Cool. That is the only Trident Featherbed I've ever seen. I've seen CB750s, Sportsters, Vincents, Triumph and BSA trins in Norton Featherbed frames, but never a Trident. The 3 into 3 is cool.
I built this Norton Atlas Café in the 70s and sold it in the 90s. I bought this Trackmaster framed Trident in the 80s and sold it in the 90s. Had a pregnant wife and a broken back at the time.
Those Norton Featherbed frames won GP races for years and years.
Of course here is me and my Hurricane at The Lookout in the late 80s.

We get quite a few Tritons sent in to Bike EXIF—maybe one every couple of weeks. I’m a big fan of the genre and always enjoying looking at them. But I sometimes think once you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all. Then this modern take on the classic Triton dropped into my inbox, and my…

The part of 74 from Hemet to Palm Desert is much much better, in my opinion.sigpic Too old, too many bikes, too many cars, too many things

Early 80's I used to wait at the fire station and take out after sport bikes on my Atlas and try to chase them down. It wasn't very fast then, but there weren't many straights in that area. From the Lookout to Elsinore, I would sometimes go after them with a 441 Victor, which went OK downhill. I owned a rental house in Lake Elsinore from '83 to '93 or so, and kept most of my bikes at my brother's house there for when I wasn't in Alaska.sigpic Too old, too many bikes, too many cars, too many things
