Re: RED BARON Triumph Bonneville
I like it, the style of it anyway, but I'd feel a twat pulling up on it at the local bike meet anywhere in the UK - well unless I was meeting a load of blokes with man-buns somewhere in Shoreditch.
If it was a genuine bike knocked up by teenagers on a farm somewhere because they were skint then brilliant, but this - "The photo shoot was made with the bike dirty as hell on propose" is just trying way too hard.

What FFS is that about?

If you read it, it's a modified RD400 tank... so they've not painted it like that, just used that tank

WTF would you do that for, they're an arse of a tank to get off and on and they're prone to rot.

The story of this bike is:
All my past was with dirt bikes. I had several ones. Now in the latest years, after I had some “cafe racer” kind bikes, I thought that what gives me pleasure was to ride on tracks, sand and off-road. So I adapt a bonnie I had to became softer and light to ride on this kind of tracks.
I did not put the bike like our usual projects, for 3 reasons. One is because I can fell as many times has I want, without being worried about damaging something. The other is because I always wanted to have a bike with this look! And finally because it´s was made with old parts that I had in stock. It´s a war machine!

At least he's not pretentious.
It'd look better with a bigger tank, and XS tanks are pretty much worthless.
