Bob, what is wrong with you ?
If you have been on this list for more than 5 minutes you would surely know
that Triumphs were never fitted with Possoms. No sir, Triumphs were fitted
with Marmots from day one.
And we all know that 2 possom power is more than equalled by 2 marmot power,
and heck, they even fix your electrical problems at night!
