe?
