Yeah, stock motor with new top end. It's a 5 speed as well. Runs like a dream and I've got a '73 disc brake front end I'm putting on over the winter. Thousands of little dramas with this one, but worth it.

Buggy - very cool bike - I'd like to see some side by side shots of the new thrux ( when you get repairs done ) and the new (old) thrux. The bike looks great. JCW

Looks great!

Where did you get the graphic for the tank? And how well does it match the stock Thrux graphic? It looks spot on. I want to add it to my Mototwin front fender when I fianlly get around to ordering it.

I got it made by a graphics guy. It's just plain 2" wide 3 block. Not as fancy as the thruxton striping, but I didn't want that, looks too modern for the bonnie. To match up the fender on the thrux you might be able to get the tank strip to fit, but I think it's gonna have the "thruxton 900" across it which won't look too cool.
