    Downhill speed wobble

    Your bike looks a treat with those gold Carrozzerias, have been pestering Carrozzeria about a set for my Thruxton, but they won't sell me a set, with a 17 inch front.....

    Downhill speed wobble

    Mike, what 17 inch cast wheels have you fitted? I've been pestering Carrozzeria for a set for my Thruxton , but they will only do the the 18 front 17 rear combo..... re. headshaking with saddlebags.... definitely more pronounced since I fitted the Triumph saddle bag brackets and generic soft...

    1087 SFS Up and running

    Carlos, looks like you lost a shitload of mid range with this pipe, certainly a topend pipe! Hopefully when the jetting is sorted, the power curve should look different. Look forward to dyno runs with the D&D fullrace TT system and the street version of the TT system

    broken exhaust stud!

    I'm with Jamoster on the other forum, get the Riigid easy out kit. use the drill guides, drill through the stud, tap in the straight fluted easy out and remove. I feel that all those taperered extractors just spread the broken stud, making it harder to remove. But if using the L.H. drill bit...

    Doing fine mate. No dyno runs, saving my money for a big block kit and carbs, still undesided which way to go on these, BP or TPUSA Carlos, what is the difference in adjustability between the Keihin and Mikuni?? Also you said in one of your posts you are using the stock Thruxton igniter...

    Attn 42 Mikuni's Team ( John-Mike-Jeff-etc-etc)

    Hey Carlos, how ya doin man? All good I hope. Got a couple of questions, besides 3mm extra diameter and choke of the Mik 42's what are the difference in adjusability between the Mik 42's and Keihin 39's? Also are you going test with 41mm Keihins? And is TPUSA going to offer 41 Keihins in a...

    Super brakepads!

    For a long time have been using EBC FA196HH fronts and EBC FA 214HHH rears on my Thruxton and recently my dealer has opted for SBS brake products because the EBC distributor in Australia, Wayne Gardner Enterprises has been inconsistent with supply of the EBC product. Have recently used SBS...

    just put sport demons on

    Just fitted my first and last rear PSD 140/80, sticky tire. This tire was fitted 2000km(1243 miles) ago and if I get 3500km(2175 miles), I would consider this lucky. This tire is just not cost effective compared to the mileage I have obtained so far, @ $180 compared to $240-260 for radials...

    1087 SFS Up and running

    Fred, how can you reason with a man who solely advocates the removal of the balance shafts and the camshaft backlask gears?? Fair enough, you would get a great deal of reduction in reciprocating weight, but you would need a shitload of mallory metal to balance up the crank to somewhere half...
