Hi. I am in the process of buying a 2004 Thunderbird Sport. Can anyone recommend a centre stand for it. I have contacted Fowlers who indicate they are discontinued and a triumph parts specialist has indicated they do not do one due to the routing of the exhaust. I have seen some on ebay for silly money. Thanks
Hi Duckj, and welcome in Wrong type of Thunderbird for me but hopefully someone will be along shortly to help you out
Duckj You see one on ebay then you should buy it as they are like you say obsolete now. Or try Sprint manufacturing or Triumphant or triumph spares. Ask buyer a question sometimes gets a discount as this time of year not much is moving. Welcome to the family aswel. Sorry I can't help more. Do let us all see the steed by hitting the upload a file button bottom right corner and let us see the steed. Make sure it is a sport version they are selling as it stands slightly taller. Ride Safe & Enjoy Joe.
Thanks. I have checked with them and apparently there is an issue with the positioning of the balance pipe to my model which makes fitting difficult so they don't do one. Other thunderbird models they do for £212 and I have seen one on ebay second hand for £275. I recall I saw a centrestand for a sport on ebay a few weeks ago for £400! I think I will stick to a paddock stand.
@dilligaf is selling this if your budget will stretch https://www.thetriumphforum.com/threads/hydraulic-workbench.21698/
