I owned one, and it was no motorcrosser at all. It was a
street bike with a
higher-than-average pipe, heavy, and lots of torque from
the thumper. And
before you start whining about carbs again, mine also had
a Delorto, which I
installed with a custom manifold.

And oh yeah--my metric tools worked fine on it.

I've done complete rebuilds on a '65, '69, and '72 Triumphs
and have never owned any Whitworth tools.

BB is an idiot!

He's an annoying know-it-all. I helped a friend recently with a cobbled
Triumph chopper--replaced the clutch and some other minor parts. Neither of
us own Whitworth tools, but got the job done just fine.
