    Big Dave posting in a thread about how cool people think they are, there's a surprise.

    I still offer lessons. You'd need the extended course.

    Balls .. the chopper is probably a Triumph Bonneville ... 1966/67



    By 1968 Triumph had a twin-leading shoe front brake, the one in the Dunedin picture has a single

    The length of the kick starter pedal is slightly longer than from previous years, to give an easier starting stroke ..

    The splayed angle of the carbs in the Dunedin picture suggests either a later model or that the pictured one has different manifolds .. but the frame and everything else suggests 1966/67 Bonnie - it might be a Thunderbird (or other single carb variant) from the same years .. and the twin carb manifolds have been added - or even a later model head added with more splayed inlet ports ..

    Anyway - it's a twin, not a small single ..
