Bafflectomy on my 09 SE. Sounds much better now, however I do get the pop on deceleration. I kind of like it though. I catch myself turning my head so I can hear my pipes as I accelerate.

I have stock shocks on my 09 SE, and would like to raise it up a bit. Can anyone recommend a set of shocks that would do that?

Debaffle those stockers!

Looks pretty cool to me. I can admire someone with the time, skill and imagination to do that. (and the dough)

Because I have nothing to really add, save for another pic of my baby, here she is with her napoleon bar ends. (first gen iphone crappy pic, sorry)

Don't let my bonneville hear me, she'll get jealous. I have been eyeing a scrambler for a while. I love the bonneville, of course, but I can't stop dreaming about that scrambler! Anybody ridden both, and if so, what where your comparisons? Oh, and anyone have any lines on what the '10 color...

Excellent explanations, thanks all. I had a general idea, but that straightened it all out!

<hijack> Someone explain to me what 360 degree means? 270 degree? I kind of get it, but not really.

Bought the SE in april, and eventually swapped out the stock seat because I am a little tall for it (6'2") so it's great for shorter riders. (It'll be the wife's when she decides to upgrade from the sooter) Bought a triumph mostly on the advice of my dad, who has a speedmaster. Very low...

That I will, thanks.

I have the blue & white SE and love it. Actually come to think about it, out of the 2 bikes I've owned, they've both been blue. Anyway. I have liked most of the color combos I've seen of all of the triumph's I've seen, save for the light blue/dark blue on the 09 America. Not a fan.

<thread hijack> De-baffled my SE's stock pipes, and it pops on decel. Anything I should worry about? I don't mind the sound at all.

Put the 19t on my SE, and there is a slight power drop coming out of the gate. Need to give it a bit more gas to get going, but overall I like it. I always felt the bike revved too high, and was always searching for 6th.

At the hotel where I work, the general manager has a '71 TR6. I park my 09 SE right next to it, and he always comments when he sees me that mine is the only bike he lets park next to his car. Free parking? Thanks again, triumph. Crappy picture, yeah. iPhone camera sucks.

Glad to hear you escaped relatively unharmed. <pours a little out for a fallen triumph>

My dad has bubs on his speedmaster. And yes, they are quite loud. Too loud for me. He even admits they are too loud. I recently debaffled my pipes on my SE, and wanted to try them out, but all I could hear where his damn bubs when we went riding. :)

Hello, and welcome to another denver citizen!

That's a gorgeous bike. When I have a stable, there will be a Guzzi.

Because "old bonneville riders" would've attracted the wrong element. <ducks>

Thanks for the replies. I assumed as much, especially the cleanliness, but I figured it was worth a shot. Would be a nice piece for a show bike though.

Checking out the polycarbonate sprocket cover from triumph, and was wondering if anyone has any experience. I love the looks of it, but does the inside not get dirty from the chain? https://sslhelm.net/phillipmccallen-com/triumph/scripts/prodView.asp?idProduct=465

Not a scrambler, but here is my SE with Napoleon's. Favorite thing (other than debaffle my pipes) that I've done to my bike.

I just did on my SE, which I believe share the same pipes. http://www.newbonnevilleriders.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3728

Good point, thanks for the tip.
