    What are those four 6mm tapped holes for (two each side into the top frame tubes) under the seat of my new T120 Black? I was thinking of fabricating a pair of side bars for my throw-over panniers and using those holes to fit them.
    Thanks

    If they are near the rear suspension they can be used for attaching grab rails indicator relocation brackets and accessories like that, I have em on my old Thrux. Post a photo to be more exact

    Oh right different to what I thought! Probably for pannier side bars. Someone with more knowledge than me will be on. Everyone?

    It's for the mounting of the Triumph panniers:

    That would explain it then. Thanks Ralphy.
