Holes in the swingarm bracing seems a bit pointless

Its got a Triumph lump but otherwise, zero reason you'd call it a Thruxton?
Can't quite see what's going on with those front forks, RWU + springs at the top?
Agree with the big cheese regarding the swingarm

Not sure why, but bellypans without at least a smidgeon of bodywork joining them to upper fairing always looks "wrong" to me.

It still surprises me that people with such obvious talent come up with something like this :thumbdown:
I think the springs at the top of the forks is a homage to those old Brit twins,they'll be doing inboard disc brakes finished to look like drum brakes next...
No idea what's going on with that bellypan it looks like the prow of a ship,nice paintwork.

It has a certain 'eager' look about it. The tyres look like they came off a 1950s combination outfit and the swing arm looks like Meccano but if it's the sort of thing that floats yer boat, it's quite nice.

Beautifully finished, but essentially pointless. And that stupid Meccano swingarm...

They don't seem to be attached to anything, just slid over the stanchion.

It's very pretty and I'd not refuse a run on it,but I'm not a potential owner.

If it's based on a Thruxton why has it got Thunderbird on the back end?

Maybe Scott Tracey is the owner?
