Been helping with this one a 62' Matchless CS500 that Clint Walker owned. Almost done, been fun to help.

Some decent pictures of mine.

Doug Matson · 12-11-2012, 10:01 AM

Here is my CB 160 and 350 both are originals

bk brkr baker · 12-20-2012, 10:07 PM

My '62 Bonnieville as purchased in the early 80's. Bought by the dad , who painted it Lilac , like the front fender. Inheritted by the son who took the front fender off and painted the bike green.

Buco bags, metallic gold slip cover on the seat , apes , cable wraps., front bumper, seat bar.pure goofyness.
I do like the rear carrier. Restoration has never happened.

I have seen many photos from this museum, but this is the first time that I can recall that you mentioned its name. A little googling and I came up with this http://www.motorcyclepediamuseum.org.
It is on my list of things to do the next time I headed back from New Jersey.
I am torn as to what to do about the '62 Bonnie. It is too ugly to be brought out in the light of day, but it is unique. I'm glad I don't have to decide.

However, those "apes" look painful.

it couldn't be more right. seriously to alter that bike would be a crime. there are enough stock restored Triumphs around. that is one of a kind. genuine period mods are irreplaceable.

Love this bike. The exhaust certainly is, uh, interesting.
