Well I have wanted a Triton for a very long time. But unfortunately I have rather meager motorcycle funds at the moment and even less time. (As I mentioned above, we just had another child last week. A little girl named Islay (Pronounced "Eye-la" for those of you who aren't Scottish) I''ve come across a very cool bike that's a custom featherbed frame (With a 25.5 head degree) and a 1967 Kawasaki W650 motor. The W650 motor is a BSA clone. It's a very good price and a runner. I could eventually, over time should I choose, swap out the Kawasaki motor and drop in a Triumph...(Or a Vincent ---if one falls from the sky and lands in my back yard.) Here is what the motor looks like in the frame.

I am about the pull the trigger tomorrow and buy this bad boy unless the above mentioned Vincent falls from the sky and lands in my backyard.

[QUOTE="Johnnymac, post: 246435, member: 3566"] Well I have wanted a Triton for a very long time. But unfortunately I have rather meager motorcycle funds at the moment and even less time. (As I mentioned above, we just had another child last week. A little girl named Islay (Pronounced "Eye-la" for those of you who aren't Scottish) I''ve come across a very cool bike that's a custom featherbed frame (With a 25.5 head degree) and a 1967 Kawasaki W650 motor. The W650 motor is a BSA clone. It's a very good price and a runner. I could eventually, over time should I choose, swap out the Kawasaki motor and drop in a Triumph...(Or a Vincent ---if one falls from the sky and lands in my back yard.) Here is what the motor looks like in the frame. I am about the pull the trigger tomorrow and buy this bad boy unless the above mentioned Vincent falls from the sky and lands in my backyard.
