Has anyone checked out the 68 series parts Triumph released for the Bonneville and know if any of them would fit on the America?
I know most wouldn't but things like the sprocket covers might.

Just from a quick look at the site, I'd say the cam covers will, the tanks badges might, you'd probably have to modify the metal sprocket cover (and why anyone'd want a clear plastic one's beyond me), and the headlight covers probably will - all the rest are bonneville specific.
Mind you, I can't see myself running out to buy any of those bits for my america.

You could always paint your own cam cover anyway, right?

Tank covers.....definately no. It has a small hole for the fuel cap and no 'bulge' or bigger hole for the console. Though if you know someone talented with a sewing machine, it could be made to fit....but if it goes wrong it'll be an expensive mistake...
