Triumph Scrambler

Rhodie Motorcycle Products = RMP? Looks the goods

There are several tubeless wheel options. I don't know if you mean you want spoked or cast wheels but these spoked options are nice, and the Alpina I think are available as direct replacements for Triumphs:

Jupiter flattrack wheels!!: http://www.bankeperformance.com/flattrack/rims.html

de nada.

Who is your ISP? Most allocate a certain amount of webserver space to each customer. Of course, they aren't always too forthcoming about the space.

Do you know of any cast wheel options?

Also, I'm trouble finding the "several" options, either cast or spoked.

Well I've seen some guys use these nice but expensive cast ones from Southbay Triumph. http://www.triumphperformanceusa.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=18&sort=20a&page=2

Also some have used Suzuki SV650 and CBR600 wheels. But then it involves some degree adapting of course.

Try a search for spoked tubeless rims, that's how I found the links I posted.

Thanks for posting that Pascal. Looks like great fun and has me longing for springtime and the gravel roads again!
It looks like you have gone from YSS shocks to Öhlins, is that right?
And I think you have changed the rims? Is that a 21", 18" setup or is my eyesight going?

Cheers

Several models of the '09 new Bonneville are coming with cast wheels and tubeless tires. I would assume they would be a direct bolt on.?

$1800! But man...look at that thing...

Yes..."nice" might have been a slight understatement I believe..

Nah...sorry,but mags on a Scrambler would be as wrong as stilettos on a fat chick.

It just ain`t right.

The problem is that the Scrambler front tire is 19 x 2.5 inches. The 2009 Bonneville front 17 x 3.0 inches.

THAT IS 1 CLASS ACT!!!!!!!!!!!WELL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!

huckleberry and Mr. LotusKTM !!

Thats a MEGAMOTO!!

Stupid question but have the Triumph people seen this thing? I mean Wow! Building one from scratch wouldn't that tough woud it?

Chromo frame, but one-off frame or from what bike?

DAAAAAAAAAAMN!

I am so old that I have to wear a drool bib and even I like it!

Hi riders,

The Chromo frame is one off, as is the 5 gal tank, side panels and pipes. I did send photos and specs to Triumph.....no response. Local dealer......oh, that's nice. No build pics. We just didn't think about it at the time.
Frame was made by a retired frame and race car builder. He has a frame jig, etc.
Bike is No.Calif. Sierra Foothills.
No frame flexing around the stocker. Better suspension.

One comment about the mag wheels. Nice on the pavement. Not so nice off road. They have been tried in the past. They do not flex when the bike hits a chuck hole, etc. Spokes flex and give. If you ever see a slow motion video of a spoke wheel in action off road.....they give and flex as part of the whole suspension package. Very little but it prevents, or helps prevent damage to the wheels. BMW has used spoke wheels with tubeless tyres for a long time. Also, Montessa, (Hontessa), and many other trials bikes use a rear tubeless wheel. Fronts are still tube type. BMW places the spke nipples toward the outside of the rim. Montessa uses a ridge along the center of the rim and come off that with adjustable spokes.

Just my 2 cents worth.

I agree. I love spoked wheels, there's something magic in the way they go together and hold together. But you know there are some really weird people that never take their bikes out even on a gravel road or a single laner, even if it's a Scrambler!! :huh

Read the uber Scrambler mod in Motorcyclist today. Talk about overkill sheesh. $2400 Penske shocks? Fiberglass rear fender. Ducati Monster handlebars.

The rims. I like. Camshafts. I like. Brakes. I like.

Heh heh. Hit 1k on that last post. Yay me.
