Cool Beans Luke, where in the world will you ride it? Is it street legal?

ECSofVirginia · 11-25-2010, 05:40 AM

That's sick man!

I've got a client with a Triumph Trident that wants me to help him do something similar.

Big fan of these "old school" bikes.

Have you run it yet?

barcheta · 11-26-2010, 07:50 AM
