Hello......Is there anyone out there? I've had loads of replies on the Triumph rat site...... on this site NIL! Hello ....Is there anyone out there? wildhenry,
Hi, Seriously folks, has anyone put some chrome wider bars on a T100 ( 1 inch/25mm bars) like the "western" ones or Scrambler style ones and done so without any mods like longer control cables,hoses or wiring? Thanks
I bought a pair from Custom Fastners, standard traditional semi straight bars, they are about 840 wide. I had no problems with cables and the position is brilliant, they were around £47 , have a look .
Thanks for that...is this the bar you got ...any pic available?? BAR102 Standard Bars (1" diameter, no wiring dimples) New These 1" diameter standard style bars measure 33" wide, 21/2" rise, 5" pullback with 9" centre width. Price: £37.50 Also did you get new Triumph grips ( cost £?) or can the origional ones come off easily,don`t want to muck them up so I can return the bike to stock if needed. Great info,thanks!
Hi, Yes they are the ones, I had a problem getting the original grips off but I had already purchased a pair of traditional Triumph lookalikes from Burton Bike Bits here's the thread, they really look the part Beston GT Handlebar Grips 1" - Universal Motorcycles - New Bonneville Parts. I have a photo , but I'm not too sure how to post but I'll have a go. If it doesn't work send me your email address and I will send it. The seat came from Burtons as well. Best of luck Ross Marshall
Great info and pic,thanks! I have just ordered the bars and a Triumph LHS grip for £8.Some have suggested using hairspray to remove the grip. Have a small no scratching tool and open the grip at the in board end and squirt with hairspray, then ease a little at a time while it is still liquid,keep doing this until it is off. I got a Thruxton seat with my 2013 ( ex demo) T100, but your seat does look better with the trim and gold logo.Does it give you anymore leg room,ie is it higher than stock? Martin, CR2
