  1. Air Cooled Twins Technical Talk
    Hello fellow air cooled twin enthusiasts. I have one question, lots of words, hopefully some helpful info for others, and a game. I accidentally bought a virtually new carbureted ‘08 Thruxton last fall (long story). It has had the dreaded ‘misfire’, ‘sneezing’ issue on just one cylinder at low...

    Anybody rebuild their stock integrated throttle and brake fluid master cylinder to a separated / non-integrated version? I have a thruxton 2010 where I have installed the woodcraft clip-ons with 3" risers. However the brake master is akwardly tight to the clip-ons, almost touching. But what's...

    Hello all, I'm getting some corrosion on my wheels where the spokes meet the hub from a '05 Thruxton. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to clean it up without messing up the rest of the finish/clearcoat? I know my spindle also has some as well but that's easy to remove and clean up

    I know this has been talked about way to much but I am at a lose. I have a 2013 Thruxton with new tires and dana beads for balancing. I had a pogo feeling in the suspension with the original tires so I changed them and the feeling stayed the same. I then went with the Progressive Brand springs...

    Hello all, First of all, I have a tendency to be long winded. I apologize in advance and will make an effort to brevity. If you are someone who values details, you are in the right thread. I am finally making the switch from 1" to 7/8" bars and controls on my 2013 Thruxton 900. The cost vs...

    Hey guys, any suggestions for some saddlebags to mount on a ‘14 Thruxton with the cowl still on? Not looking to break the bank nor something that looks super bulky. Ideally some leather bags might be nice.

    Just like every other modification made to a bike, this choice of color has me thinking (re: overthinking) of my options. I’m gonna order the FEK for my ‘14 Thruxton 900 but don’t know if I should go with the standard amber lenses or the clear lenses with the amber bulb. Any suggestions or pics...

    Was thinking of taking off the triumph badge and knee pads from the fuel tank of my Brooklands Green Thruxton. Has anyone done this and would you recommend leaving it blank or perhaps a high quality, matte colored Triumph sticker in lieu of the shiny chrome (plastic) badge? Just trying to give...

    Hello everyone, I just bought my first motorcycle two days ago, a ‘14 Thruxton 900. Beginner question about checking coolant levels. I see where I can check engine oil but can’t seem to find where the coolant is, I looked through the manual and yet somehow still don’t know... Any pics with...

    Hey folks! I am having a small issue with my 2012 Thruxton. Here's how it goes: Recently, I filled my Thruxton with some fuel injector cleaner. It was much needed since the previous owner didn't ride that much for the past years and I noticed quite an improvment in RPM passing from 4000 rpm to...

    Guys. I bought a Thruxton 900 2007 yesterday and rode it today for the first time. Whilst it’s runs great I had a feeling the Rev counter was over reading. I have checked the gearing and it has the standard 43/18 teeth sprockets so it’s not that. The Rev counter reads ok at tick over. The bike...
