This bike has been built and rebuilt too many times to count. I got it as a box of rusty parts when I was 15 years old, and have been working on it since.

I put thousands of KM on this old girl, but these days she spends most of her time resting. Other than a kick once in a while to hear hear rumble.

Right now I'm in the process of bobbing it with a bolt on kit. It will probably always come back to stock, but I have wanted to see it bobbed for 20+ years and didn't want to cut the frame.

This is the 2017 bobber I had when we lived in Switzerland. And my wife's 50th anniversary Vespa.

When we bought these nobody told me I couldn't bring them home to Canada. So when we came home we had to sell them both. I miss that bike every day. But recently got a new-to-me 2018 that I will mod until it looks just like that one.

Just a simple shot of my 2003 chief vintage. This is the wifemobile. When solo I ride the 2018 triumph bobber from my previous post to this community.

There is a little goat trail by the lake we live near. And I knew nobody was around so I got a little naughty and went touring around. Of course, I had to hop off and take some pictures.

But how could I resist? I took the bobber out for a little off-roading down a goat trail that runs by the swamp/lake near our place, and the scenery was so fitting that I hopped off and snapped some pics.

[JUST VENTING - Nobody is actually going to find this or get hurt for having it...]

I hope it was worth your time. That backpack is worthless to you, but it was a collectable to me. And it is very recognizable.

It is a triumph motorcycles backpack that only came with one year of bikes. It was never sold to the public, and is no longer available. But it is still worthless for resale.

All that was in it was a bottle of pepsi and some random USB cables. But you did wreck my day, and my wife's. Since that was the bag that would have allowed me to get some groceries on the way home.

I have given 40 bucks each to a bunch of the folks at the mission with the promise of adding another 100 bucks to the person who finds it. 200 if they have proof they made you bleed.

If you would rather not get jumped by a pile of angry unhoused folks you should bring it back where you found it.

Piece of shit.

[Edit to add: Come on folks. This is obviously a venting post, and nobody is going to bleed over this backpack that has almost certainly already been tossed in a garbage can somewhere.]

Enjoy! Post! Comment!

The name might get this post removed. Which would be sad. But I guess it would also be pretty punk...

Mine is easy. But I won't share in case it comes off as spam since she is my wife :p

Post your pics, mechanical questions, road stories, and anything else motorcycle related. The usual rules apply - Don't be a jerk, don't start fights, and don't share porn. If the community wants more biker pin-up stuff we can make a sister-community for that.
