Sods vs Fockers Part V

Here's an ample selection of details from the bike at the show; all Triumph of course! Starting with the tank badge of my favorite, the green Speed Triple. The mean bug-eyed monster.


Clocks from a newer Bonnie, nice clamp name detail.


Bonneville 'Oil Tank' name and flag. Patriotic or what!


Center tank bolt cover badge. I need one for my tank.


The Lucas Ammeter, the 'Lord of Darkness' reigns supreme! Or so this indicates!


A Tiger and its stripes.


The clean monochrome look on the Trophy touring bike. Sublime.


...and finally the Smiths Chronometric speedo; 120 m.p.h. sir? On a Bonnie in favorable conditions? Nearly! Neverthless a beautiful graphic, used in British 'cycles and sports cars of the period.
