    Do a hand count of owners and potential owners of nw R3s, then, when dilligaf starts designing things he can do a production run and possibly charge not much more than Triumph for Bespoke accessories!

    You’ve got no chance :eek:
    I’ve been giving this a lot of thought and although the Triumph stuff is over priced :mad: it is very clever and very well made :)
    I have no chance of casting aluminium and the triumph stuff is just not adaptable :(
    So I’m gonna have an almost total redesign of the back end of my R3R :eek:
    It’s gonna be a helluva project and will take a lot of hard work and swearing to get where I want to be :confused:
    But what I’m hoping to achieve is a bike that will do everything that I require :cool:

    Well I’m disappointed mate, always looking for an opportunity and I thought I was on a safe bet here. Ah well back to the drawing board....

    I wasn’t thinking about cast Ali, more MDF, plastic, cardboard and maybe, just a little leather to give it that dilligaf quality look.

    From what I’ve seen of your rigs over my time on the forum, Dilli, maybe you need to design a detachable combo sidecar/trailer for your Rocket to suit your motorcycling needs! ;):blush:

    It would be more like Thunderbird two, "what pod do we fit today" a whole row of attachments Dilli just backs the bike into the one most suitable :D

    A custom fiberglass seat form covered with padding and leather. Glass isn't that hard to work with especially if it's hidden from view and can be less than perfect.

    Agreed , overpriced. 315$ for the little mini bag for the triumph bobber, it is only rated for 2.5 pounds. So it can hold a water bottle and a phone but thats pushing it...
