Hello, I'm new here. I've been lurking for a while and decided to say hi. I'm a Ducati rider normally but have decided to build myself a custom Bonneville. I guess you'll see me in the build section soon
Cheers Right now I don't own the bike, I have about £3.5k to get the donor, I want black engine and wire wheels but otherwise and fairly loose as the tank will get paint along with the front mudguard, and the rest will get ditched. If I have to wait to save another grand I'll do that, but I'd like to have the bike before Christmas so I have enough tome to build it ready for the Spring. Shout if you see anything First mod will be airbox, filters, and new pipes (I'll need advice on pipes that are legal but minimal). I'll have the paint being done whilst I do that, and then the clips ons, new seat, fender eliminators, new clocks, new light etc will all go on over time. I really can't wait, I've wanted to do this for so long and then I suddenly realised life is short, so what am I waiting for
Hi Fingerpuk, Good luck with the build. I have a friend in Essex that builds Choppers . I will ask him if he knows of anywhere that does Triumph custom parts for you. Will also keep an eye out for what your looking for
Hi Fingerpuk, squaredeals import some BC stuff from the states, britishbikebits do parts and and tec have bits
Hi Fingerpuk, sounds like a nice little project you're kicking off, lets have loads of pic's to drool over
Cheers everyone, this seems like a friendly place I'm getting my parts list together, it's going to get expensive. I'm hoping import duties don't clobber me. From BC I'll be getting a seat, tail tidy, front and rear turn signals. I need to source a new single clock and bracket, figure out where to put the number plate, and work out the smallest legal exhaust I can get away with. I'll be ordering the parts before I find the bike so they are here ready. I'm looking for a T100 and think I'll blow my budget by £2k. My cheap mod is going to be a really expensive mod!
