Parked next to my vintage cycle display last year at Hubberts Bridge vintage day, Raleigh Roma, not too many of these about now, I think Raleigh only did a short run of these scooters, most of them were Italian built and badged as Raleigh

I think I was talking to the owner and admiring that Triumph at my local last week. Did it have old style number plates?

I'll have a look today Phil, there was a couple more bikes I'll get pictures of as well

Standard yellow number plate Phil saw it again today, it's a Triumph Hurricane, I think mainly for the American market with all the flash and raked front forks
