Isuzu seems to be a ripe source for Triumph bits. Peyote's rack is from an
Isuzu wagon, and the mounts for the radius rods are Isuzu steering links.
Bu the way, I'm back from Maui--trying to play with all my toys at once.
Went for a ride in the 360 and on most of my motorcycles. Beautiful spring
day. The weather here in Oregon is actually better than it was in Maui.
I've got to get my Norton back together--it's a perfect day for riding that
bike.

Subject: [FOT] ISUZU Starters for our Triumphs
Yup, Mr. Woehrle, they can be as low as $65 with exchange.
In some applications, some minor mounting plate machining may be needed.
At least that is what I heard from a GT6 guy. His cost was about $35 for
removing some material.
I found this out after I bought a different one. I was going to buy an Isuzu
starter to prove it out and then report on it. I still plan to do this for
my next project.
79 Isuzu II ?
Thanks for sharing this information.
