Custom Triumph Thruxton Mightyblue by Maria Motorcycles

Maria Motorcycles is the name of a new workshop in a country with no major representation in the scene of bike customization, namely Portugal. And since it's more than once when we saw truly nifty bikes coming form exactly this kind of people, here's yet another proof that nifty things can come from pretty much any workshop around the planet.

They've baptized one of their first projects the Mightyblue and it's a modified Triumph Thruxton. With no striking details and rather minute bodywork involved, we cannot help to notice the refined manner of doing things at Maria Motorcycles.

On the tech side, the Triumph Thruxton has remain almost unaltered, save for the modified (read removed) exhaust gas recirculation system which then led to a re-tuned injection mapping. On the visual side, the Thruxton got a completely new paint job, taking it from the original black to a nice, optimistic cyan and racing pinstriped design, old-school wrapped exhaust lines.

The convex side panels gave way to oval racing-type ones, and the rear cowl went off, leaving room for a retro-look ribbed two-up single-piece seat. Chrome went also off, and so did the front fender, now letting the Heidenau dual-sport tires in plain sight.

It's a good start for Maria Motorcycles of Portugal, and we're looking for more intriguing designs in the future.
