    Not much caught my eye today, but this NSR150 looked good as did Greyimport's Triumph behind it.

    Thought that chopper looked familiar :)

    Yea pretty poor number of bikes .... certainly no shortage of 4 wheels though

    And on having a close look at your Trumpy you have done an amazing job on it since the first time I saw it. A real credit to you. :thumb_ups:

    I think the 675 Daytona is one of the nicest looking bikes around; deserves to be there.

    I'm guessing that NSR150 Joey Dunlop tribute bike belongs to Sean and it might be the bike @Murdo worked on.

    Thanks. Did you also notice the valve cover on the white Cortina outside? Another one I had my fingers in.

    Pleased I don't do those sort of rebuilds anymore.

    Good Job @Murdo

    Pass on my congrats to Sean. Bike looks amazing. Is he going to keep this one?

    Sean won the best competition trophy, and says he is going to keep this one but he is Irish. That little yellow sticker on the left side of the windscreen was given to Sean when last in Ireland by the widow of Joey Dunlop (who runs a pub) when he showed her a picture of the bike. Think he got a free pint too.
