TRIUMPH GP500

Look what some Bastard sent us...........

Blind Melon from The Lucky Bastards MC sent this over. Snapped at the 2011 Chooper Fest in Ventura, sunny So-Cal earlier (least ways I hope it was earlier, and not in the depth of what passes as a winter over there) this year. A real nice take on the Unit Triumph theme.


There may be the hint of a nod to the old Exile style, but the stance, the proportions and the finish are bang on. The 16 rear and 21 front combo are timeless, and that looks mighty similar to a Cub front hub leading the way.



Thanks Melon, you may not be a Triumph kinda guy, but you'd have to be lacking a pulse not to like this.
