In pic # 7 I wouldn't mind knowing the ins and outs of how that digitech (?) display was installed on the Rocket.

I always liked this design,i bet if Triumph fitted their exhaust like this their sales would "sky rocket"

They are modified Performance Machine brand .. I'm pretty sure anyway mate.

Yep, Performance Machine...i love there stuff. ah, i should mention, the actual pegs are Arlen ness to match the Grips though.

So many modded bikes still run the stock header.

Maybe like us they have tried and failed to have custom headers made .. and just given up. Know that it seems to be a frustrating and seemingly futile task. Few of the Owners have looked into it and as far I know OzRider (Les) and Benny P are the only ones in Oz that have had a win.

I was just being a bit picky and referring to the bar positioning, not their quality.
The height and pull back look to me to possibly be quite a lot for hard performance riding.
The motor is truly a beauty and surely a comfy ride. I'm also pretty sure that I'd look better riding it than Ponters.

PS: Thanks TC - I looked up that Performance machine.
Now I know where Ponters' cool pegs & controls came from.

Yeah bars look a lot higher and wider as well as a lot further back but surprisingly not a huge difference to stock bars with rivco risers. they are actually a little narrower, and slightly further back than Ideal for serious punting but I find it the perfect balance of comfort for cruising and wide enough to squat into when leaning forward.

Some of you big fellas would find it too relaxed though, I'm sure.

There is NO such thing as too relaxed!
Would you mind telling the name and model of yours.
I could not find them on the Performance Machine web.
REALLY like your kick-ass foot controls! Were they much to install?
