The one in the MCN pic looks like it's been made into a dragster, probably the only thing you would be able to use it for.

The black one isn't too bad but why the white star, is this the custom builders own logo ? Looks out of place, if I owned it I would put the Triumph badge back on.

Ride on !

Radical Rocket III, Still Rideable

I'm sure most, if not all, have seen this custom Rocket III by now. But, just in case you haven't, here's the link to what I think a custom Rocket III should look like and still be ridden to perform: http://www.t5net.de/specials/palatin...ocket_3_28.jpg

The blue chopper Rocket was at Laguna this year. Very high level of craftsmanship and nice to see an example of chopper art with out a S&S v-twin in it though the chopper theme is getting quite tiresome.



Nice detail in the paint Though.

Like most of the new fat tire choppers they all look like a Arlen Ness abortion.
