Featured Street Cup Project- Operation Bumble Bee.

Those cafe logos look really good. Your other mods also sound good. All about making your bike your own. I love my SC and will also get different tyres when I can. Others say they make a huge difference.

 

Looking great. My first bike was a yellow and silver-grey Street Cup too. Great memories!

 

A Tiger and a Street Triple RS. Love them both, but do miss the Street Cup. And the thumbs up from passers-by.

 

Good looking bike. I’m kind of biased though. Decals look good! Your list of mods seem to be reasonable. If you don’t plan on doing much wet weather riding I’d say save your money and run the tires out. They mostly displeased me in the wet. Just couldn’t trust them. The front tire has about 3mm tread when new, so it won’t take too long to wear out. I’d put about 3 or 4K on the set, then change them.

 

looks nice

 

I really like the little wind deflector above the light and the tail, including color and decals.
I never liked the end bar mirrors, but that's just me. It's your bike, so far you like it.
I think a grill on the headlamp would be too much. It's more a scrambler/trail thing.

 

Always nice to make few changes and additions. The decals look good.
My SC has Remus slip-ons, SATO rear sets, round Triumph bar end mirrors, tec progressive front springs and adjusters, Trip Machine leather grip wrap, throttle spacers, EBC sintered front pads.
Had the tyres replaced at the end of last year and although not used the bike much since they do feel a lot better. The Pirellis were OK but followed every line on the road.
The tec springs really improve the front end which I found dived too much under braking.
The picture shows it fitted with a Corbin seat that I have now taken off as I never got on with it.

 

Something to think about regarding clear coating over the decals. I wouldn’t bother for one main reason, what if you get tired of looking at them? With good quality outdoor grade vinyl they should last a good while, but if you tire of them you can just peel them off and be rid of them or change them. If you clear over them you’re stuck. I’ve since got rid of mine on the tail and am about to change the tank logo again.

 

Would love a set of rear sets for my SC as well, and yours look great. How do they feel when riding? Did you get them shipped over from the States or is there a UK supplier?

 

Hi. I got them through www.arhcustoms.co.uk. I like them but they are quite a bit father back and higher than stock. Weirdly the Corbin set didn't work with them, more to do with the seat than the rear sets. I actually prefer my spare street twin seat (normally just reserved for camping trips). Not the best look but I like the riding position and I can fit a tail pack.
The rear sets are very high quality and fitted easily (just a bit of filing on the gear change arm as it was a very tight fit on the gear shaft). one thing to note though is they didn't come with folding footrests or lever ends. the lever end are available at extra cost but I had to adapt some other folding footrests, that is of course if you want them folding.
They were very expensive but I like the feel and the look.
