Beautiful machine. The "Triton" script on the tank is perfect.

Nice. I juuust missed a similar project last week - someone posted a Commando frame on Craigslist with everything except the engine. I quickly priced Bonnie engines and called the guy - it was already gone.

Ok that's my dream bike, and I don't even ride any more.
A buddy in high school rode a bonniville, while most were on Hondas, yamis, or Kawasaki.
Ive loved them since. Even tho it almost launched me over the handlebars while kick starting it.

Your machine there is the very image of the prefect British motorcycle.
So sweet!

Cheers Richard

Not to take anything away from the OPs masterpiece but for those of you seeking the perfect British bike experience check out the new generation of Triumphs. I ride a 2008 Bonneville and I love it. No leaks. No Tickling carbs (ask your grandad) nothing falls off. Not fast by any definition but sweet on quiet roads. If you want a new cafe check out the Thruxton
