| Few pics of my winter projects
Kingcobras post made me think I should post some pics of my winter project. It is a 1973 triumph t100c. I am building it in to an early 70's style drag bike. The first step was to build an equal length header to bolt the turbo. Then I built some clip on bars. And then built the custom intake to bolt on the Bendix carb. |

| That's some sweet schit right there Bastard. Looks like you have a creative mind and some awesome fabricating skills brother. Keep us posted. Dig those old school motos, my pa had a triumph he used to ride around the yard with the little stewie hanging on for dear life, loved every minute of it. |

I like these, good work. I prefer the Bobber look on a triumph, especially on the older ones with their "backward" controls. |

A little up date on my land speed triumph. I got a little bit more done over the last few weeks. I got the tank mounted , built a custom oil bag , built a tank to hold water for my water injection , Built a brether box for the crankcase and the oil bag , built some mid pegs and brake pedal and shifter , mounted the fender today after work (I will get pics of that tomorrow). I am looking good to get this thing done by spring. I hope to have the new motor built for it by mid summer so I can take it out to bonnievle and get some test time on it before speed week. The record for the class is 127 mph I hope to get close to that but we will see.

That's pimp. Almost as pimp as the old Ford in the background. |

Few more pics. I rolled it out in the sun to get a good look at it. I think it is coming along very well. I also got the seat mocked up yesterday.

Wow...Your fab work is stunning. I just have one question about that motor though, does it leak oil yet? |

But I don't plan on running this motor very long. I don't have any idea of how many miles are on it or what parts are in it. So this motor will just be ran to get the bugs out of the chassis. Then I am going to be building an all out race motor. With a billet crank, carillo rod ,custom set of pistons ,titanium valves ,bigger cams ,o-ringed head. then hopefully it will take 20-25 pounds of boost | |

I'd ride it! I ain't skeered! Looks kick a$$ Aaron, I guess I need to come around the shop a little more often... Dodge still looks the same though. Aaron, I should bring my old neighbor over he is a triumph and old Norton JUNKIE! He keeps trying to get me to ride his Norton chopper with everything backward (shifter, brakes) I keep telling him some other time! Last edited by racerx; 01-31-2008 at 09:21 AM. |
