TOR Question
Opening my self here for criticism, but TOR does stand for Triumph Off Road?

Where are some good place I can look at prices for these for an 07 Thrux?

TOR does stand for Triumph off road. Good all around set of mufflers; loud enough but not too loud. Do yourself a favor and get a uni filter or a K&N and some jets along with the TORs. And if you havn't done so already ditch the AI (air injection.) You will not regret it, it really "wakes up" the bike. You can get the jets from Newthruxton.com along with the air filter. Check out the JenksBolts tuning page, it is a HUGE help for the do it yourselfer. To answer your question, you can the TORs from your local dealer. They should have a set in stock. Happy tuning.

I just got a set from a member on here used for around $160. I love the pipes, now my bike sounds like a bike instead of a lawnmower.

Thank you for the responses. Follow up;

Can I replace the stock mufflers with TORS without jet work and/or removing the AI? I am comfortable with performance of the bike right now as I am still pretty new on the paved roads with 2 wheels.

I really want to get a nice throaty/low grumble out of my bike,

You should go up to 112mains with the TORs but you can also run them with stock jetting . Might be a tad lean but okay.

I'm not sure you will get this from a set of TOR's. You will with Predators.

I need to find some folks with TORs or Preds in Indianapolis... I have watched some of the YouTube and AOL videos with these pipes. I have also heard the Emgo's They all sound like dirt bikes to me on the video.

Need to take my ass to the dealer one day and hope some folks show up with the variety of pipes so I can hear them in person... Or just take my ass to Indianapolis Motor Speedway one day in the next two weeks. Bound to be many Triumphs there.
