The non-original paintwork is slightly misleading!

The 2H
had the basic Triumph paint color as on the Speed Twin etc.

This machine was used for three years in trails competition rather successfully in both local and national events, even bettering the Triumph works team on occasion, this was as the works team were using 350cc vertical twins, rather heavy and the twins didn’t do well in the muddy conditions,even qualified and rode in the British Experts.

I should say that I took the girder forks off and replaced them with a pair of Dowty telescopic forks as being supplied for Velocette at that time.
