Straight swap?

Looks nice! - to save me from going down the garage to compare, is it a straight swap for the Thruxton (I have an 04 model) ie can we still use the OEM dash with it? did you notice any handling improvements?
Thx

Nice, but I don't thnk the factory is going to be all that keen on the use of their trademarked Hinckley logo. They should have just used their own logo ala NCR.

Pretty much a straight swap.
I think they need to change the pintch bolts to to the other side.
The bolt holes for the Dash is one size larger from stock.
besides these issues It went on easily.
Taking her out tomorrow for test ride. I'll report back.
I do not anticipate much as it is just the top tree and it more bling then performance.

That is a beautiful triple tree. I would have taken it one step further and polished it.

Mar,

You ever see a stock top triple tree stripped and polished to a mirror finish? Absolutely magnificent! Were it not so cold, I'd pull a bike out and snap a pic.

I'd like to see that Italian clamp anodized gloss black with their own logo engraved/etched (as I said, ala NCR).

Yes I see one every time I ride my thruxton. I polished mine when I converted my forks over to F3 forks. I also polished the clip ons and fork sliders.
