Great find Carl

Loved them all but that Cyclone Board Tracker is my top pick...ofcourse if I had the choice of two I for freeee...I would also take the "Pope" and give it to Rick.

The barber in our town had a Harley Board Tracker way back in the early 60s....unrestored....and not in the best of condition. Too bad I was not smart enough to pay more attention to it back then....and maybe take a pix.

Great site. Thanks.

Can anybody tell me what is going across the rocker boxes on this Triumph. EMS Larry??????
Also I notice it is a cast iron head with twin carbs. I don`t remember seeing that before unless it has been painted.

Defo a painted Triumph splayed head. The piece between the rockers is a bolt on oil gallery, used instead of copper tubing & banjo fittings. I think it was aftermarket "bling" in the 60's together with finned float bowls, finned rocker covers, finned carb spacers etc.etc. However I don't remember it being factory, I shall check...

Edit...I am almost sure it's an aftermarket addition. The bike is a mixture of parts from different eras...Nice though... 8)
