Here is a rat rod honda for ya. There is a lot of differences 
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

I hope EVERYONE understood my post was a compliment.  That bike is TOO WELL BUILT, and TIGHT!  Probably should have used an emoticon.

Regardless of opinion on rat bikes vs bobber. Its no rat bike, but yea its a nicely done bobber. I wouldn't have used that bike per-say but its nicely done. I just wanted to point out the difference between that and a rat bike when I posted the pic. I wasn't implying that I like either one better.

that headlight is sure pokin' out there... hard tails are nice to look at, i can't imaging riding one. espically the PBR special. one bump and you are a member of zpg! (zero population growth)
If it isn't broke, I haven't messed with it.

That goes beyond a rat bike to becoming a hunk of junk.

I like checking out pig bikes like that in person. Makes you wonder about their owners. I saw one in Maggie Valley that had a small still integrated. You'd never see it unless you followed the copper. Operable, using the rear header as the heat source according to the owner. This is the first Triumph I've seen. And I've never seen one with any type of security system, alarm or chain. I wonder why...

Thanks for the pictures. My youngest brother owns a new Tiger and a 04 T-100, but has an old VLX600 that he has been thinking of bobbing. This photo will definitly get him off the start mark. 
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
