What Would You Change On Your Triumph Motorcycle?

I think the addition of a supercharger would be a nice change....

 

20 BHP would be nice and you would think a Brembo rear should be standard on the R None of the other things bother me.

 

Cruise Control would be good, otherwise maybe higher bars, I've lifted mine 20mm and it makes it a lot more comfortable to ride.

 

Reduce wieght by about 20kg!!

 

They should employ an Italian designer and get him to sort out the headlight surround! When it first came out I thought it looked hideous but they have grown on me since ive had mine, but still not totally bowled over with the look of the front fairing from a side view..would like to see a 1200 speed triple if not maybe 20/30 more bhp for the 1050 ..but overall I love the bike and I think if your on the heavy side like me the seat is great!

 

On my Tiger I would ideally like :

1. 30kgs less weight

and that would be it !!!

Yes I know, there could be a way to lose the 'combined' weight of rider and bike, but I like me chips too much

 

I like me 2016 speed triple and it does everything very well and ticks alot of boxes for me, but having come from superbikes it just lacks that one thing for me ..............taking you to planet insanity in a blink of an eye if it had another 30 ponies it would be just the ticket for me. oh and cruise control never thought about that but that could be handy occasionally.

 

I'm very happy with mine, more power... yes that's always welcome and a hydraulic clutch! Ditch the cable!!

 

Diet?

 

tried that...still got the belly!

 

Led lights and slightly more power mainly more torque and lighter wheels again. what's an oat indicator ?

 

Headlights on my 2010 Speed Triple... they are the correct shape (oh yes they are!) but pretty crap for brightness!

 

On my Bonnie EFI
1) Suitable suspension back & front
(Virtually everyone has to upgrade from rock hard suspension.)
2) Rear brake caliper mounted sensibly on the top of the swinging arm as opposed to underneath where it catches all the shite.
3) centre stand fitted as standard (instead of £170 OEM part)
4) Secondary air intake optional for U.K. Bikes
(Virtually everyone removes it and it would reduce the new cost price, maybe swap it for the centre stand)
5) Sensibly sized or positioned silencers that do not need removing to undo/remove the rear wheel spindle.
6) Don't particularly like the aesthetics of the single speedo.
Either fit a rev counter as standard to balance it up or put the speedo in the middle with x2 warning lights on each side to balance it out.
7) Ignition key would be better placed in the clock area instead of bouncing about on the headlamp bracket.
(Work it in with no. 6 suggestion)

Still love my Bonnie though and I am working through the list.

 

- I'd love to see a speed triple factory edition with wire spoke wheels (at least until it's time to CLEAN said wheels)

- Proper cornering ABS

- Less weight / more power, of course

- Re-style the headlight (LED) and move it closer in and lower (there's a reason the street triple bracket mod is so popular). Also attach it to the fork legs/triple clamps

 

Been watching this thread for quite a while, so had plants of time to think on this.

1. Tank capacity increased by 3 or 4 litres.

2. The front flyscreen should've been designed to at least LOOK like it fits on top of the lights. Not too difficult for the bottom of the screen to follow the line of the headlights, but it seems it was. Poor effort.

3. Gearbox quite 'agricultural' for a 2015 bike. Always thought so but magnified since I've had a ride on a mates rice burner.

That's it really, so they haven't done too badly.

The rider!, slimmer, fitter and possibly better looking, tho that would be hard!

 

Hi Bob, is that some reference to Doctor Who or Star Trek ?

 

The one thing that bugs me is the heated grip button. Is my left thumb really that big???
How about one of the integrated ones.
And some fold down stabilisers for walking pace manoeuvres would be great
