MAS Pipes

Couple of pipes by MAS. Not to bad looking and averagely priced. A low Euro always helps 750 Euro = £644

Mass 2in1 High Exhaust System

McQueen Exhaust System

Monkees

I'm looking forward to this build as Wrench Monkees do a Bonne, This should be worth keeping an eye on, as these guys do some great work.

'Cedrich from HOOK MOTORS in Italy sent this almost new Triumph Bonneville.We will give it a Monkee treatment, and send it back'.

Something completely different

Not exactly new news, but I've been busy this last 18 months, so its new to me....

LC Fabrications TT Delux
Yes it is a Hinkley twin....

I suppose this bike started about a year ago when I saw one of the scramblers on eBay. There was just something that drew me to that bike like a cop to a doughnut. I called a buddy of mine who has a salvage business (I do his paint) and told him to be on the look out for a new Triumph, I didn't care what just something affordable. About two weeks later he called and said he found an '06 Bonneville black on an auction that had smoke damage. We wound up winning it for $300.00!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Time to get blogging again with a mix of what I and others will be doing to our Hinkley Bonnevilles, as well as what ever else takes my fancy in the automotive world. If you have any projects planned drop me a line as I would love to show them here.

Im planning on getting custom headers made rather that buying expensive aftermarket pipes, as well as getting them ceramic coated. Also planning on getting the frame powder-coated as the paint just cant stand up to the harsh winter.
