    Thanks, been biking since "74" and never had a triumph FFS what's that all about, the build quality is second to none, easily comparable with the Japs and Krouts

    I rembered wrong, was £50 for 2.
    I dropped mine in petrol station half a mile from my house first time riding it the day after fitting them, scuffed 2 of them which I will get around to replacing once I’ve got everything else fitted I want.

    You could keep an eye out for some used black sets on eBay.

    Do they recommend dropping the forks in the yokes to match?

    Funny enough - I saw a pair of boots on the Sportsbikeshop website which had a "cork sole" for added height for shorter riders. Wish I'd known - being a bit short in the leg, I could have bought the Tiger, rather than the ST! Your pic is way cooler though - you'd certainly make an entrance!
