Those look very nice indeed! People around these parts always like to see specials and find out more about them.

Very neat! Thanks for sharing. The Harley Pilion seat reminds me some " Bōsōzoku" bikes.

Lots of polishing right there.
I bet the 3TA owners have a few comments. :smile:

Thank you for the kind comments.

Both bikes get cleaned once a year then just a wipe over every now & again, I don’t use metal polish on the chrome, I use a household spray degreaser, works fantastic & doesn’t wear the plating away, Mothers on the ali & Tesco own brand on the paint.

Year’s ago I had to join the Triumph owns club to be able to get classic bike insurance, after submitting my application & photos of the bike the backlash I got was unbelievable, cancelled the membership once I had the insurance sorted.

What I love is, when I park the bike up & return to it I find a scrum of old blokes around it, I stand back & just listen to them talking about when they used to ride back in the 40’s, 50’s etc & how happy they are to see an old British bike, that’s when I step up & join in the conversation, it’s great listening to their tales & their faces light up when I fire up the engine.

It’s a completely different story with the Ironhead, no one goes anywhere near.
