I’ll attest to that orvet and j.o. I worked on a few hard hit triumphs and Healy’s and the electrical was definitely a nightmare!orvet wrote: ↑Tue Jan 31, 2023 7:39 amI had a friend that had a Triumph and was going to restore it.

I didn't know how accurate that was until a few years later I went for a ride with a friend in his TR7. Dark Night on a narrow Country Road and the entire electrical system went dead. We coasted to the side of the road and he says that's okay, it'll come back on in a few minutes. Sure enough it did and it only went out one more time on our way back to his house. That we've gone six miles total!
