My '04 thruxton clutch started to slip after I installed '01 790 Bonneville cams....fitted Barnett green springs, Part # 501-82-06023, that fixed the clutch slipping problem!

Hi Mike, got some pics of your conversion......

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.....

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...

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

Hey Phil, how ya doin man, I know what you mean about the wrist soreness, mine has been gettin sore lately, maybe I should lube the cables, I would really like to get a quick action throttle, when I have enough cash together, I'll be getting the Keihin flat slides, and will wait till Sudco...

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...

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...

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 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...

Triumph Thruxton Damper Rod/Emulator Kit Our Triumph Thruxton "Drop In" Damper Rod Kit comes with two nicely polished CNC machined damper rods, and have all of the normally tedious drilling and braizing done! Included in the kit is a pair of 4101 RT Emulators, that mate perfectly to the rods...

Did BP balance up the crank, got any pics of the balanced crank?

Greg, did BP balance up the crank, got any pics of the balanced crank?

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...

I like the Honda red can chain lube I think it is the same as the Dupont but with more Moly in it....

OK Fred I now see that he has deleted your post 1905.52....... And deleted the post 1905.60 wich I assume was your reply to his reply post,1905.53......... What didhe say in 1905.53 and 1905.60?????......... I assume you have been banned from his forum........

Well Freddy and others, what can I say, other than I told you so, SPEED IS AN ARSEHOLE, :lol: I have been enjoying the banter over there on Speeds forum. But I am dissapointed I missed his repy to your last post 1905.52, obviously he has abused you in his reply, realised that he stuck his...

Well, I had a 160/60 Pilot Road on a stock rear rim, and also had 160/70 Bridgestone BT20. The Michy was too wide had 1 inch chicken strips because the tire pulled in so much the the tread edges were vetical, but the bridgy was ok looked good, tall and helped sharpen up the steering and was able...

Hi John, 4000 miles out of a Sport Demon,thats like 6500 kms, I've got no hope, just fitted my first SD, 140/80, if I get 4000 km out of this tire I'll be happy, sort of, but I really like the way this tire grips and how easy it turns into bends. I've been getting 7-7.5K kms from radial rears...

Whadda ya mean "why bring this shit over here?" Is it not the reason this forum exsist, because disillusioned members of the Rat forum got banned and post deleted from that forum?? Matter of fact a while ago, Carlos was banned from the Modified Bonnevile forum, later on Carlos was reinstated...

Carlos, well done, the numbers are great and the dyno curves are excellent, Would be great to see another 100+ hp bike on this forum. Pray tell how you are going to get the other 10-12 hp? 41mm FCR's? 42 Mikuni's? Different cams? That should stick the wind up Lee Alexander, aka Speed...
