Description
Here is an amazing Dresda Triton based on a 1955 Norton WIdeline with a 1955 Triumph pre-unit engine. Built many years ago by Dave Degens of Dresda Motorcycles and has only recently finished a full rebuild by Dave and Dresda. Now bearing Dave Degens' signature making it one of very few 'signature series bikes which Dave is particularly happy with. This bike has the best of everything including the Word Famous Dresda 8 leading shoe front brake which Dave developed for the Barcelona 24 hours. Now incredibly rare this brake not only looks great but actually is a pleasure to use being very linear in it's effectiveness.
Correctly registered as a 1955 Dresda Triton.
The engine has only recently been rebuilt and features a 750cc kit, electronic ignition and 5 speed gearbox with belt primary drive. Full rewire, new alloy wheels with stainless spokes and new tyres. Motogadget tachometer/ speedo which allows for multiple readings in a single gauge. Huge history file.
The frame and mudguards have been stove enamelled and all the bike presents with tons of period correct engine turning. Alloy oil and petrol tank and mudguards.
Starts and runs beautifully and handles like you would expect from a featherbed - wonderful and light. This bike even has custom made Maxton rear damper units capitalising on the featherbed geometry as well as the Dresda front fork. Happy to provide more details, pictures or have a chat. Dresda couldn't build one in this spec for what I am asking and you would be waiting 2+ years.
If you are after a no excuses Triton that goes as good as it looks then look no further.
