BIG hat tip to Asphalt And Rubber who broke this.! Well these folks at Enigma simply could not wait. Fantastic Stuff! I have no idea why Triumph won’t just build it themselves…

Motorcycle Photo Of The Day 
What’s interesting is, if you go to the Asphalt and Rubber article about the Enigma and look at the photos of the build:

You will see that the frame that they are building is nothing like the all-steel trellis frame in this computer generated picture.
The frame that they are building has alloy side-plates to locate the swing-arm pivot and steel tubes that attach directly from the steering head to the cylinder head, with apparently only a single steel tube on each side connecting the steering head assembly with the swing-arm pivot plates.
The computer generated picture has a frame that is very similar to the frame on a Moto-Morini:

But the frame that they are actually working on looks more like one of the recent Bakker or Harris frames.
Randy that’s a good catch on those build pics. The actual bike on the bench looks to be significantly different than the design photos. A lot more robust at the swingarm certainly and it appears the dual trellis is getting thinned out to use the engine as more of a stressed member although they could be working thir way to the second tail of the trellis. Might be the next phase of the build if there were more progress pics.
