Idle Thoughts On Upgrades - Scrambler 1200xe

Sorry, I can't comment on the tire pressure monitor. I have added the TEC side mirrors and can tell you I love them. I found the stock mirrors looked a little goofy and were difficult to adjust to a position that was appropriate. I was always fiddling with them. I put the side mirrors on and after an initial adjustment haven't had to touch them. They look great too. I did the small fly screen as well. It covers the back of the instrument panel and is largely cosmetic. Functionally it smooths out the wind a little but offers no real protection.

I'm curious how you like the pannier? I was considering getting it but I'm concerned it sticks out too far

 

It makes sense to ride for a while first. I did the fly screen after owning it for about 4 months and the mirrors after 8. I'm considering the tail tidy now and taking out the catalytic converter. It's hot in the summer.

 

I discussed with the sales person about spending £200 on the tyre pressure monitor when I bought a Street Twin. His opinion, don’t waste your money, you’ll get obsessed about tyre pressures and be constantly checking they’re right.
Took his advise.

I’ve fitted the tec bar end mirrors, they look better and work better than the triumph bar end mirrors on my street triple RS, I’ve also fitted a tec tail tidy which makes the bike look loads better, my bike came with loads of triumph extras they came as part of a the deal so if tell me what bits you fancy for your bike I may be able to help, there’s also a dedicated scrambler section on this forum we’re you will probably get more dead back.

 

Hi Rebel,
I had the fly screen fitted to protect the clock and wiring. Also fitted a fender extender and head light grill.
Got free Arrow cans separate with bike, will be fitting shortly together with Booster plug.

Shaun, Kevlar,
Do you have a pic of TEC side mirrors fitted on the bike?

I’ll go take some, any other pics of bike while I am at it?.

 

pics of tec mirrors and tail tidy as I remember you asking something about the tail tidy.

 

Go the distance and take a 360 ....... I never get bored looking at an XE . I Got the clutch and AC black covers fitted to mine ....... small mod but really sets the engine off ,,,,,, I know .....sad bloke alert

 

Great looking mirrors. Looks like I will fit them soon.

 

Mine are separate light and indicators, I’ve seen your type on bikes ,I think they must be USA only.

 

From what I remember they are illegal over here RH
