Bob Dylan Triumph Guy?

I'm sure this is an old picture off an album or something, but I just saw it tonight. Is that what he crashed in?

Needs to be converted to a better Brit bike.

Shhhush - i don't want to upset you twice in one day DogT - but Marlon Brando also drove a triumph in that "talky picture" the wild ones :mrgreen:

Ps.
Kenan Wynn & Lee Marvin... both factory riders for.... TRIUMPH!!!
Aaarrrrggghhh!!!!!!!!!!!
Say it aint so Lee.

best part is Lee Marvin (who was pictured on a harley in wild ones) didn't know how to drive a bike when wild ones was filmed - but refused to let Brando (who rode is personal triumph) best him. Lee went on to become triumph rider and made a name for himself on the triumph cub - nice!

I lived in some strange foreign countries until about 1970, so I missed a lot of what was going on then. Never did catch up. Plus I could never afford anything like records, even if I could find them.

Well, let's see, Italy in '46 and Germany right after the big war, then Taiwan, back to Deutchland, and Germany again for my service years. Everyone's got my finger prints, so I can't do anything. At least I had a 'Special Passport' for a few years, but I didn't know what I could do with it then anyhow. Then I turned into a flaming liberal pinko commie dope smoking hippy.
