Hey everyone,
Im Zach
I bought my first Triumph a few months ago its a 1968 Bonneville T120R 650cc, I always wanted one. Love the race history and styling of them.
This bike came from an estate sale where it sat in some guys basement for like 20 years. It was freshened up right before the original owner stopped riding it and put it away. The guy had a tasteful eye because for a mostly stock bike it has a good stance and style. But anyhow I own it now, I rode it around for a couple months before it got cold and here we are at the start of me turning it into a bike that I really want to build.
My theme is a early 60s Watson styled rigid bike, flashy paint, chrome, valanced wheels, short front end and tight ass end, clean lines and some race vibe.
I would like to thank Chopcult for these forums and Lucas from The Factory Metal Works for donating a hardtail for me to get started! Every bit helps, and I have already been shooting TFMW parts orders so I can really get moving on this thing!
Ill start with some pics of the bike how I bought it.
Here it is after one of my first rides in the back roads of good old Lancaster County, PA
Cheers
