Smile One Bonnie, no motor

Son's project starting May 2015:









She now sports a 750cc in lieu of the stock (missing) 650cc motor.
It ran for all of 20 seconds so far... and then needed more parts and a carb rebuild

I'm envious Skip.
Having grown up next door to a guy that rode Triumphs, I've always wondered what this Duc would sound like, ever since I photographed it out at Riverside Raceway.

She does look better with the motor in!
I'm still struggling with positive ground, I have to remind myself over and over...

random pics that YOU have taken.......

Replaced my 22 year old skipping Kenwood CD deck in the truck for a more modern BT/CD. Had the Kenwood installed by a big name electronics shop’s car audio “experts” 22 years ago.

This is what “professional” installation gets you..............HA!



All of the connections looked like that...

My armature radio install on the connections.
