Most comments seem to follow "Not my cup of Tea".
One must understand that, as stated earlier, The bike changes weekly.
The bike, "Bonny", suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder, among other things.
As is now.
Both fenders, Solo seat w P-pad/backrest, pegs. And I still get wet in the rain. I thought about putting the roof & windshield on, but figured that without the doors, I'd probably STILL get wet in the rain.
Same condition as above, only shot from rear.
Both fenders, Solo seat w/chrome seat guard,
Same as above, but shot from rear.
Rear fender only, Solo seat w/chrome seat guard,
Rear only, Solo seat w P-pad/backrest, pegs.
Both fenders, Gunfighter seat, pegs.
Same as above, but shot from rear.
Rear fender, Gunfighter seat.
Close up of rear fender. I'm no body/paint man, so I didn't know what to do about indentation left when I removed the stock tag mount/light/turnsignal monstrosity. Brass insert & Triumph plate was only think that came to mind.
And finally, back to our favorite personality! Half naked and a little dirty! Stripped lean and mean.
Ya know, all these pic's were taken today. the point (?) of this pictorial was to reinforce the statement I made earlier, One should never wear the same T-shirt all the time. Variety is the spice of life. The change that took the longest was changing from the stripped down look to the full fendered, two up one. It took exactly 30 minutes,I promise by the Triumph Gods, and that was with ALL bolts installed and tightened down, road ready. All other changes probably take about 10-15 min. I love to ride, but I also love to tinker with her. Love to have a little different look every time!
Some buy every chrome trinket Triumph sells, and think it's the baddest "custom" out there, and thats ok, really, but I encourage others to find things that would look cool, and find a way to "make it fit". When you do, it's unique, one off, and it's yours! Then, on some days, mix them all up and see what you get. Worried about failure? get over it, it's all about fun, and you shouldn't loose more than a little time. Since Triumph doesn't make a lot of accessories, I get most of my stuff from H.D., thats right, Home Depot. The rest usually comes from Hobby Houses and flee markets.
We, the people dedicated to the protection of schizophrenic psycho motorcycles and their owners, thank you for your indulgence.
