    Stumbled across this browsing the web today. Very good looking kit available for the Speed Twin, without having to spend a fortune for custom work. I think it looks awesome, even the wife said “ohhhh I like that!”

    Oooooh. :cool:

    Not sure it’s for me, but it’s terrific. It is particularly sweet that the pieces are modular. I could see fitting the fairing alone in carbon (my ST is black).

    Kind of my thoughts too. I think it looks great, but not sure it’s quite the look I want for mine.

    Oh man, that’s a great look IMO. Nailed that aggressive yet functional look.
    I would probably start with just the faring with the stock handlebars. Probably wouldn’t do the seat cowl, only because I have frequent passengers.
    Nice find!

    I like that a lot, almost makes me want to buy a Street Twin, but I'm not allowed any more bikes. (And I've run out of garage space.)

    Fugly and completely misses the point of the Speed Twin.

    I really love the look of the Speed Twin :cool:
    But I do think that this body kit is very complimentary and looks good :cool:

    I like this a lot! I get daily emails from Bike EXIF and this bike and kit stood out to me when first I saw it. I love the exhaust--I'm partial to stainless with those beautiful exposed welds in particular.

    Your opinion, and doesn’t make it wrong. But the point of a bike is whatever you want it to be. I take it you don’t like custom cafe racers then??
    I love the original look of the speed twin, which is why I bought mine. But I also like this and think it’s perfectly suits the bike.

    I think the kit gives the Speed Twin a nice muscular look. The kit seems somewhat avant-garde, hence the mixed reviews. This is the beauty of Triumph and the ability to tinker with the look and performance with a host of aftermarket and factory mods.

    Apart from the belly pan I like it a lot. But I don't like belly pans anyway...

    You can sign up to Rennstall's mailing list to keep updated about availability and pricing. I got a response on paint schemes, initially the body kit will be primer ready and they are planning on offering finished parts in the three colour schemes later.
