HI
I have now discovered that the E in 3SE means Economy & they have used a pressed metal side cover & no tank panel to save on costs & produce a cheaper bike.

Cheers

Hi
Thanks for replying Ill give those places a go & see if I can find the bits I need or if they can make them.
I have found some seller in India on Ebay (Royal Spares) that sells some bits for the Triumph 3HW which will apparently fit the 3SW which should fit mine  :)
I first saw this bike about 25 yrs ago in the back corner of a business that specialised in old car parts but couldn't afford to buy it so My brother in law ended up buying it for $400.00 & it then sat in his shed until one-day He needed some money & he asked if I wanted to buy it ($400.00) so I did & now its been sitting in My shed for about 13yrs waiting to be restored & now My son who is 15yrs old wants to help Me restore it so it looks like its finally going to happen  ;)

Cheers

Hi Everyone
New to this site & found it whilst searching the net for info on a bike I have that Me & my Son want to restore.
I know its a Triumph 350cc Sidevalve model 3SE of about 1937 vintage.
I also believe the 3SE (S= Side-valve & E= Economy) is basically the same bike as the 3SW ( S=Side-valve & W=War) & the frame & bits and pieces of the 3HW will fit as well.
I would appreciate any info you may have on them & any hints on finding a few missing parts for it.

Cheers
