Hi, Have owned my commander for 12 months now and would like to know if anyone can recommend any after market pipes, ie slips on etc ...also will the bike need re mapping...any issues...etc etc Appreciate your help Cheers Ronny
Triumph do there own. Quite often turn up on eBay as well. A quick search on eBay showed 69 items for mine. Most were OEM Triumph so worth a look there. May need remapping. Prices ranged from £49 to £249 depending on how new they were. Brand spankers costing more of course
http://foranexhaust.com.au/Custom_Gallery.aspxHere are some links that may help. I guess it'll depend on how much you want to spend.... http://www.thetriumphforum.co.uk/threads/de-catting-the-storm-dave-platt-bypass.5163/ http://williamfaulkner.co.uk/2013/07/triumph-thunderbird-cat-bypass-pipes/ Dave Platt ebay page - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRIUMPH-T...876268?hash=item3f7260a62c:g:fpYAAOSwmrlUzylS Cat bypass pipe - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRIUMPH-T...hash=item3f723c7476:m:msW7iy_YersKj-aLQDpGVBA Shipping might be a bit pricey to Perth though from UK. You have Foran Exhausts and Staintune in Aus though and I think a few others.
Hi v8dve and Ronny, I have forans on my 08 America, they sound great and you'll avoid the international freight. If the mufflers are very free flowing/open yes you will need to "tune" adjust the fueling ! There a tuning shops in Perth that will do the work, some via power commander some via direct plug into the bikes "ecu" . Dave how did you go with the risers ? Cheers Mick (capt)
Hello everyone Note: The Thunderbird Commander set up is fundamentally different ( to the ABS/Storm/1600/1700 ). The cats are either in the headers...and or...including a slightly different header length on the RH side...I have found references to this on various open chat forums but no clear strategy So gathering up everything I can find about the Thunderbird Commander it looks like UK options may include: 1. Hogslayers 2. Vance and Hines Has the 'different RH/LH side length issue been sorted yet ? Note for the UK brutal import duty from America...I got caught out on that recently...so any suggestions there appreciated But more importantly: Can anyone advise as to a straight forward cat by-pass kit for the Commander ? ( The Thunderbird Storm kit will not work ) Thanks in advance and best regards Jim ( The original Jimster )
