Wild Pre-unit!


This triumph is pretty wild with what appears to be a mold pipe shape on the tank, unique half-moon seat, and minature fish tail tips. It kind of reminds me of the "Enchanted Parrot" posted earlier, though that bike was a swingarm. (1968 Cycle Guide)

Show Bonneville


Its too bad the picture isn't any clear but this Pre-unit Bonne in an original rigid frame looks the part. Those pipes are super long. Notice the peanut tank off to the side. (1968 Cycle Guide)

The "Face Man"








Talk about a crazy mold job! I only wish we had a color photo! This tank is a work of art! What a Face? That front end set-up is king as well!(article from a 1968 Cycle Guide!)

Designing the Sissy!



High bars and high sissy!


The droopy loopy!


Check out that WILD pre-unit on the left! Wow, and Tom Fugle's cocktail shakers on the right!


Oh look, thats the Oink Chopper there on the upper right!


The Poseidon, King Neptune fork, or the Griffin radiator jammer!


I can't say I've seen the Ghost before going down the highway! (all pictures posted on Manxtt's Ebay listing, very cool book!)

Injun Snow Plow


I saw this picture up on Ebay a couple of weeks ago with the Indian Scout set-up for snowplow duty. The plow sure looks sketchy but the bike is amazingly cool!

Post - Nov 20, 1965


There's a pretty good article in this magazine about the Cycle Gangs and a few good pictures as well.

Cool Wassell / Hap Jones Peanut Tank & Mount


I'm trying to figure out if this tank strip hovers above the tank like shown or if the peanut gets pushed up so its flush with the strip. Either way, this is a pretty unique idea! (from and early 70s Chopper related Magazine)

Streamlined Triumph Drag Bike


A just thought this was a pretty cool picture of a triumph drag bike, probably that was just started on the rollers. The Harman & Collins and Buco decals on the streamlined nosing are very cool! (photo comes from a 1971 Big Bike Magazine)

Bonneville Bikes


Here's a cool pre-unit with overhead cam conversion!


Nice fuel-run Royal Enfield with a killer full fairing. (Both this picture and the one above come from a 60s Cycle Magazine)
