Looking to get rid of my stock Bonnie headlight bracket in favor of a more cafe looking one. Does anyone have any experience with anything like these? The price is right, and I hope they will look cool.

Never seen those before, but for $15 it may be worth a try. I got these brackets.
They are very nice. Whichever way you go, you will need to get the signal bracket from triumph for your blinkers.

TCL,your fork legs are 41mm.I think trying to re-radius them to fit will misalign the mounting bolt holes. :???:

Thanks Rod. That was a question I have had and have been too lazy to scour the whole shop manual in search of the fork dimensions.

Man, those are cool, but they are proud of those things. Not cheap. Thanks for the link

I don't think those eBay brackets will fit very well. They're intended for 33mm Hondas and 35mm Triumphs. Even if you could bend them to fit 41mm tubes, they still may be too short to fit the 7" Bonneville headlight shell.
