Talking Still Kinda new

Hello everyone!
Im still kinda new here and just wanted to introduce myself and ask a few questions of the experienced members or anyone who has some good advice.
I bought a used '03 bonneville T100 in June and have been racking up the miles. I'm new to motorcycles and absolutley in love with my bonnie. I ride daily when its dry or mostly dry (not a big fan of serious rain until I have a better wet weather gear getup).
My bonnie came to me in great condition with 4500 on the odo and TORs. It also appears the bolts in the headers mean AI removal was performed but maybe I am missing something.
Mods I have made include Nology wires (what the hell, why not try' em) and a dart fly screen. Also, I got some new side cover bolts (tool-less) and short seat bolts. Last week I purchased a thruxton style gel seat thru my local triumph dealer and am very pleased.
I am curious if anyone know anything about the progress of Jenks' Airbox removal Kit. I was following its release on their website but now it just sorta dropped of and I dont know if/when it will be available. I am inclined to put alot of trust in Jenks from what I have read and would like to go that route for the airboxectomy. Also, does anyone have an opinion on the new "Dominator" pipes from the same folks who do the "Predators" apparently.
I guess thats more than plenty to start with and thanks again.

Hi mate. Congrats on the bike! Glad you're loving it

I don't know about those particular pipes, but there are bound to be people here who will. Are you finding the TORs too quiet?

As for Jenks Bolts, Peter Jenks uses the Delphi New Bonneville forum and posts there quite a bit. Alternatively, drop him an e-mail. I think the ARK is just delayed. They still have it on the site, but there's no price for it yet.

Thumbs up Welcome!

Welcome aboard we're glad to hear from you. Sounds like you got a nice bike we would love to see some pictures of her. I have the Preds and I love them and that's all I'll say about that! You will not make a mistake getting them.
