Peter Crebbin, an esteemed figure in motorcycling history, can be seen astride this magnificent 650 Thunderbird. What sets this particular Triumph apart is its distinct lack of silencers. This intentional modification allowed for the unmistakable roar of the engine to serve as a warning signal for approaching riders and spectators alike. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, one can almost hear the thunderous sound echoing through the air. Noteworthy details captured within this frame include its intact tax disc proudly displayed on its sleek bodywork and a handy tyre pump thoughtfully fitted onto the chainguard.
