Difficile de définir sur quelle base ce chopper a été construit. Ce qui est sûr c'est le pilote. Il s'agit de John Bonham, le batteur du groupe Led Zeppelin (décédé en 1980) ![[Image: bonhamjohn002dv9.th.jpg]](http://img175.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bonhamjohn002dv9.jpg "http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/1921/bonhamjohn002dv9.th.jpg") |

The conical front brake is a BSA/Triumph item from 1971-73. I think the motor is also BSA/Triumph - a single cylinder - maybe a B50? |

Cool bike. Dual-square headlights were illegal in the USA back when this was filmed. |

I have found a better pic at www.led-zeppelin.org (not from the movie): ![[Image: johnbonhamthesongremaintx4.8031.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/0is111/johnbonhamthesongremaintx4.8031.jpg) It seems to be a single cylinder BSA with a one in two exhaust pipe. -- Last edit: 2008-03-04 23:47:12 |

A BSA expert tells me, "with angle of the carburettor, one would almost think BSA 250" |

Triumph T 25 T, one of 3 built by Burbank Customs for Led Zep. There was a 4th bike built using a T 120 Bonneville engine, called Sunset Tripper. https://forums.ledzeppelin.com/topic/22193-john-bonhams-motorcycle-at-auction/ |
