$300 triumph

This bike started life as a 2006 Triumph Bonneville and was bought by Jeremy Cupp and LC Fabrications for $300. The bike placed 6th place in the 2009 AMD World Championship Freestyle competition
The combination of leather, copper, steel and funk front end gives the bike a steam punk feel while a modern power plant says these ponies want to run.
Hopefully the Jackshaft-mounted drum rear brake can bring all 865 cc's to a halt in a timely manner because I worry the conical mounted front drum brake doesn't brake much.
The copper leaf lettering compliments the vintage font on the word 'Triumph.' The painted wing nut-gas cap exudes a sense of style.
