  • Nice XS



    I came across this brat/cafe yesterday so I thought I'd share it as I think its pleasing on the eye. Don't mind seeing our old bikes modified when the finished product looks this good. Don't have any info about it as it was on an Italian cafe racer site and there didn't seem to be any details Not that my Italian vocabulary extends beyond two or three words! I guess if it was built on this side of the pond then it was the UK/european Sport model, prolly the second worse looking eleven model after the Martini in my opinion.
    They may find they've created problems for themselves with those back shockers, but hey not my bike.

    Could this be the finest Triumph Bonneville ever built ?

      They look to be about an inch too long. The angle on the U-joint could cause problems down the line... I DO like the overall looks, though.
