    Love the seat and cowl, @Thruccy Sean. What the story on it??

    The seat is from Tamarit motorcycles in Spain. It’s lovely but was stupidly pricey and then the import fees didn’t help either …

    Anyway the cowl/seat are all 1 part. It really holds you in place especially when accelerating quickly which is something I’d forgotten about after riding with a flat seat for so long.

    Thanks, Sean. I just looked up Tamarit motorcycles and the seats they offer. They are so cool. But, yes, quite pricey. It helps that the cowl and seat are one part and the price includes both.

    I had a 2012 Thruxton and then traded that for a 2016 Thruxton RS. I had a Wilder Factory compartment seat on each of them. Pretty ingenious way to add a bit of storage. I know you have a seat already but here's info on those seats for anyone else following this thread who may be interested.

    The same happened on my 2019 TTr. Dealer replaced it under warranty.

    @steve lovatt it would seem to be a problem ;);)

    lastride.jpg Very probably my last ride out of the season on the Thruxton as I'll be SORNing it tomorrow. Shame I couldn't go too far as the fuel farce is still in force around here, although there are several local filling stations that do have fuel now. I just can't be arsed to queue up for something I can drive/ride straight in for next week.

    Good question,
    It was on the bike when I bought it - the only thing I know is that its a Corbin (and it's pretty comfy).

    Have made a few changes with more to come the first ones were easy . New silencers . Wrapped headers . Black clock gauges . Engine protectors. Led indicators . New levers although after a clumsy mistake I snapped the new genuine Triumph clutch lever so opted for some cheaper eBay ones that actually don’t look to bad. New black gauges . Phone mount from Thornton hundred . Almost forgot the tail tidy . I’m hoping over the winter to remove some of the silver/aluminium parts and ceramic cost these black ..

    Got the right bike but wrong color :) - I changed it from red to pearl white and added new gas tank decals. Whatcha think?

    trying to look the Old Rocker but only succeeding in the Old Bloke on a Triumph category. Coming up to my 4th year of ownership and I still love it.

    Some pictures of my Silver Sinner with the Tamarit seat. The seat is beautiful and comfortable!

    Hiya just clocked your supercharger
    How does the supercharger compare to standard? I’ve not seen one on a Thruxton outside of Triumph factory uk.

    Nice supercharger not seen one since 2016 when they first came out. The only thing it won't go past is a petrol station, but great fun, enjoy.
