Interesting bit on the later Triumph twins. They never mentioned the eight valve head that was developed in '79, '80? I visited the Triumph factory in Meriden and the Norton factory in Wolverhampton in '75 when I lived in GB.
Was easy to see why the British motorcycle industry was dying. Really old tooling, everything still sand cast...
