It's harder to know it exists, but you can't find it/have it! I sold a Velocette Viper in 1980 and all I know is it's off the road and in West Bromwich which is where I delivered it. Then my dad (long past) sold his Triumph GT6 in 1976 and it's still around. I actually saw that being driven out of a car show about 20 years ago, but too far away to run after.

Good luck tracking it down

If you really, really want to know about the GT6 send me the reg and I'll ask the relevant person in the TSSC (I've got a Vitesse). He may have some records.

I once saw my A65, it had been changed from a Dove Grey frame to black and American export bright orange/ red and white tank to that uglier bigger UK style tank. And I could not run fast enough after it to speak to the rider. It would be easier to follow either of my Tridents by following the smoke and oil drops.
