Title: Terrot
Post by: Jean-luc on November 10, 2013, 01:46:10 PM

Just for the fun and to put some pictures on the forum !

350 HSS from 1928

(http://www.photoservice.com/volumeLR/phs_volume20131030/76584448_57928755/m_314746177_0.jpg)

I will restaure mechanical parts (engine gear box, ..) but I will keep it in this condition.

350 HSSG-R from 1935 (fully restaured)

350 B4TL from 1954

(http://www.photoservice.com/volumeLR/phs_volume20131030/76584448_57928755/m_314746169_0.jpg)

500 RGAS from 1948

(http://www.photoservice.com/volumeLR/phs_volume20131030/76584448_57928755/m_314835189_0.jpg)

with DTP side car (not yet finished)

And the one I'm restauring at the moment: 500 RSS from 1934

(http://www.photoservice.com/volumeLR/phs_volume20131030/76584448_57928755/m_314746161_0.jpg)

The result should be something like that (in 2 or 3 years ....) :

Very nice collection there. This is a Terrot in the National Motorcycle museum at Nabiac, NSW Australia.

Hi Jean-Luc,

Very beautiful bikes, wow.  Did you restore them?  Impressive collection!  Inspiring.

Thanks for posting those pictures; it gives us novices something to strive for :)

Some update ....

Blue RSS is still not yet finished.
I had to stop during 4 years ... I'm just restarting now .....

In between I found a 1931 500 NSSL (J.A.P. KOZ/H dry sump engine) and it's almost finished.
3 years to restore it ...
Still have some "oil problem" to fix.

And the last one I found in Germany 1931 500 CSS1 Magnat Debon (same frame than the NSSL but Blackburne engine)
Today, this is the only one known, so I'm quite happy even if I've already spent one year searching for parts ....
But little by little ......

Very nice Jean-Luc, although in my  ros-bif opinion they lost their sense of style after 1945.

first pic is what we'd call oily rag condition, as in  dans son jus to you, and  indeed its a very nice bike to have.
