Built by Triton specialist Dave Degans/ Dresda Autos
1962 Slimline Featherbed with a tuned 1953 6T engine
Supplied with spec sheets, invoices and a current V5C
This classic 1960s-style café racer was built by Dresda Autos from 2000 to 2001 with receipts for over £8, 500, not including the donor rolling chassis and engine. The frame is a stove-enamelled 1962 slimline Featherbed with a modified headstock, Dresda box-section swinging arm and Dresda yokes with Triumph forks. Braking is provided by a Grimeca rear hub with a large twin leading-shoe front brake mounted in alloy rims. The bodywork is completed with fibreglass fuel and oil tanks and the bike comes with a top-half fairing not yet fitted. The 6T engine has been heavily modified to race specification, including a Morgo 750 top end, gas-flowed head with bigger valves, balanced crank and a Morgo high-pressure oil pump. The gearbox has a Dresda modification to the main shaft and an alloy clutch basket driving a Tony Hayward belt-drive conversion. Carbs are 32mm Amal 900 Concentrics. All the brackets, engine plates, etc. are Dresda items. Presented in excellent condition, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine Dresda Triton that could cost upwards of £20, 000 to put together today. It has been part of an enthusiast's private collection of 1950s and ’60s classic bikes for the last few years, all stored in a heated garage. Having stood for a while, it may need some recommissioning and comes supplied with various receipts, specification sheet, some old MOTs and a current V5C.
I have a couple of videos of the bike, a walk around video and a video of the bike running.
Perfect for historic racing or just the odd Sunday morning blast or would even make an excellent prop in a shop / showroom / home or business.
