Our first Triton cafe build!!  This bike was for a customer in Florida who we already built of our classic bobbers for. He asked us to built a very vintage style Triton and we agreed to do it. We ran into problems  with getting a tank, so we called a guy that we had recently met. Pete Chase form Cafe Cycle in rhode island was able to make the tank by a picture and the frame, that knocked this build out of the park. Then we had One arm bandit come and paint the checker board design and triumph logo all by hand. With a 750 power plant this thing is a total rocketship. We didnt like any of the rear sets so we made our own. This is one of our top 5 favorite builds of all time!!!!
