Thought I would post up some pics of my bike and some of the accessories I have put on her. I am new to the bike world and happy for some advice on future mods you guys think are worthy of doing. Thanks and enjoy the pics any comments are welcome, I plan to put a rear rack on sometime soon and also purchase some British Custom Predator Exhausts, I have also ordered a clutch cover and old school horn. All parts have been purchased from new bonneville and joker machine, by the way I live in Melbourne Australia and welcome any aus contacts down here..
:cheers::beer:



WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT THE ADDITION A SIXTY 8 WHITE CAM COVER?

I bought them at www.newbonneville.com just be careful when installing them I accidentally broke the speedo km reset milage stalk. Not an expensive repair but none the less annoying. They are easy on the eyes when riding at night, although a little modern I am really happy with the results for something a little different. Also if you wish to get the red colour sometimes they can look pink like on my mates moto guzzi. Thanks for the nice comments.

:worthy:
 
So, inspired by the photo, I took apart the speedo on my Bonne and took out the bulb. It occurs to me that the replacement has to be a simple LED light with the appropriate fitting. Couldn't I get this somewhere else for less than $20?

This strikes me as one of those "replacement Kits" you buy from a vendor and when it arrives you open the box and find a 38 cent part that you could've bought anywhere, as long as you knew where to shop.

Anyone know where I could get a replacement "kit"?
 
Yeah I should've also said that I think your bike is awesome.

I hope you enjoy it as much as you should! I saw that color scheme at the dealer a little while after I bought my bike and was stunned by how nice it looks "in the flesh". Grats man!

Three WLEDx5 and one 74xHP3 from SuperBrightLEDs, will do your Bonneville/T100/Thruxton speedometer and tachometer.

Is that just for the speedo and tac? I have a Scram that I would like to make the oil warning light/high beam/turn signal brighter, or at least just the turn signal bulb. Which one fits those please? Do you use a color one or a white one?

thanks!

I've got an Se also, How do you like the predators?

HAVEN'T GOT THEM YET, I was considering STAINTUNES but I like the note on the predators better check out youtube its a personal choice, but I think the finish is better both stainless. From what I gather its a choice on loudness at idle and at speed, style and off course $$$$$. I think the predators are worth the $$ they are 800 Aud from a guy in port macquary inclusive of postage where staintunes are 1200 Aud and I cannot justify the price difference for anything. Build quality is the same so I would prefer to spend the four hundred on something else hope this helps somewhat Ben.:shh: Also with regard to EPA Stuff the guy told me that they pass in sydney and I checked our EPA regs they are the same. Apparently they are not that noisey on idle nothing like harley pipes here is the link to the guy below. He owns a motorbike store and has installed hundreds without any issues. Or alternatively get them from british customs direct or www.newbonneville.com
