I was at Castle Coombe as a Marshal in 1967 68 69 and 70, and saw Percy on his Works Daytona 500. And then about 1969 on the Works Trident, where He left everyone in the dust and lapped at about 93mph.
I have a fair few close up photos of the details of the T100 and its resemblance to a standard machine pretty much stops beyond the outer, more visible cases. Met him a couple of times and attended talks he gave the owners club, that bike had to be designed and built without Turners knowledge or approval. Too often I've thought I was born in the wrong era ;) So I only have books and pictures to refer to.
Wonderful to see someone keeping this magic alive . I wish you all the best,God bless your spirit and innovation.
How dare someone dislike this!
Volume 100% I want that Norton show me the northern

lovely machinery, both bike and milling machine.
Hmm now that's got me thinking - how much would it take to get the Percy Tait T100 into production
