    R3R Thunderbird hybrid

    I have been slowly modifying my R3R, Ruby. Triumph have designed a fantastic bike, but for me all that torque makes me want a better riding position. To that end I have changed the seating position and handlebars resulting in a much more upright riding position. The bike has been transformed...

    Schwabenmax Special Model KHG-T3.0 Quick Throttle Adapter - Triumph, Thunderbird, Rocket, Thruxton, Bonneville

    I just bought one, but they only seem to list one at a time in Aussie $ or Euros on different eBays. They have listed, sold and re-listed these before. As one sells like mine he cancels the other currency listing. Aussies have to pay a flat 10% GST on item and postage. Some listings include in...

    New Thunderbird

    Is there any new or updated info on a new model T/bird? I heard something about the name and engine size had been re registered with some US dept which suggested another may be on the way. Im hoping it will be as eye catching as the new R3

    Risers: OEM vs Thunderbird vs Rivco

    I finally found a set of Rivco risers and compared the rise and pull back of the three. The Rivco is about 1/2”” more rise than the Thunderbird risers. When on the top yolk they are actually the same lift, but move the bars that 1/2” closer to the rider. I went for a ride this evening to test...

    Thunderbird Sissy Bar And Rack On A Roadster...with Pics

    So, I bought the factory sissy bar and rack for the Roadster and after getting it all mounted up I stepped back and looked at it. :( The side brackets were too wide for the sissy bar...the tubing was square (I think it's the only square parts on the bike)...and that pad was a joke. There had to...

    Thunderbird storm top speed in 1st, 2nd, 3rd.

    Out today and decided I would find out the top speed in 1st gear and after that I decided to do 2nd and 3rd also. First topped out at 50mph which I thought was pretty good for a cruiser (tall 1st for a cruiser). Second was 75 hit the rev limiter at 6,500. Third was 97. Not bad as it pulls well...
