    American workshop and brand ‘The Factory Metal Works‘, founded by Lucas Joyner, is a well-known name around the world. The company is based in Concord, North Carolina, but the brand TFMW is present in virtually all over the world thanks to its partnerships with Baron’s Speed ​​Shop in the UK, Dockland’s Speed ​​Shop and online store Mooneyes in Japan, Trojan Classic Motorcycles in Sydney, Australia, and Rock and Cycles of Sao Paulo Brazil. The distinguishing feature here is that TFMW operates almost exclusively on British motorcycles, particularly Triumph, restoring models of the past and providing them with modern technology.

Rake angle is now 27 degrees, with 5 inches of rear stretch and 3 inches of axle drop. The Factory Metal Works also provided for the new tank, the original chrome oil tank located under the saddle, footpegs and chain guards. At the front instead we find a new headlight and a 21-inch wheel, while at the rear there’s a 18-inch wheel with a fender supplied by Baron’s Speed Shop.
    However, the highlight of this custom bike is undoubtedly ‘that’ exhaust system, with those two manifolds running parallel to both the ground and the frame, almost blending in with it, and then turn sharply upwards to end with two silencers that shout out loads of decibels just behind the ears of the rider. Hence the name …
