YEAH?! Is that RIGHT, erle?!

Well then, please explain this picture of THIS "Hipster's" Triumph then, if ya would!!!



(...hey, don't blame ME...YOU brought up Mr.Zimmerman here, dude!!!)

Though you DO have a point here, as by the early '70s the gaiter look HAD become somewhat passé, and by '71 all Triumphs and BSAs came without 'em, and with the "Ceriani look" becoming very popular. Though of course, that was ALSO the time when many people thought the Trumpets and Beezers started getting away from their classic Britbike look, ya know.




THAT picture was taken when he JUST bought the bike.

There's ANOTHER pic.of him on the bike sans the gaiters, and with a beautiful woman on back. (Joan Baez?)

(I think removing the gaiters landed the woman)
