I have no idea. they were bought about 6 years ago via ebay... triumph knock offs. I actually like the look of "bobbers" with sleeved shocks as much or more then hard tails...

My camera died before I could snap more photos. I just finished a 3 year long resto/customization of a 1975 Norton Commando. I don't have a complete photo but here are a couple.

Every nut and bolt is new and almost all are stainless or polished stainless. I did the wiring all from scratch and the bike is updated with Brembo brakes front and rear. All new high output charging system. The only thing I didn't redo on this bike is the speedo drive and instuments. That will happen this winter since my tach just quit working.

During the build:







Finished but camera died after this only shot:

Thanks. I know I need more pics. We'll get a new camera soon. The seat is a solo seat in polished alloy like the tank. This bike build was a crazy build since this is the very first rebuild I have ever done. The electrical freaked me out but now I can do all that custom wiring no problem. I farmed out the engine rebuild and the wheels but did everything else myself.

I'm starting the build on a Triumph chop next.

awesome Ediie, I love those 350 4s! The guys at the shop have two of them in stock pristine condition, both the same color you have (wondering if that is the only or one of two colors it was offered in?)

Thanks, got it from the second owner who had it since '75 or so, it's in nice shape, slowly cleaning it up.
I believe they only came in 2 colors, Olive and Red.

I plan on building it as a street legal racer, similar to this....
