Bonnie customisation

Nice video, came as a suprise as it's very well laid out

 

Hi and welcome to the forum.
I have an 04 T100 and have already changed the bars and am in the process of changing the indicators and rear light. Got my bars on ebay - they are LSL 1" Harley bars (according to the advert) - 27" wide and with only a 2" rise as opposed to 29" and 5" rise of the stock bars, so maybe the sort of thing you are looking for. Have ordered a set of Thruxton cats eye indicators in black with rear location brackets to fit off the top of the shocks and a front relocation bracket to fit behind the regulator. Have a Lucas rear light to replace the "starship" nonsense at the back! I also bought front and rear mudguards from a Scrambler - not quite cafe racer style, but I prefer the shorter look to the stock ones (but these need to be spayed yet).
Got the Scrambler shocks while I was at it, which are 20mm longer than stock Bonnie ones. They apparently sharpen the handling without wrecking stability at speed, although with my limited experience I haven't noticed too much difference, but for me the extra height is better with a pillion passenger and the bike feels more stable. (centre stand still works and its a doddle to put the bike on it now - but you need a bit of wood under it to enable back wheel to rotate).

 

Sorry Edl , meant to post a couple of pics of the bars for you.

 

Great video.

I've just done a full strip down and custom rebuild of a 2008 T100

 

It's taken several months and I'm nearly there. Learnt lots on the way. Happy to discuss and help if I can. I've practically rebuilt the whole bike and cost wise it's been really quite good. There's a big mkt out there for second hand bonny parts and an even bigger mkt for custom parts.

Regards

Simon

 

very smart
