One of a kind triples - some inspiration

[VB-SP3-2005]

Some amazing looking triumphs in this gallery. Love to see some of these ideas trickle down into production parts

Hrm, there's some nice stuff on the first one.

- Vertical headlights have a kind of menacing look to them, which of course fits the S3 perfectly.

- Really nice paintjob, looks like real quality work.

Not a real fan of the underbelly though, I'd be wanting to yank that off. I like the Triumph underbelly, just this this particular custom doesn't need it.

The second bike, while I can really appreciate the quality and effort of the work that went into it, well... it's a little whacky for me.

Maybe someday my bike's pics will be shown like this... one can dream.

Y'know, I've thought about something similar, paint-wise. Follow the natural lines of the tank. That's a sharp lookin' triple.

Agreed R100, that's a real slick look. I've been thinking about how I might eventually paint my tank, and it hadn't struck me to follow the lines. Looking at it now, it makes perfect sense and is really striking.

Wow.... I'm totaly gonna copy the paint and headlights. I espescially like the way the lamps are set up. Might scare those dumb@sses into thinking there's a train comming instead of a motorcycle. Stupid f*cks always think I'm a car REALLY far away. Might also keep em from confusing it with a buell.

That is a shame, hate those Buells. Some plank asked me the other day if my bike was a Beull, I sh!t you not.

Looks like a Buell huh?

love those polished rims on the second one....
