A few Bonnie updates

Fitted Lsl Bars, Rizoma mirrors over the winter which has given me the riding position I was looking for, had to shorten the bars by 25mm each side though as just too wide. The mirrors was pure cosmetic, I coudn't stand the Mickey Mouse ears chrome ones any longer!!!

Whilst I was at it I removed the AIS and fitted the New Bonneville plugs and resistor which really cleans up the cylinder head as well as making it possible to remove the plugs with out lifting the tank, the real bonus ball though is it's stopped back popping through the exhaust now when i shut the throttle off.

 

SCMC St Fillians Gathering 22/09/2013

The odd shower couldn't put a dampener on the SCMC meet up at St Fillians on the banks of Loch Earn, a good turn out of classic bikes ; a cracking ride in some beautiful countryside what more could you want?

Triumph Flatrack by Mule

Easy to see why the Bonnie is a customizers dream, it allows the owner, builder to make so many styles out of the same bike, one week you can have a flat tracker the next a cafe racer all made with the same base bike.
Anyway here's a couple of flat trackers that just look so right they could have come straight from the Triumph factory.

Whats not to like ?

My Bonneville

Few pictures of my Bonneville after I changed a few things during the winter:

Major changes are:
Thruxton tank
Arrow 2 into 2 exhaust system
Solo Seat
LSL Footrests
Flat Bars
Dart Screen
I have also changed a few other bits an pieces but next winter will see some major modifications

Bonneville In The Snow

Nice Bonneville in the snow, would not be mine though!i think I am getting far too precious about my bikes, need to start riding them more and looking at them less........

 

Doctor Who rides a Bonny

Hey if it's good enough for a time lord then it's good enough for me!!!

Anyone know where I can get one of them anti gravity things though?

 

Check Out The Craftsmanship

This is a stunning Bonnie, the more you look at tit the more you can tell how much time has been spent on attention to detail, a beautiful blend of old and new.
For more info check out return of the cafe racer

Happy New Year

Happy New Year!

 And what better way to start with a couple of images of a cool T120 Bobber, more of which can be seen on Southsiders M/c site.

Hope 2013 is good to you , keep it rubber side folks!

Modern Triton

Cracking mixture of old and new in this Triton, would put a smile on any ones face when they lifted the garage door. Also worth noting this bike is ridden whatever the weather, makes me feel a little embarrassed about sticking mine away for the winter, but I will get over it!

LSL Goodies

Purchased a set of these for the Bonnie, have to say the quality is nothing short of  outstanding, honestly the photos don't do them justice!

 

Thruxton Tank

Sale of the century this one! I could not believe my luck when I stumbled across this tank. It's a Brand new never fitted Thruxton tank mine for a measly sum so now my Bonny will have the proper tank badges instead of decals.

Triumph update

Fitted this dress up kit that I got from TEC Triumph, was surprised when I took my clutch cable off to find it was full of water, the original rubber tit doesn't let water out the cable!

This is how I found the idle air control piping when I removed the tank, I have fitted new valve but I have had to order new pipes; the bike is running a lot smoother now and I finally got the brakes working how they should even the back one although I cant change the pads in it, so I will have to look out for a good second hand Calliope in the near future.

Silver Eyes

 Pinched from Bike Exif, so pop over there for the full spec, but she's too good not too share.
