British Bikes / Re: I'm writing a book and I need info

Triumphador:  You say "There aren't too many books on Triumph?"
I have over 40 of them on my book shelf, and there are probably several more which I do not have.  
I do not see what you can add that has not already been written.  
Also, if you are looking for photos of "restored" Triumphs, please do your readers a favor and have the photos checked by a Triumph expert to be sure the bikes are ACCURATE restorations.

British Bikes / Re: photo's needed of your British bike for book

What is your intention in writing this book (other than making money, that is?)
Too many books on motorcycles have been printed containing photos of inaccurate "restorations" because authors have not had knowledge of what is authentic on those bikes, or have been in too much of a hurry to get published to bother checking for accuracy.  
I suggest that you have the photos of all bikes submitted to you inspected by knowledgeable persons in the one-make vintage motorcycle clubs before including these bikes in your book.  There ia enough mis-information on the market already.  Do not add to it.
