This is not a motor bike, but was wondering if anyone knows anything about the Triumphs. I'm falling madly in love with this old lady, I've spent 25 hours so far stripping her down, and the frame is now perfect. The seat is a funky, comfortable old spring type, She's got a drum brake, skinny wheels, and is surprisingly lightweight. The frame is really just slender and sweet. This is basically a local give-away project, here's some before/after pics. This bike sat unchained in a park for at least twelve years, rusting away, until I finally did something about it.
So any cool links , wisdom on Triumph cruisers most welcome.
somebody tossed a bag of dirt in her huge front rack, tire slashed, chain rusted beyond comprehension... (click on images themselves to enlarge)
