    I think you are right but such is the attention to detail, I suspect it's deliberate.

    They possibly won't fit if oriented the other way up ! I have similar style rear shocks on my 09 America , and they clash , the reservoirs hit ! Chain guard on the right and the brake caliper bracket on the left ! On this bike might be hitting the frame ??

    That is lovely. Regarding the shocks, if they are like the Hagons I have fitted on my V7 then they can go either way up! :)

    The bike looks so good with those spoked wheels! They should be on the Triumph Genuine Accessories catalogue.

    @SleepyOwl Can you post the original Instagram link or account? I want to see if the owner/builder has published anything about what was done to the bike - like where they got the seat, for starters. ;)

    Google Images results only shows this thread.

    Some more custom paint jobs; "Venom Yellow" and "Phantom Black"; with spoked Thruxton wheels.
