Post by corksthruxton has few more cc and supposed more herbs than the 865 bonneville
t100
also a 300mmm semi floating disk as opposed to a solid disk - does brake
pretty well
yep on preload adjustable front forks
yep same average rear shocks ill be ditching mine for a set of ikons in the
near future
Money well spend I'd suggest. I couldn't really afford the Ikons so I
got the cheaper Hagon shocks, which while they looked the goods in
terms of old school styling weren't all that much better than stock
after a while. They only had 3 preload settings and no rebound or
compression dampening.
Post by corksi sdont find the seat to bad, plenty of my own padding
I'm not wanting in the padding department either, but I still needed a
dead sheep. Even then it was still a plank, Thruxton seats might be
better (they surely couldn't be worse).
Post by corksthe rearsets and the clipons make the thruxton heaps of fun to ride at any
speed which is why i bought it
future mods include some decent pipes
I had modified stock pipes on mine which sounded good but the bloke who
bought it off me put a set of staintune reverse cone mufflers on which
sounded absolutely magnificent.
Oh, if it takes the same air filter as the Bonnie, I'd recommend
getting a Unifilter foam filter so you can clean and reuse it no
rejetting required either. If it's the same as the Bonnie, put some
duct tape over the frame before you remove the air filter as there is
no way to get it out without it pressing hard up against the frame.
Ash.
