This Triumph Bonneville is something that really needs to be seen to believed. Custom work throughout makes this machine an exceptional piece of work.

The first job was to fine-tune that incredible springer setup. Shortened around five inches, and braced for extra strength.

Work then continued up top, with a set of custom-bent bars and a faux mechanical brake setup. (The system is still hydraulic, but the master cylinder is cable actuated, and hidden under the fuel tank).

With the front end sorted, attention turned to the rear. A 21-inch wheel had already been installed up front, so a 19-inch was added to the rear to balance things out and give the bike a board tracker vibe.

Fitting the tank and seat meant lopping off and rebuilding the subframe. The bike still wasn’t ‘sitting right.’ So custom length shocks from Ikon to raise the rear end were added.

The board tracker stance was now perfect, and screaming for a radical exhaust to cap things off. So a burly stainless steel system that flows around the engine was fabricated.

The right side ‘carb’ (AKA the fuel injector housing) ended up being in the way, so the ‘float bowl’ was removed. And while the custom builders were at it, they positioned the starter button just above it.

The rear brake master cylinder had to be nudged out the way too; It now sits next to a new, chromed sprocket cover. Delightful touches abound elsewhere—like the beautifully milled mini-switches, vintage levers and velocity stacks.

For the headlight, a Vespa unit was sourced and mounted it off to the left. Motogadget supplied the speedo (housed in the headlight bucket), CAN bus module and a keyless M-lock ignition—hidden under the seat, along with the battery.

All the tweaking and fine-tuning has paid off: the Custom Triumph’s stance is flawless.

Come into the garage today for a test ride of this insane machine.
