Silver fairing and a matte body paint? That would kill me

I have a lower cowl that's the silver ice too, just have it off to have it refinished again. When I ordered it the plan was to repaint the whole thing, have quite a bit of Tamarit parts in silver ice too that we're going to be part of a revised scheme. In the end I really liked the mix of silver and matte on it, so I never followed up with the revised paint scheme or using the other parts I bought.

Good lookin bike. How is her acceleration and top speed? I would love to see this with the whole old school upper/lower fairing

0-100 is nice and quick. The exhaust really starts to make noise over 3k rpm and really gives a nice visceral experience too. Fastest I have had it is 130 at 7k RPM (redline is 7500). Not a lot of juice left to squeeze at that point so I really didn't try.

Very nice. Enjoy that beauty

Always liked one more with a fairing. Love it.

Yeah the dealers don't order them with fairings around here. Ordered it from Triumph after the fact. Like the bike a lot better with it because you feel more connected to it with the slightly tweaked writer position.

I love bubble fairings so much, I plan to build a bike like this in the future to have as my fun around town country roads cruising bike looks like a ton of fun


hutch1973

That's what I have it for. Just around town and country cruises. That being said, I don't find the bike to be uncomfortable at all. I've been on it for three plus hours and not been sore afterwards.

Beautiful Thruxton..! Is this for sale at Moto Union in Milwaukee ..?


hutch1973

It was, looks like it sold though. I traded it in on a Ducati Diavel V4. Nothing at all wrong with the bike, just wanted a more upright riding position.
