Hey guys, my buddy has a new t100 and is looking to swap his mid controls for some thruxton rearsets. I just got done doing the same thing on my Bonnie with another member, if you've thought about it let me know, it's actually super easy to do, and the thruxton Isn't affected at all. It's a straight swap. I'd have no problem helping out anyone interested. Thanks guys.
Hi,
YES! im interested in pics of this :Need pics:
I was led to believe that this swap was difficult on Bonnies with the T100 Hotdog style mufflers? is this the case?
Thanks
The brake side does interfere with the stock mufflers on a Bonnie, that is correct. However, Most people interested in putting rearsets on their Bonnie have already swapped that exhaust out. I try to get some photos up later today. There are ways around the tight fit, and there is also a good blog that helps go into detail. Check out "keefs Bonnie page." Just type that in your search bar and it should pop up.
Couldn't find the original photo of the Thruxton parts I put on my bike, but these are all of the parts needed to do the swap on both sides. The bonneville will have clearance issues with the stock exhaust. You can shim out the exhaust and make it work, but aftermarket exhaust, which most of us have, makes it a simple 10 minute swap. First time trying to post photos, dont really have it figured out yet, sorry about that.
Thanks for that, the T100 could definitely do with some better looking pegs! But I must say the appeal of the T100 mufflers and the fenders steers me away from the Thruxton. So I guess when I get a Bonnie Ill deal with them!
I'm looking for some Bonnie or scrambler mid controls if anybody is interested in my thruxton rear sets. Pm me if interested.
I live in San Diego if anybody would like to do the swap locally.
I'm also looking to swap for Bonnie or Scrambler mid-controls if anybody is interested in a swap. I've got a 2012 Thruxton. I live in Atlanta if anybody would like to do the swap locally. PM if you're interested.
I have an 04 Thruxton and am interested in swapping. Anyone out there I am in Central Missouri and my bike is on my lift in my shop. Happy to pull and ship. Would send photos in interested
Remember folks, if you have a T100 and want thruxton rearsets, you also need to go to thruxton headers. Many posts here, but nothing about the header pipe fouling issue was mentioned....
i have a 2012 thruxton and looking too swap rearmost for mid controls
