The Dime City, Iron & Air & Triumph Motorcycles Bonneville T100 Give

Go ahead...imagine a 2013 Triumph Cafe in your garage.

Remember last year when Dime City Cycles and Iron & Air gave away a completely restored, tripped out 1978 CB750? Of course you do. We're at it again. But this time, we're giving one lucky speed freak the keys to a beautiful 2013 Triumph Bonneville custom (CR). It's been given the same DCC love once again, resulting in a modern classic, cafe-styled machine that is pure unadulterated fun to ride (trust us).

Enter to win & do good at the same time. 

The motorcycle community is wide and far-reaching and with the participation of our friends at Dime City Cycles & Triumph Motorcycles, we felt this was an opportunity to do good while giving away a beautiful motorcycle. We've teamed up with our good friend and veteran motorcycle journalist Neale Bayly and his Wellspring Foundation. While optional, after you complete your entry, you'll be given a chance to help support his mission to support a remote children's orphanage base in Peru as seen on his recent TV show on The SPEED Channel.

In this video (the first of several leading up to the giveaway at the 2013 Barber Vintage Festival) Herm and Jason start to tear this stocker apart slowly turning it in a sweet retro speed machine. We hope you enjoy it!

HONDA CG125 X ZÜNDAPP DB200

The Honda CG125 is not one of the world’s most desirable motorcycles. But it’s compact, cheap to run and staggeringly reliable. Since the mid-70s, tens of thousands have been used as commuter bikes in Europe—and most of them are probably still on the road.

You don’t see many customized examples, but this new arrival from Spain makes up for the drought. Not least because it’s got a distinct pre-War vibe and a girder fork. The man behind this machine is Juan Ramón Ortega, who you may remember as the owner of a particularly sweet BMW R75/5 we featured a couple of years ago.

Ortega got the idea for this bike when he spotted a 1938 Zündapp DB200 in a local classic motorcycle magazine. “I thought, let’s do something really cool,” he says. “I had a Yamaha 250 and a mechanic, and began the adventure. But the mechanic didn’t make much progress, and the union between the frame and the fork was not good.”

Ortega ditched the Yamaha idea and went back to the drawing board. He decided to restart the project using a 125 that his girlfriend could ride on a car license. But who could put that Zündapp fork on a modern bike? He called Pedro García and Efraon Triana ofCafé Racer Dreams, and they got the show back on the road.

A 2005-model Honda CG125 was selected. “Very, very ugly,” Ortega notes. “So my idea was to build the bike around the fork, with black-and-gold paint and a very 1940s look.” CRD got to work, grafting on the front disc brake, lightening the chassis and simplifying the electrics. An angular tank from a 50cc Derbi FDX was matched to the frame.

After several months of engineering and fabrication, Efraon Triana applied the paint. ‘Sierra Bonita’ was finished, and Ortega was happy. Top marks for originality and ingenuity—and the low, squared-off look is strangely appealing too, don’t you think?
