Well You might have guessed already.

Power Bronze carbon look hugger (current)
Had rear shock rebuilt re-valved re gassed and re oiled (made a vast improvement for not many bucks, RAD Shockies Brisbane)

Hey -- I got an '07 Sprint ST and have recently done three things to give a different look.

> Carbon Hugger (obvious good thing)
> Dark tint screen (Eagle Screens in Australia)...looks GREAT on red bike.
> I took off rear muffler piece and got chromed...cheap'ish thing that looks good from behind.

I ex V-Rod rider so needed SOME chrome on me new stead.....

Don't know what next!!!

How could I forget
It was not first but probably saved me the most dosh

Oil cooler and radiator grill guards

The oil cooler one had a BIG dent in it last week - it flattenned out nicely, but I hate to think what damage it might have done !

I remember that day like it was yesterday (actually about 2 months ago)

I handed the stealer all my cash and a brand new RED 1050 ST was waiting for me.

The stealer walked me ever so slowly over to where all the Triumph accessories were and I gazed at them like a kid in a kandy store.

In a low and concerning voice the stealer leaned over to me and said "Poddy, Triumph can make you and your bike look great and I think the for you this is the first thing you should buy." Never before had I seen such a sight; it was bright, well made and gave the bike a feeling I thought was never possible.

INSURANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
