Geoff Dodkin outside his shop in 1976 with a brand
new Thruxton Venom. It was ordered by a wealthy German business man and apart from the gearbox shell was built from new spares. It was upgraded to 12v and fitted with indecators, plus a 1 3/16in Amal Concentric replaced the traditional GP instrument. Priice at the time was a staggering £1350.00, some £950.00 more that when when the Thruxton was on sale from the factory.
