Cool bike! The builder, Janne Lindström, used to be a member here back in the day. He's member of "Blotsvens MC" who organize a great bike show in Strängnäs, Sweden every year. IIRC the engine in this build comes from his yellow/black 2003 Speedmaster.

I like the tennis balls to keep from damaging the tank during the build.

Yes, that is smart. I took a bare handlebar end to the kidney from my '66. Ouch!

Now we're talkin'. I've long loved Trump chops but you rarely see one of the new ones. Sweet bike. I'm having a frame built this month for an '04 America motor. Pics will be here once I get her back and start puttin' 'er together.
Enjoy that sweet ride...
'07 Triumph America - 153 mains, 45 pilots, airbox gone, '71 650 chop, '04 America powertrain for chop being built now.

Tennis balls - I had a bad case of that once. Oh, no - That was tennis elbow. Never mind.

That's incredible. I'd like to see a chop like that with a Thunderbird engine.
