The Vanderhall looks pretty nice, reminds me of a Morgan 3-Wheeler:

I really like that, except for the engine sitting in front of the body. Looks strange to me...

Yeah, it is strange, and the Morgans can be ordered to your specs for color/materials. Think of the weight distribution with the engine hanging out over the front axle.. You could do a peg-leg peel for daaayyyyyys!

Top Gear had one on it...

Man, I need another 50

This just makes me want to watch Top Gear episodes all over again. So good! I want a show like that but with motorcycles. Does that exist?

I haven't seen anything similar to that with bikes, unfortunately. I ended up going back and watching that whole episode. Those were some good times.

Triumph just announced the new 2021 line up. I hate cross posting to Jalopnik, but the author summed it up nice. The Triumph media release is a lot to digest:

Gotta say, I'm not a fan of bobbers, but I am really a fan of theirs. Schwwwwing!

The 2021 Triumph Bonneville Range Gets More Great Retro

The 2021 Triumph Bonneville lineup includes more great examples of retro done right. I suppose I should be tired of these modern retro bikes, but I’m not. How could I be?

Comparatively they're under powered, but look like they'd be fun for a day cruiser.

 

[Spivitz]

Ooooo, I like

 

[Mr Baytchos]

Triumph bobber fucking rocks. Rode one and it will do rolling burnouts all day.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

So it's what, maybe 40° with shit all over the roads (salt), and I've heard at least three excessively loud harleys go past, and like two or three crotch rockets winding the engine out.

Um, fuck that.

I saw a big group of sport bikes out yesterday... And I was thinking the same... Nice temp, but everything is a mess!
