A bit more legroom



Took the SU off to sort out the timing hole plug which was chewed up, while the carb was off I changed the long belmouth (which sits just where my knee should be!) for an SU embossed pancake filter, had a seat to try it for size and theres a bit more legroom now, also looks so much better!

Scout frame headstock ????



I recently bought a frame headstock casting (on ebay) the seller had it listed as a Scout neck, year unknown. This morning I took some comparison pictures with a badly hacked about 741 frame and a Junior Scout frame - not so sure its Indian? Anyone know what its from?

Steve from The Stockers has just got in touch, turns out its a late 50's Triumph frame neck, cheers Steve
