Skrev dock en text om motorn och det är ju bra en kväll som denna då inget annat finns att dryfta. Här kommer säljpitchen om än lite förkortad.
The facts known about this engine is that it came to Sweden for over 30 years ago from an american dealer of used motorcycles and parts. I have done some research and have with help from the well known Triumph expert Claudio Sintich got this info.
T100SC H36489 was built on 25th September 1964 and
dispatched to Johnson Motors, Pasadena, USA on 27th September 1964.
This is a 1965 model year machine
and in a large batch of T100SC bikes for America. There are no special interest
notes in the factory record for this bike separately now.
this probably means that your engine was prepared
for racing by Johnson motors.
This engine looks more "works" than Triumphs own
works engines. It has welded inlets and also a welded reinforcement around the
gearbox. It has some kind of surface treatment that are almost black. The double
breathers are rarely seen. The engine is missing some minor parts but will need an major overhaul.
Konkurrenskraftig i klass 5 ?
SvaraRaderaDet skulle nog gå att få ihop en snabb knarr med denna motor, effekt borde finnas men tillförlitligheten vet jag ej om den kommer vara närvarande. Stor fördel är dess låga vikt, med en belt och annan koppling är den säkert tio kilo lättare en exemplevis en cb450 motor.
