They Shall Not Grow Old..... http://www.cwgc.org/ Please visit.

It got too big to run from home, annualised sales approaching Euros 90,000. I needed to move into a small warehouse, extend the product line. All that required capital. So I found someone with an existing bike parts business who was looking to expand. A deal was done. I miss some aspects of...

Warning Be careful, I started like that with a 2001 Bonnie, people asked me if they could buy one or two and before I realised I ended up running a substantial business (Jenks Bolts) until I sold it in 2008!! :eeek:

100,000 miles / 160,000 km There is a guy in California who has a basic, little modified 2001 Bonnie: one of the first in the USA. As of today is is 300 miles shy of 100,000 miles. No issues, no dramas, the usual and expected consumable and wear items consumed and worn. Original clutch...

About 1pound. Could have been less if we had not wanted to use the stock cush drive and srive plate. The front is in the works..... Call the guys at Jenks Bolts...Not me!!

What is left? A couple of years ago I did an experiment, running the bike till it cut out "dry". I did this to see if it would be worth fitting a second gas tap on the right side. When the bike "ran out" by leaning the bike over to the left so it is almost on the ground it is possible to...

And 20Nm is taken from the 2004 Triumph Bonneville Workshop Manual. Page: 1.28.

Jenks Thruxton Well, here it is.....

Before I sold Jenks Bolts I'd started looking at a way to get an alternative to the horrible and spoke breaking prone rear hub. Well, it took 3X as long as planned, but here it is: designed by Talon Engineering in Yeovil, Somerset and based on their Super Moto design it is machined from...

I do as the cat tells me.

No rumour, the rear hub iis done and in production. Weighs 25% less than stock and has not touching spokes. Not on the Jenks Bolts Website, but give them a call or e-mail. I've posted pics in a new thread.

Jenks Tiger As well as the Thruxton I have this pussycat.... Brilliant bike. No more to say.

Thanks everyone....some familiar names here....

It has one last chance: I am replacing the Helibars with Triumph's "Fat Bars" from the Speed 3. The bars and risers were on sale at 3 Cross for £30.00....I've got a Bonnie top Clamp on the way from a friend in Switzerland. If it all fits and makes the riding position comfortable then I'll keep...

Took me a while to find this place and I thought I'd introduce myself. Some of you will know "Jenks Bolts"....after 5 years it is no longer my playground, but it seemed a great idea at the time. The new owners keep me involved, but it is a relief not to spend evenings putting bolts in...

Indeed they have and the lack of balance pipe costs about 10bhp, so I'm told. They are working on a cross over or balance pipe.
