I'm loving all the Triumph builds going on, so time to start my next one.
The goal of this bike is have something to rip around on the street, and also on the trails with. Instead of a full on custom (and yet another hardtail), I'm wanting to do a stripped down stocker. I'm going to aim for a 3 year completion time, motor first this time. I learned my lesson on the last one.
I started with this: 1953 Thunderbird motor cases, and barrel, and gearbox and a 1955 frame. Also included an oil tank, a rigid oil tank, and a rear wheel.
Angry Monkey Dan sold me a front end and side mount Bates
Small City Cycles Todd gave me a front wheel for a drawing trade
I collected a few more parts at Clubman's Swap last year
some ebay purchases
mock up
I plan on getting an iron head
My plans are something along these lines. My boy will be 5 years old I'm hoping when it's done, so we will be riding together at the park.
ALL DONATIONS WELCOME!!!
