Triumph TT Bud Ekins 1963 Desert Racer replica

Ace Classics love to create replicas of well known and iconic Triumph Motorcycles from the past. You'll know what we mean if you remember our last video with them, showcasing 3 of their Steve McQueen replicas including the 'Great Escape' bike.

Those bikes were stunning in their fanatical attention to detail and this one is no exception.

Built from trawling the internet for reference imagery on Bud Ekins' 1963 Triumph TT Desert racer and speaking with people who knew and raced with him, Kev and Ewan talk us through what was done and what went into typical Ekins build and why.
