Hey ATKpilot Your bike is the spitting image of mine with all the plastics and the little Triumph badge missing off the top of the radiator cowl!...Laminar Lip looks very nice but how solidly is it mounted, Is it easy to remove and if removed will there be unsightly holes left in my cowl? :hammer:
Furque, if my bike is the spitting image of yours then you must have an absolutely gorgeous bike :-D
The lip is mounted with this mongo strong double stick tape.
I know it sounds weird but this is some serious $hit. Make sure you clean the area where the tape sticks with alcohol and put it on when it's warm out and let it sit over night. I have had this bike up to (insert serious law breaking speed here) many times and it will not budge. The lip has a unique design that allows some air to pass under a little opening in the front that equalizes the pressure to some degree. You can also bolt it on but I didn't see the need. I have had it on for almost a year and no issues in both very hot and cold temps. You can remove the lip, but you really have to want it off.
As for the Rad cowl's, I have had that little badge sitting in my desk drawer for the last year and finally put it on right after I took that pic. Not sure if I going to leave it on though.
