Supercharged Triumph Pre-Unit


It's Better



Harley Davidson K Model Update

It's been slow progress on my K Model project.  It was originally going to be a KHK but I found a beautiful set of 1953 K cases.  The K cases and KK cases are the same so I will attempt to build a hot rod 45" motor instead.  The same seller had a really nice set of cylinders, one perfect head and a real nice kicker cover and cam cover that he was gracious enough to sell me.

I wacked the rear fender to make it more streamlined and also had the front tubes shaved removing the fender brackets.  It may not be to everyone's tastes but I picture a race bike not a street bike.

The Late Great Mike Hailwood


Triumph TR5R




This is a very rare Triumph TR5R which is basically a road race 500cc bike.  Hot cams, high compression pistons, rearward sets, etc.  Love those pipes !
This an original paint bike that came out of the San Diego area, I've seen it in person and it is flat out cool
