Veteran Triumph from c1908

I'm slightly hesitant to identify this machine as a Triumph but that is what it looks like to me, from around 1908. Perhaps someone can comment or get in touch to confirm or deny the identification. If it is indeed a Triumph it is a mildly customised one, it looks like the pedal cranks have been removed and the petrol tank has had a different paint job.

    There's a photo of the 1908 Triumph here that looks very close!

      Thanks David. There's some good detail on that image. I'd say they are the same bikes.

    I'd say it's a 06 or 07 Triumph as 08 had a lower tank

      Thanks for that. I'm a bit shaky on my early Triumphs so good to have some input.
