Having owned a bunch of Triumphs over the years, nothing they did surprises
me (at least not for long!). The TR250 explanation about the starter gear
engaging rearwards makes sense, I guess they never thought to switch it over
with the 6. My first car was a '71 Tr-6 I bought in 1976. The starter would
"slip" every so often, I thought it was due to a missing tooth. Now I know
it was the reversed gear.
Oh well.
