The Black Beast is alive

Finally after having it sitting in my garage for 2 years I have this bike road worthy. No I didn't do any major strip down reso job. Just bits at a time and lots of issues (still have many to sort out) But I rode it about 130km trouble free around the back roads of Alberta. It is ugly and still has a lot of work to go, BUT IT WORKS!!!

2012 Triumph Bonneville SE black

1978 KZ1000 B2 LTD
Fresh top end rebuild
Rebuilt head
Wiseco 1015 pistons
Dyna s
Green Dyna coils
Wired george mod


It is easier to say what I haven't replaced then what I have.

I must love this cruel mistress since she hates me

At least you can ride it around and get inspired while you ponder how you want it to ultimately look. Nothing wrong with that.....
