"...If its good enough for the brits to build Tritons,,, it's good enough for other iconic Marques too !!" Gee, at least the Poms had the good sense to put the best engine into the best handling frame. ::). The old 'Fond of Whores' water pipe quality frame was overpowered by 50hp, what would it be like with 90hp - from exciting 'flexiflyer' to deathtrap?
Nice custom though. If I had a lazy $6000+ I might be tempted just for the stir value 8) ;D

I like it but the Triton used a Norton featherbed ( Manx) chassis that was a major improvement over what was available from other makers, hence Tritons, Tribsa, Vincents, Hondas, Harley and just about anything else you can imagine went into the Norton frame.
To compare sticking a Z engine into spagetti Honda chassis to a Triton is missing the point. Better to stick the Z engine into Norton frame.

Agree totally with Marc!!!! ;)

Somewhere there is a Z with a 754 donk in it. ;D
