Interested in finding out if there is interest in a Tank Protector for the Bikes, specifically the Black ones. I can get a generic one already made but wondering if there would be interest in one that had Thunderbird, or a Thunderbird image? Such a project would require one image. Just exploring interest.

Thanks,

Nice idea, I will be interested to see what it looked like, and an idea of what the cost is likely to be.

got home and looked up the package i got them in, no part number!! it is genuine triumph kit had a look online and couldnt locate a number. i got them at triumph in birmingham but thats not much help other than they are triumph stock. have seen them at my dealers so if they are still there could get a reference for ya.

this one looks the closest but the pic looks fatter

Link

this is the package will give you the outline incase you want to fax to a triumph dealer.



will investigate
see if i can find the receipt

Hi Zolti, Thanks for all your help, it would appear its for the newer america/speedmaster tank as the older version is entirely different, will chase it down, thanks heaps, cheers, Tadpole

It was £36 for the Triumph bag , the goods were a quid. And anyway, it must be right cos it says 'competetive price' at the bottom of the bag.

the old style you can pick up for a fiver, new, on fleabay

there is no doubt some rip off going on and not just with the accessories.
