jseal---Yes,it is!I don't know if they're still in business.I was
referring to the "older ones".The last ones,that I saw pictures
of,looked like a "crotch rocket"!I personaly don't like that style!
For my personal bike,I started with a stock Triumph,& would then
chop& customize it.My current bike is a '71 Triumph(Bonne)that I
bought new in Conn.in 1971.I have since put on an 8"extended
front end,Harley rear wheel spoked to a Triumph hub,painted
Imron black with Kelly Green pin striping,extensive engine speed
modifications,& many hand made accessories.You don't find many
hand-made parts anymore,but I have been building this,for many
years!It is old(age-wise)but if I had to ride it to Calif..this afternoon,it would be no problem.On the other hand,I put a 'Hard-
tail"on it & I don't know if I'd make it at my age! Irish
P.S.They used to have East & West coast,factorys(Maryland&California)I don't know if they still do.I am"officially"not
in business anymore!
