Beautiful Red / Antique White 2 tone paint

Wheels have been refinished with a matte chrome powder coating

Other misc. Parts have been powder coated to match the wheels.

We fitted a Triumph Bonneville tank it gives it more of a cafe racer look than the OEM BSA Tank.

We kept the OEM Smiths Speedometer and Tachometer on the bike to give it character. The gauges are rare and we just couldnt bring ourselves to use something aftermarket. They work great.

Tue, 24 Mar 2009

There are few motorcycle icons within pop culture that have endured as vividly as that of the late, great Steve McQueen.
