Remember some of my earlier posts? All along, my objective was to change the RIII riding posture from that of a cruiser (feet forward) to that of a roadster (feet down) without going to a café racer crouch (feet backward), while gaining as much cornering clearance as possible.
All-inclusive, "Roadster" relocation kit now developed by Basset, the Geneva canton Triumph dealer, and road-tested by yours truly!
Features: Pegs moved back 30 cm (11.8 inches) and up about 1 cm (.4 inch). More importantly, in terms of banking angles, peg tip- to- peg tip bike width reduced by 6 cm (2.4 inches)
(Note: this is not an adjustable set-up).
Overall OEM fit and look preserved.
Contents: Custom-made, re-contoured steel undercarriage tubing, brake pedal and brake cylinder, gear lever mechanism, etc. plus all the necessary little bits and pieces. Takes an average wrench less than a couple of hours to install (or to remove, as there is no permanent alteration to the OEM configuration)
Tentative price ex-works: CHF 1'100.- or EUR 710.- or USD 880. -, all inclusive. Plus freight of course. Add approx. 40% for chrome-plated (versus standard glossy black-painted) undercarriage tubing.
Availability: 2 to 3 weeks.
Genuinely interested? Send me a PM with your full ID and home address (I speak English, French, Italian and some German). I'll mail you pics and a firm quote to your destination, incl. freight, if you want one. Eventual payment via inter-bank transfer to Basset
PS. I have NO commercial or financial interest whatsoever in this initiative.
