Adrian Dwyer Posted March 27 Posted March 27 Morning all. Does anyone have any additional images of this monster? In particular, how was the armour stowed when not acting as 'cover from fire'? All the best. A Quote
welbike Posted March 27 Posted March 27 (edited) Adrian, yes, have the series, and someone even made a replica! It was more like for airfield defense and such, not to cover huge distances. The bike is a Triumph 3 SW. (or 5SW) Cheers, Lex Edited March 27 by welbike additional info 3 Quote

Adrian Dwyer Posted March 27 Author Posted March 27 And I though kick starting the elastico 3HW was a challenge! Thanks for the additional images. A 1 Quote
Ron Posted March 27 Posted March 27 (edited) The replica armoured 3SW was built by Sean Walsh. He brought it to our Goodwood revival motorcycle field workshop display one year. I literally couldn't lift it off its side stand. But I have got a knackered right elbow. 🥴 Sean said he did actually ride it once in the quiet road where he lives. Ron Edited March 27 by Ron 1 Quote

I guess this is the two-wheel version of the Beaverette: a needs must development. I wonder in what manner the builder of the replica notified his insurer of the modifications? Quote
Ron Posted March 27 Posted March 27 I don't suppose he bothered? He's not going to ride it and it's too heavy to steal without a Hiab. Ron 1 2 Quote
