hello everybody thanks for spotting my tribsa. i shall put some more pics on soon. tribsa can also be found on www.tesperformance.co.uk, under classic fighter in the gallery. alternatively www.sophiainnsbruck.com under streetfighter shoot nice piccys you,ll see!!!! with regard to some comments i do own a 1982 kwak 1100 however it is standard red, the tribsa has been painted in a modern flip flop two pack which under different lighting conditions changes from a very light metalic green {a7ss} to agolden beige {a10 polychromatic beige} as on my stock golden flash the pictures taken here sadly only show the pea green which i appreciate is not its best shot and the pics are from the original build shots prior to transfers, it really deserves to be seen in sunlight to be appreciated.sorry to go on so cheers phil

hi again, the whole concept for the build originated from having seen an article in "classic bike guide" of another recently completed special, this was a more tamed version to mine, more in keeping with a traditional cafe racer. my mate had recently just had tes build a fighter so i went to meet alan {builder/engineer}and explained the basic critera which was to isolastically mount the t140 lump into an a10 frame incorporating a tubular monoshocked swingarm using all the modern anciliaries and cycle parts.i own and have always liked the round lines of the a10 so sourced a frame the engine followed as did the lyta tank. the rest evolved over a 12 month period with the knowedge and an eye for detail of alan. cheers phil
