Thruxton Post your Thruxton pics here

First round of changes to the Thruxton R.
Ditch the stock turns and fender for some motogadget LEDs and a the New Rage Cycles tail tidy

 

Hi Olaf,

Yes, it is a custom paint job from new, called volcanic orange.

Never thought I would ever buy an orange bike, Jotas excepted, but I really liked it.

Cheers

 

Love the back end tail tidy, not sure we’d get away with it in the UK though

 

Fitted my new leather seat with gel pad. It's like sitting on a comfortable chesterfield. Really like the way it's turned out. Got my new bar end mirrors fitted too

 

Nice seat.....

 

The seat looks lovely, does it feel higher, I have the comfort seat and really don’t like it

 

No it doesn't feel any higher, cost an extra £80 for the gel insert, it really is comfortable. Only problem is it's a little slippery when I've got my jeans on. Hoping just to being so new.

 

Who made it, it does look really decent job

Guys name is Matt, I'd personally recommend him, he will do what ever design and material you want, I wanted black leather with the red diamond stitching. He's got a face book page and all the feedback is excellent. He's going to do my new CCM flat tracker seat

 

What was the total cost for the seat mate, I do have a standard one he can cover with the gel pack.
It’s the only thing about the bike I don’t get on with max 60 miles and I’m in pain

 

He took my standard seat and recovered in the leather with the gel insert it was £280 total,
My standard seat wasn't to uncomfortable and was only got have it done in leather, which would have been 200. But opted for the gel pad whilst it was being done, can't tell you how comfortable it is now.

 

Sold, I’m calling Matt tomorrow, cheers bud

 

I don’t know whether my arse just doesn’t suit the Thruxton, but I’ve never been so uncomfortable as far as the arse is concerned, strange but true

 

Mention my name, I'm hoping to get some discount on my CCM seat lol.

Regards
Paul

 

Will do, one of my pals has the CCM scrambler fully loaded and he loves it

 

There all nice, but I do prefer the FT6

 

Yep I think CCM have done a cracking job with the designs of all models, I’m jelous

 

Anyone know where the Thruxton sat nav thread is? Can’t find it anywhere and wanted to see how the ball mount worked out! Cheers chaps!

 

Anyone know what size these bolts are??? Are they M6 or M8...? I can find both online!

 

I thought they are m5 capbolts
