    Been out riding for the last week. The weather has been above freezing so when I get home from work, I go for short rides. Today was 57 degrees, so I took thr Triumph out. Shot these pics last week in true B&W film and just got em back today. The bike photographs pretty well..

    so it's 35 mm, and you scanned it?

    or is it digital?

    is that an original lucas horn on the bike? how much did that set you back?

    Those pics were taken with a medium format (6x7). They are scans from the 4x5" proofs. The actual prints look better. The horn...? I have no idea if its an original Lucas. It works, so it must NOT be (ha ha ha..)

    Rock.

    That second pic of the front profile at an angle.

    Tell ya what....I'll be limited on the file size.
    Post it here if possible and then post the link in this thread if you don't mind man. That's awesome. I was almost over my trumpet fascination until I decided to pay more attention to this board.

    Not the same bike I was selling. This is what I basically traded the other pile of parts for.

    As far as the front end..I don't know who makes/made it.. Its kinda like an old Harley springer, but not an exact copy. I'll look for a stamping later today.
