Just got this 74 t100c the other day. I know the give away is for a 64-70 hardtail but I'm sure I can make it work with me and my buddy's fab skills

my 68 bsa but it's in a 68 triumph frame and badly needs a new hardtail as the mangled contraption that was on it when i bought it is the true definition of a death trap (this was her when i bought her but she's all apart now and on her way back to ridable)

I could use it, have a 68 Bonneville T120R that was sitting for a good 20 years in some old guys basement, was planning on tearing into it this winter. Going for a simplified 60s Watson style triumph, already have nos MCM fork covers, Italian solo seat and pad, OG wassell tank and fender, 21 front and 19 rear akront shouldered rims!

I had started a build thread a while back but it went on the back burner, family comes first and our daughter was born in early September and well those of you with kids understand. This would be an amazing opportunity and I would be stoked to add this hardtail to my build. My bike is a 1967 Triumph Trophy TR6R. I'll add a photo in a bit when my kids go to sleep

@giantmcgoo is my Instagram but I'm having trouble adding a photo from my phone, I'll try from the computer sometime tomorrow. In the meantime you can see me bumble my way through a tear down in my thread, there are a few photos there.

I throw in on this. I am building a 65 BSA bobber. I bought a basket case that had a hardtail welded on, and it was hacked off. Maybe it's more like a half a basket. I am using a Triumph rear hub laced to a harley 16” wheel (so I will be using Triumph axle plates). Up front, I am using a 30's BSA M20 girder front end with a 19” wheel.

I know from lurking here that it is critical that I get the drop correct so fork trail is positive while the bottom frame rails are parallel to the ground.

I'll have determine the correct stretch and drop so that the engine sits properly (so that frame and cylinder fins are parallel to the ground). When I mock it up I'll pull the necessary dimensions so I know which hardtail I need.


I realize that this giveaway is for a Triumph hardtail, I am hoping that since I need Triumph axle plates, maybe the rest of the hardtail could be BSA.
Thanks,
Tom

Okay guys, this has got to be the most deserving unit 650 Bonneville entry so far!! It's a '65, I've owned it for 36 years, probably abused it for 35 of 'em!! Ripped her down a few months ago and then work got in the way, this comp has given me the kick up the ass to lavish some attention on her and let her grow old in style whether I win or not........







Got a nice extended Harley springer which i want to chop back down to probably 2 under......



Thats about it for the bare basics of it, I know I'm a long way away but I can help with the shipping, i'll even buy some chain tensioners to go with it hahaha

Mockup of bobber girder project

Heres a photo of the girder front loosely mocked to the frame. Still waiting for a proper front axle so I can set the parts in a jig.
