You'll get the tyre levers in if they're short but you won't get the tubes in. This Tool Tube is not as big as you might imagine or want. I put levers, repair patches, cable ties, sockets for the wheel nuts and a cable fixing kit in mine. It's full.

I forgot to put in my original post.... 25mm or 1" outside diameter gives a nice clamping area and all seems pretty sturdy.

Yes it's Bacon the ADVriders forum mascot. I had him from the last week in June2009 up to the Stella Alpina rally in July and I took him to Slovenia, Triumph Tridays in Austria (same trip), for a train ride to London in my driving cab, on the English National road rally and finally down to the...

Hi Timintoul.

For those of us that ride our scramblers on the dirt, we all know that the exhaust bends your right leg outwards and makes it hard to get your foot onto the peg when stood up. Well I decided to remedy that situation by having some spacers made to take the footpeg outwards. I went for 20mm for...

I went with Arrow for two reasons :- 1/ It's a Triumph accessory so the warranty is not affected. 2/ The Zard looks like it was knocked up in a shed compared to the finish on the Arrow. The sound is just loud enough to be enjoyable but not so loud so as to annoy anyone. Just right IMO.

I got some new Continental tubes for my Tiger recently, they were made in India. I guess it's not problem in a Global economy so long as they're made and inspected to the standard set by the parent company. Afterall Triumph twins are now made in Thailand. I've been using Avon tyres on both my...

Mounted mine slightly differently.... TBH I made a bit of a hash of it but I needed to do it quickly before going on holiday on the bike. I bashed out a stainless steel bracket to come out from under the seat and used a couple VERY strong cable ties at the forward end to wrap around the...

That's impossible to answer since you don't list where you are on your (not filled out) profile.

The odd thing about the BMW system is that the spoke tension is adjusted at the hub end. So to fit them onto the Scram would involve completely new hubs. Also strange that they don't fit this system onto the new F800 series. Or, indeed, any of the chain driven bikes. weird.

Fuck the location just post her number.

What is wrong with these do gooding twats? We all need a bit titilation from time to time.

The fused wiring is already there. Triumph do a socket kit but it pokes out just above the exhaust...not good for the wires you're plugging in. I made my own bracket and mine now pokes out the non exhaust side.

Looks like Triumph copied that exhaust and just mirrored it for our Scrambler.

I actually think that the engine bars will fit but anyway Rentec make some good crash bars for the Bonnie. Or the Triumph ones http://www.triumph.co.uk/uk/clothingAccessoriesPopup.aspx?GID=2 The bash plate just bolts straight on.
