Interesting 1976

This is, I think, a love it or hate it kind of bike - I move toward the latter.

Looks as though the guy had a bunch of stuff laying around and put it on the motorcycle.

doesn't work for me either.

What he seems to have done is layer a bunch of cruiser bits on a poor old Bonnie....

I like it, I don't think the paint looks that great but, I like it.
I don't know what he is talking about calling it a 700 because
1976 Bonnies were all 750.

That bike is the end result of an poor decision process...

I'm gonna have to go with bvb on this one. That is one good awful bike. I love choppers. I have one. But this bike just makes me cringe. Looks like a Triumph and a FLX had sex then birthed a mutilated monster. I dont like to hate on other peoples work but it doesnt look like any real thought about the lines, height, or over all ascetic chemistry went into this monster. Part it out. Save the good stuff. Part out the cruiser pieces and begin again. Good luck though.

If you want a sportster, buy one. Leave vintage Triumphs alone.

Amen to that. May I bring up the recent photo of the hideous yellow chopped Norton? Shudder......

hd parts don't belong on a Trumf. That is fugly.
