Has anyone purchased any of the accessories from bonnveille68 for their America or Speedmaster? I know the parts are made for the "modern classics" but I was wondering if anyone utilized them for our bikes.

May as well be Bonneville68 since most all of the parts are made for the Bonnie and/or Thruxton. As far as I know only the cam covers and tank badges will fit on our bikes. Maybe the Sprocket Covers, but I am not sure on that one at all.

The sprocket cover would fit, but would look like ****** IMO. The 68 line is for the classic because Triumph didn't really make a bike like the America, or Speedmaster back then. It's not like Triumph doesn't offer a ton of stuff for the America.
I have the lexan tank badges on my 05 Standard. I'm thinking about the black and gray seat, which would look great on my all black Bonnie.

What looks good is the silver Bonnie with the gray Union Jack tank cover and the black/gray seat.

I've done that on one customers bike. Looked shweeeeeeeeeeeeet. I thought about that tank cover for my bike, with that seat. Right now, any money is earmarked for other upgrades on the bike.

That's what they make spray epoxy enamel for  I also happen to know somebody with a spare silver cam cover off an America that is willing to sell it  Some sanding with ultra fine to smooth it out, a few coats of paint, and your good to go with a total investment of about 60$ which is about half the price of the sixty8 cover with tax...........

Has anyone taken a look at how those courier bags mount and if one might fit on our bikes? I need a little storage and like the different look of those bags.
thanks,

The leather tank bag ( magnetic ) is shaped wonderfully and looks nice on my Speedmaster. Just the right size to throw stuff from my pockets into.
