Hey everyone. Lots of new stuff here. Haven't been working on the Triumph very much since it's kind of completed. But been building a couple of businesses, working constantly, my wife and I had our first kid, just being a typical 30-something year-old guy I guess. I'm sure many of you have been...

Anyone remember me? Anything new? What's happening in the world of Bonneville?

I see this thread is still going strong. Carry on, gents.

Sold. yeaaaaah

Thanks guys. Love hearing feedback and encouragement from you guys. Flaco- Those mufflers were bought years ago on ebay. I suspect you can search on ebay "NOS Honda shorty mufflers" and something similar would come up. Just make sure that you get the NOS "Made in Japan" versions, unless you...

Photoshoot for the CB 350 was completed a while ago and have been waiting for some things to pan out. It's being listed for sale tomorrow (Sunday) and should be gone in a couple weeks to a new owner. Some shots from the shoot.

Good luck on the most recent leg of your journey, dude. Should be fun to see if you get another second bike when you get back to the states, and what that bike might be.

We had about 3 days of very nice weather, somewhere around 55 F. Rode the bike twice! Now it's back in the 20's in the morning and 40's midday. Bitchfest complete.

You see it's funny because I misspelled "mistakes" when saying I never make them... ha.. ah ha.. ha .... crickets.

Nobody liked my hilariously ironic comment?

Hey thanks everyone for the comments, links, and encouragement. The R60 is a '76, so there you go Richie, you know your airheads! : ) Yours looks pretty remarkable and sounds like it had some serious mods performed! What happened to that bike? Sold or still owned? Looks great. D9 (Seth) -...

This is my friend and shop partner in the photo above. To bring it up to date : Weather has warmed up so we got this things ignition working correctly, and took it for a run around the neighborhood. It runs fantastic and we can't wait to dive into it. Never worked on a BMW motorcycle, so it...

So if you're reading this and been following this long thread that's cool! If not, basically I started it a long time ago to chronicle all the learning and fun I was having over time building a motorcycle, the CB450. During this long stretch many things have happened. Mostly all good, but not...

I never make miskates.

If Flaco passes I would like to be next in line please. Thanks my friends.

Well this is just perfection.

So am I right to think you were around 7-12 during WW2? I don't know anyone who was around during that period. I'm sure there are better times to talk about though. Welcome to the forum. Motorcycling is one of the things life is all about, isn't it?

Likewise. Well, I guess the ancient ones are pretty cool. Back when they were actually pretty new and advanced.

Those XR's are the best Harley Davidson, IMO.

Hey Cereal. I'll have some nice shots to post up in a few days! One project complete. But that Triumph you got is awesome. Great score. Like Bonafide said, it looks like it doesn't even need any work man!

I don't dislike my country or anything, I just lament the intellect level of mass-media. I'm sure this isn't anything unique or new. I suspect that in 1895 London there were people complaining of how predictable A Conan Doyle's Sherlock stories were, and how they paled next to Dickens. In any...

I've also spotted some Triumphs on the latest round of T-mobile commercials. It flashes by the screen on two different ads. There really is no other bike with a higher "hip" factor.

I hear you my friend. I often lament American culture, but now it seems that extends to North America as a whole. Here all anyone talks about is football and baseball, child sports. As Ernest Hemingway wrote, "There are only three sports: bull fighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the...

Clicked the link thinking "Okay, let's give it 90 seconds and move on." Ended up staying for the full production. Thanks. What a great story and a well produced video.
