Default Speed Triple back from Powder coat.

Just a few pictures of my Triumph Speed Triple Build. (T509)

Picked up the frame and misc parts from the powder coater today.

Body work is at the paint shop still.

Time to start putting it back together.

Pictures were taken at 10:00PM in my garage so not the best lighting. (and my stained orange floor does not help the colors)

Frame/subframe and wheels are a champaign gold. Everything else is a textured black.










Motor all freshly painted and ready to go back together. (not the best picture)

I planned on running a tap through all the threads. Have not looked at them in detail.

Some holes had bolts in them, some didn't. So I am sure I have some to clean out with the tap.

First thing I did this morning was grab the wheels to take them and get the tires put back on. Need something to set it on once assembly starts. (technically I guess it started with putting the valve stems back on the wheels)
