I think this forum needs a picture thread to show off the Hinkley Triple Classics.
Lemme see pics of your Tbirds, TBS's, Legends, and Adventurers!

pcn:

Even better - post up some before and after pics showing your bike modded to your liking.
We already have a "common problems" sticky thread, so let's make another that celebrates these bikes with pics.

I'll start with my 01 Tbird. This is the day I picked her up from the dealership in May 02:



And here's my Tbird last year about to leave on a weekend overnighter. Since new I've added the center stand, Plexifairing 3 screen, luggage rack with sissy bar, and motolights. This has turned my bird into a fairly capable tourer.



And a current pic since lowering the handlebars....



So what have you done with YOUR bike? Let's see those Triple Classic pics, RATs!

pcn:

I'm keeping it pretty simple- just flatter, wider bars and a leather covered TBS seat for now.

Here it is new, solo seat and fly screen with saddle bags.





And then with a new wind screen.




And in bits in my kitchen for a good service and cleaning.
Also changed the chain and sprockets.




And now with the fly screen reinstalled, an aluminum luggage rack on the back, and the side chain cover modified for easy access to the sprocket.
