    Hi guys
    Being one of the few with a dual seat on my R, I wanted a grab rail for her in doors, Triumph told me they did not do one and had no plans to do one although they sold me one and even had a part number on my invoice, this was about 12 months ago. By the time I relised they were not doing one I already had the bike so could not change model. Anyway long story short I contacted Renntec who were going to produce one and nearly have one ready.
    My dealership was looking for something totally unrelated and found the grab rail, ordered it and I had it fitted last week, they come in black anthricite and I think crome.
    So much for Hinkley saying they had no plans to make one, I think someone has had a word with them, has its not a good idea having a dual seat option without the means for the passenger to grab hold of something.
    Will post a picture if anyone is interested.

    Hepco &Becker make a nice but pricey luggage rack/ grab rail. I got tired of looking like a child with a rucksack on my back. They are superbly made and mount to the already threaded holes on the subframe under the seat.
