I like it. The bling colors toned down a bit and with a much smaller tail it could have potential. I wonder if the Marchesinis are Triumph items or Duc wheels with adapters?

Gary, Jake on the other board just machined a spacer for fitting a Ducati wheel on a Triple. He might be able to help you out with the dimensions: http://www.thespeedtriple.....hp?topic=8591.0

I like the concept, just think the colour matched accessories push it over the edge of coolness into the land of the twee.

Yeah .. An all black paint job, and it may have passed as a nice retro bike... But with the red frame , me thinks its just trying to hard

Jeezus.........that's bad "The only bad point is the front brake won't quite bleed properly.It works fine but the lever almost touches the bars.Simple job to fix." So simple he couldn't do it before the sale?

Yes...it's f**king 'orrible but somewhere in there lurks a decent bike. Just imagine it with a set of clip-ons and a single light bikini fairing and a single seat. Get it re-sprayed and turn it into a cafe racer ....in which case I'd pay £500 quid for it tops.

Some folk have the misguided notion that what they've created is pretty but there's no need to kick 'em in the bollocks.
