Featured Well It Has A Triumph Engine. Great Looking Custom Bike

I found this on a FB group I belong to and it's honestly the first time I've seen a a custom bike that has me doing all sorts man-maths! I'd have road biased tyres and maybe a front fender of some sort, but anyway, see what you think

 

I think it’s well smart

 

Very tidy and light. Agree on having a front guard, even a shorty Thanks for posting

 

Can we go with 'minimalist'

 

Yep, I like it too. What's the engine from?

 

Meh, details schmetails!

 

Looks like its from a T120V oil in frame , I would prefer the original I had one myself I don't like this gaping hole look

 

What would you add?

 

I like the concept albeit a bit too minimalist, is it road legal though Can’t see any rear light or reg number plate? Or is that not the point??

 

Perfect aesthetics

 

I like it a lot .......

 

Yeah unit Bonnie in oil in frame and i would guess it running an electronic regulator so no need for a battery ...but i agree too gappy for me.

 

This one seems to be dividing opinion down the middle. Which is excellent, because it means we all sit around and talk about bikes even more.

I like the way it carries the engine in free space, almost showcasing it in the frame.

 

How much does it weigh I wonder? 140kg maybe? If that has ~70bhp that's going to be a hoot.

 

No, Auto Fabrica. Some of their stuff is an acquired taste! https://www.autofabrica.com/?fbclid=IwAR1OUyP7JZ7nrZa_ouJljrRNcWL0QnwI45mAhfaETd7XITRE_Kbl9xOtcf0

 

I'm afraid that these sort of cliche boutique motorcycle companies really piss me off just seems to me jumping on the trendy bandwagon...to me it takes very little imagination and skill to take a std bike and remove bits and do a little restyling and call it some kind of unique work of art and charge silly money for it...sorry to me its just what we did back in the 60s and 70s just to be individual now its big business can nobody be creative these days.

Sorry rant over.

 

It’s Autofabrica’s latest release. Their Type 17 if I’m not wrong.

nb I was wrong, it’s the Type 19. Those of you who have been commenting on my Yammie build will have seen them before. I’m taking inspiration from their Type 7b for that build.

 

Ah, I think I've seen the Type 11 before and they sound familiar. I like the cut of their jib.

 

Yep, exactly wot he said!

And proper tyres - so it handled properly.

At that weight it could be a hoot with proper boots and suspension!

The fence is looking pretty empty on this one! I'm very much on the 'yes please' side.

Have a listen to these, which are the Type 7d, e & x they built.
