HI guys just added this to my garage to complement my new STR RS.A 2020 reg one previous owner Thruxton R with just over 5500 miles.This may well have been someones on here? if it was please pm me.Bought bike from Hatfields of Crowthorne a Royal Enfield dealer.I have fitted R+G tail tidy to smarten up the rear put a dark smoke Powerbronze screen not shown in this photo and carried out an engine service.not a valve check but done all the fluids and filters.Just to know that it is all done.
Started painting mine green, got bored with the white. Added a new tank strap and fuel cap. I'll add the fairing etc when the painter acts on my suggestion to paint the inside of it (!)
Just added the MotoStitch seat. Top notch quality, too! Got the comfort upgrade, so much more comfortable for longer rides. Sadly, it’s winter coming on here, so… Just got some leather grip wraps to put on and debating about leather tank pads. We will see. To Tail Tidy or not to Tail Tidy, that’s the next big question!
Now that's delicious ! Nice touch with the lighter coloured seat with the darker paint work too. Tail tidy yes ! I went with the R&G, which retained the original indicators, but was painful to install - probably due to my zero knowledge of electrickery. I'm thinking of an integrated LED job that will accommodate my on-order saddle bag/bracket set up. NRC tail tidies are easy to install, just plug & play, but my number plate is a difficult fit and other riders have told me that the lighting isn't that clear. I reckon I'll change over to the Analog one pretty soon.
That really stands out. Very nice indeed. Not normally a fan of brown / tan seats, but that just works.
Wow, looking really good for its age. Just goes to show what a little TLC can do for our older machines. My 01 Ducati is in a similar condition.
Proud new owner of one of the last 2024 Thruxton RS's before they were all gone. Still waiting to get my fairing in. But here she is with some immediate mods I put on her. View attachment Thruxton Mist (sm).jpg
Finally extracted by thumb and fitted the clip ons & fairing. Love the lower bars, now it feels like a racer:
I've had this sickle for quite a while now. '18 S. Bought it new. Recently had some of the engine bits, and the BC drag pipes cerakoated. Yesterday I replaced the bar-ends with the black version (not pictured). Not done yet, but closing in. Heh.
Love how your blacked out your black Thruxton. Doing the same with mine. What is the brake lever you have on yours?
Thanks, the brake and clutch levers are "ASV F3 Series Sport Clutch and Brake Levers - Thruxton 1200, Short".
