On a newer standard Bonneville, has anyone ever installed a clutch cover from a Speedmaster on a standard Bonneville? I think a Speedy cover on the Black Bonneville would look really nice with the round Triumph logo on it. Does anyone have a picture of that setup?
Thanks

I haven't heard of someone doing that, and I suspect it may not fit.
But you can get the badge bit separately. It's listed as clutch cover finisher and the part number is
A9938045
And not that expensive...

From what I understand, they use the same engine castings, so there is a good chance it will bolt right on. No idea if it will clear the frame though, that will take some careful measuring or a test fit.

If I could find a full set of that brushed finish engine cases (thrux?) I would be willing to try a swap!! Or a chrome T100 engine case. I like the more organic look of those over the fake-primary-drive cover lookin thing on ours.

Mark, Why don't you pull apart the two bike and verify that all the covers are interchangeable for us?

Bonnie covers fit our bikes, but you'll have to swap out the the shift linkage. I would imagine it would work the other way around, but I haven't seen it done.

Does that rod hit the case or something?
