...and kinda cool!

A 1954 Mustang motorcycle with a 1962 Triumph Bonneville engine:

(...I don't think I've ever seen this kind of combination before)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

I bet that little sucker goes like hell. Probably not much top end though unless the sprocket combo has been taken into effect given the small wheel.

Ya know what's kinda funny here guys is that when I just Wiki-ed "Mustang(motorcycles)", there's another pic of a Mustangs with a Triumph Twin engine right up at the upper right of the page. And so, maybe this wasn't such a rare custom-bult combination after all?!

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
