Hey guys...this is my first (of my own) bike. I have ridden many of sport bikes and harley's, but have always love the cafe racer style. I came across this '06 Thruxton and just couldn't pass it up. It had just 970 miles on it when and I got it and it was very well taken care of. I absolutely love this bike and the attention it gets!

Below are some pics...I think my first mod will be making the exhaust a little louder and some bar end mirrors. Thanks for looking and look forward to hangin with everyone.

In no way am I saying that you need to modify anything, but if you feel the need, I hope these cheap mods head you down the right path. Enjoy.

Welcome to the fold, mate. It's great to see that you got an 06 with such few miles. The fun factor of our beloved Brit iron only improves with time. There's a great deal of great information on this site. You may also want to check out the New Triumph Bonneville Forum (aka NTBF) as well. Cheers.

Very nice bike. Welcome to the group. You will find that whatever you think you might want to do to the bike, it will never be a done project. There will always be more that you find you "need".
