COFFEE!!

Phoenix

The old front end just stopped working for me.

Mike, at Old-STF in Yuba City hooked me up with this...

He also hooked me up with a clean front head to replace the broken exhaust port. Thanks, Mike!

Out with the old, in with the new

Bought a new Sparx power unit to replace the MityMax, and a Pazon ignition from Troop at British Cycles Ltd. in Grass Valley, CA. It's installed on the Triumph and I need a day without rain to give it a road test.
Fingers crossed.

Subtle differences

A little closer to the seat
 
A little closer to the forks

Which looks Better?

Up next

The front cylinder needs to be welded back together. This is probably the biggest deal in the rebuild, because without an engine it's just a coaster.
