    and here's the Beer Bike - another we did for a customer that we had in the same show. Evo engine, shovel ******. We sanded the frame and sheetmetal, and powdercoated it with a matte clear. Charlie the One Armed Bandit handled the striping...

    I'm not a big fan of big white walls on bikes , but everything else is pretty ****ing cool . I like how it sits .
     
  9. Hey it was good to meet you guys on Sunday.
    I really dig what you guys do and, to be honest, it was sort of the only reason I went to that show.

    If its ok I may pick your brain at some point about mine.....

    What intake were you lookin for again?

    awesome job, i love your triumph bobbers/choppers you guys do.


    wish there was as much popularity of it in florida.

    who specifically makes your seats? the quality of work is top notch and must scare the **** out of the guys charging thousands of dollars for one of those...

  14. Looks good. Not too fond of the whitewall on the front, but everything else is slick. I really dig those pipes.

    Definitely, My thing is the frame i have is not a rigid. can you switch the motor out to a rigid or do you have to do something with the existing frame. i love the bikes; don't know what i'm doin' just yet!

    You should be able to bolt on a rigid tail section in no time . I think " truth " could hook you up no problem . . . something like this . It is pretty much common tactics with a triumph .

    Bolt on rigid rear section is how most do it. There are a few companies that make whole rigid frames for Trumps a well. Your '70 isn't an Oil In Frame (OIF) so its a go if you want to do that. Plus, should you decide to return to stock, you can with a bolt-on rigid. The rest is just a matter of taking things away from the stock bike. More of what is taken than added to a nice, clean Triumph bobber. Besides, when you lose that tail section in favor of the hard tail, you'll need to lose that flat, uncomfortable seat in exchange for a single pillion seat....

    Oh yeah, lest I forget...Nice bikes Truth!

    thanks fellas... glad ya dig it.

    the customer wanted the wide whites in the front and back... I think that regular blackwalls would've looked killer on this one.

    Kart - yes, Im definitely coming!

    travez, we can get hardtails for you if you need one (like the one mike posted a flick of)

    snorton - my friend Jay makes the seats. If you want something, let me know and I'll get you two in touch.

    thx - sent you a reply

    richie - great meeting you, too. I'm looking for a 8ba 2 deuce intake... i'll need carbs, too

    terror... 300? There was a 360 WIDE TIRE back 4 bikes away from us!!!!!!

    flash - let me know if you start something...

    I know how that is , I am a tattooer and I can't tell you how many times I will get a nice tattoo almost done and the customer will try to add something crazy or inconsistent with the design . . . what can you do ! Make them happy and take their money :D
