While thumbing through an Orvis Catalog, I spotted a Steve McQueen Triumph 650 Desert Racer REPLICA for a cool $25,000. Who wants one?

Well crap! Photobucket isn't acting right . Anywho, follow the link.


Didn't buy into the hype, you can keep the change.

Jeez for 25 grand you could probably make 2 or 3 desert racers and just paint Steve's name on them. Then you could have several replicas of The "Orvis" replica.

That is a 1966 Triumph Matisse, someone posted pics of the brochure years ago. But, good find.

PS thanks for the Orivs link, I need a new hunting dog collar.
