Quite taken by the classic styling, not sure on the drum brakes up front.
Loving the paint scheme

No
Triumph used drums in their hayday on their racing bikes, must be good to some extent. They are unaffected by the wet are'nt they?
Whats the point of having 6 pot stoppies on a 125cc scooter, answer none, so the brakes are suitable for the bike Still prefer the idea of having the power of discs

Whosthedaddy, are you under the impression that this is a new bike? 
It's 35 years old, but in absolutely beautiful condition! 
Nice one! |

The speedo went on it late last year, needle return spring broken.
I noticed that there was a NOS one on US ebay, only trouble is it went for $380 + the guy wanted $65 shipping. 
Two weeks later another one came up, that went for $571 
I ended up buying a really horrible but working one for $19 and managed to make one good one out of the two. 
Brakes not all that good at the moment, very weak at speed but grab like hell at walking pace, I'm going to strip them down tomorrow, they should be good when set-up properly.

Not my taste, but it's impossible to deny it's in cracking condition! Looks mint
