Triumph 52 5T 2014-08-03163517_zps437081e0

I bought this a while back. It came in several boxes of bits and has been loosely assembled for the pic.
I'm wanting to swap out the  front end for a set of girders, which I plan to make out of polished 316 stainless. Not sure about the colour scheme yet, maybe white frame and tank , black guards and tank inlay??

I had the same thought for mine so I went with a wassel replica. Looks real skinny and long now.
