1957 & 1967 Triumph 650 cc TR6Cs. I bought the 1967 new in 67. I like two wheels.
It even has Schwinn parts on it. To see a slideshow of the builds check out my thread in this section titled three wheeler to two wheeler conversions.
I used a kickstand from a ‘70’s Schwinn road bike and a chain guard from a 20” girls bike.

Been away from bikes a while now, until I recently scored this year 2000
Suzuki GZ250. When I got her not running, broken clutch cable, rusted
out exhaust, no tail lights or fenders and not a of the purple tank!
How she sits now, got her running nice, lights up, fenders and paint,
just waiting for exhaust parts then rego inspection and on the road.

Had a motorcycle, but the wee beastie tried to kill me. Now my wife won't let it in the yard, and I ain't allowed to play anymore.

Lol sorry, didn't mean to ignore that beaut. Really sweet color combo.
My red '44 Indian "Essential Civilian Use" Chief. Bought from a friend in New Mexico and completely restored. Sold it (big mistake), guy offered me stupid money. So then I bought the Model 741 Military Indian out of eBay. It had wound up in Russia after the war and they REALLY cobbled stuff up to keep it going. After the Iron Curtain fell, some guy went over there and found a barn full of old motorcycles and shipped them all to the U.S. It came to me in 10 boxes. Took me a couple of years to get the parts and as you can see, I "civilianized " it. The military parts just too hard to find. Wound up selling it too. Guy in England now owns it.
