Has anyone installed the chrome lower yoke cover (A9738086) ? I'm thinking of purchasing one, but have never seen this option, nor has my dealer. Easy install or difficult-I'm a mechanical idiot. Will the light bar and bracket interfer? My TBA has every piece of Triumph chrome except this and the engine mount. Nobody would notice that piece anyway !

I have the yoke cover and it is a waste of money.
does not cover enough.
you would be better off pulling off the front end and have
both yokes chromed or polished.
I does fit with the light bar.

I also have all the chrome, even chrome shroud covers. I bought the yoke cover when I bought the bike, but didn't like it and swapped it back for other stuff. It would be cool if it mounted reverse from how it fits. It covers the bottom of the yoke and turns up so all it really covers looking at the bike is the front of the grey yoke bar. If you have the light bar you would never even notice it. Way too expensive for so little. Add the chrome battery box or Brent's chrome license plate piece or the handle bar end chrome pieces. Just my opinion. I just didn't like the way it looked or was designed. My latest addition is going to be knee pads - give the bike a more Triumph and more balls look.

Maurice, one update on my previous comment. If you have the chrome shroud covers, and don't have the additional light bar, it would add to the apprearance. I swapped mine back toward a windshield when my bike was new, but later added the chrome shroud covers. I may add it back eventually, but there are other items higher on my list. Still, the light bar does cover up most of the benefit. I recently moved my tool bag to the frame between the headers and now wish I had the cover back as it would be totally visible.
