Belt Buckles

[xhdskip]

So, ya got something drawn up with the NASA theme?
Whatever design we end up with,
it doesn't need anything pointy sticking out anywhere on it.
"Some" bikers tend to have a little pudge around the middle,
Now some don't, but we'd want something flat or rounded on top
so as not to make anybody uncomfortable wearing it.
that's one reason the Triangle works so good,
that, and it was Triumphs logo for years and is iconic in it's own right,
like the harley shield and bar, when AMF took over harley
and tried to "update" the shield and bar it just didn't work..
but after looking at my triumph buckles,
I just don't see anything radically different,
so have a go at something else, Triumphs motto is
GO YOUR OWN WAY
so lets do it, come up with something different and we'll kick the idea around..

I know Nolton asked for pics of different buckle ideas,
Well, here's some of what Triumph has used through the years and decades.
See if any of these strikes your fancy, or everyone can come up with their own ideas..
We WILL come up with something, we always do,
so we may as well have everybodies ideas and input.
Voice your opinion, have a say, be part of this,
or let someone else decide what we end up with.
Anyway, here's my Triumph buckle collection (thus far)



Don't know if anyone will get any ideas from some of these,
but here they are for your consideration guys.

I got an idea
Scary huh

Everyone go out and look at there side cover

Either side there the same

I like that
It says it all
Rocket III
2300 cc
And not really a triangle
And gut friendly

Simple and easy and should cover all rocket captains

 

[xhdskip]

That is an excellent idea.

Maybe with "Triumph" above the Rocket III....
Either way it's a great idea.

Then we could get the lettering in black or red depending if you own a fast one or not

What about it Skip, is this the next one?

Skip, I don't have anything drawn up. Just making suggestions. There's a lot of good ones here already. I may try my hand at drawing something up this week just to have other options. We all have different tastes which is good because that should mean a lot of options. How about 3 Knuckleheads on a Rocket?

I recall this came up during the previous buckle and ring design discussions. I've always been keen on having cues from the bike - as Ro6ert had with that original ring. I think the side tin badges would make a cracking buckle just as they are (and in brass) and don't need Triumph added. Whatever, though.
