James Dean's Triumph Back from the Grave
 
Why is he sitting on it like that? You are supposed to sit on the other side of the handlebars. There is this softer area, just behind the roundish metal thing with wet stuff in it. I find that area the most comfortable and generally it's made of vinyl or something, you know the stuff they put on chairs since the 50's.
I've never had much success trying to ride as pictured- in fact no success ever!!
Might explain why he's dead.
I wonder if he drove his car in a similar fashion? I know he was considered cool and a trendsetter and all, but gee whizz I'm glad his cool new style didn't catch on!!!

Interesting.
You'd have to wonder about that quoted value ?
Von Dutch got a hold of it after Jim had owned it - so the color scheme comes later.
Which sort of confuses the issue.

How many of Elvis's harleys are about these days ?!
HOW MUCH are they worth !
