Thruxton High Risers Plus Fairing: Any Pics?

I just picked up my new Thruxton RS with the ultra-low clip-ons and the fairing already installed but I also learned here, that you can run the bike without issues with the ‘standard risers’.

My question is: Does anyone have a picture of the bike with high risers AND fairing installed?
Did not find anything in the www...

Maybe someone can help?

Thanks and greetings, Daniel.

 

Hi!

I was talking about these:



They are the standard ones on the Thruxton when she is delivered WITHOUT the fairing.
But I have several reports from the forum and a confirmation from my dealer that you can put the fairing on without lowering these!

Mine look like this right now:



So they are about another 2 inches lower and on the same level as the adjustment screws for the front fork!

And I am curious about how the standard ones look WITH the fairing. I don’t want to mess up the design...

 

One more thing I learned yesterday from the dealer: if you install the high bars with the fairing, the bike is not roadworthy anymore according to the regulations. Which is probably the reason, why Triumph does not officially advertise the option.
At least here in Germany. Don‘t know about UK or elsewhere...

So I will see during the next couple of weeks how the low bars work out for me. I‘d actually prefer to leave them, as they are.

 

So I found what I was looking for and I‘d like to share it with anyone, who joined this thread:



That does not look bad at all, don‘t you think?

 

My decision is made: I will fit the risers as well! It does not disturb the looks of the bike at all and adds quite some comfort to the ride at low speeds.

 

Beautiful color, Mr. Kiwidave!

 

So the higher clip-ons were installed yesterday.

And today I did my first little ride-out.
Verdict?
Now this bike does not only look absolutely fantastic, no: It also is a sheer pleasure to ride (at ANY speed).
I only stopped for fuel. Not for aching wrists...
And it is only two inches. If you think about it, it does not seem like much, but it makes all the difference.

@steve lovatt , I think in this aspect, you really can compare the NineT Racer with the higher “AC Schnitzer” risers to the Thruxton RS with fairing AND standard risers (which I have installed now!).

I have not made any pics yet, but will post them asap...

Sum-up: Absolutely great improvement.

 

Tony, I guess the blood-circulation to your hands is somewhere disrupted... I only got a tingling sensation in the tips of my fingers, which is a similar indication, but my hands never went numb.
Are those the barrel-style grips, you installed? Do you think they helped?

Anyway; before you invest a lot of money to raise the clips, you should do a test ride on a standard Thruxton (R, RS, doesn’t matter).
It cost me 320,-€ to install the high-risers and for me, it was worth every penny, but you should be sure before dishing the money out...

Cheers, Daniel

 

Today, I finally took the time to stop and take some pictures with the high risers installed...
Enjoy.
