Looks great mate!
Thanks for taking the time to show and explain the process.
Well worth the wait mate! Great video Cheers!
no worries mate!!!
Man I love your bike!! Get your video's done when you can we'll wait haha, be good to see the progress on the Sr
cheers mack! can't wait to get cracking on the sr!! soon!!!!
It does look really mean :) Thanks for explaining the about the huge rubber lump on the throttle cable, I didn't know what that was or did :)
Don't knock yourself mate, that was a great "How To", nice and simple and well explained :)
ha ha pleasure mate!!! glad it was of some use......now i just need to go and reverse the process cos i like the flat bars....;-)
Nutter ;) You must go through thread loc and copper grease like a bandit lol
Good stuff. Looking forward to next week's episode when you switch it all back again! Congrats on 1000 subs, btw. :-)
no joke! i do prefer the flat bars!!!- but hey- i love my subs and if one wants a clip on install vid- i aim to please!!!!!!
pretty well explained video mate ... cant wait to see some more SR progress
me too mate, i'm really hoping to get some progress done soon!!!
Always good to watch JC, I prefer the flat bars too, I think the clip-on's look good, but the flats look better. You will have to start timing yourself, you must be as practised as a factory team by now, I bet you could change back in under 15 minutes. :)
ha ha yep its a pretty quick change over now!!!- and i agree i'm digging the flats more...they are back on!!!
Good man, had to be done!
Fantastic job thanks
wow- took me back seeing this vid!! glad you liked it!
You'll be putting ape hangers, forward controls, and a hard tail on the Bonnie next! LMAO!!! Love the vid as always mate. Cheers!
Mike
don't tempt me buddy!!! you know theres a special place in my heart for forward controls and a hardtail on this!!!!!!!!!!
Hehehe... It's Groundhog Day in the Cactus Cavern! Nice work JC, great 'How to...' :)
hey mate!!! ha ha - idle hands and all that!!!!
Sorry JC, I've been out of the loop of late, life is just too damn intrusive sometimes. Hopefully catch up with you two at the Ace... Time to deck the bikes with boughs of holly etc
i know that feeling my friend- feeling on the fringe myself of late!!! be good to catch up soon. ho ho ho!
Thanks Johnny, you are great.Thank you very much...!!!
Thank you for watching and the nice comments!!!
@@johnnycactus0 I write you from Canary Islands , Spain.
your videos are very useful you are a great person
@@kalexicokalexico7018 Wow! Thank you so much! Too kind!
big thumb up! extremely nice explained! thanks a lot
Wayne Storz thanks mate!
I know it's all personal taste however I think the whole bike looks the business with these bars on. Great how to video as well.
thanks joolz- it's a toughie- i really like them both but after a long stint with the flat bars and this quick test with clips, i'm favouring the flats......doh!!!
Ha ha ha, what are you like? I thought it wouldn't be long before you changed back to the clip ons! I think your bike looks better with them, but I guess they are not as comfortable on a long run. I think we should run a sweep stake on how long it will be before you change them again...watching this space my friend.
ha ha- fear not you need not wait long- i reckon its going back fairly soon!!! i wanted to do the install video for a request so the change was more illustrative than because i wanted too!!!
Love the vid ! I have a Bonnie with Mag wheels. I'v lookimg to see what tires I can get for the Mag wheels to make the bike look more like a scrambler . or just fatter wheels .
Some fourms have me confused .
Cheers and keep the vids coming I'm really enjoying .
Pan Post hey buddy- mine was a mag wheel originally but went for fatter wheels....although i'm pretty sure you can get some continentals tck80 in the 17" diameters......if i still had the mags i'd be going that route!
good stuff. thanks for explaining everything. maybe get a tripod =)
I win my bet with myself, that was sooo easy ;) Mate, you gotta go with what you like and enjoy.....trouble is you can't make up your bloody mind what that is hehe .Nice one buddy, ride safe and ill see you soon.Maybe the Toy Run? Hi to Jen :)
hope to make the toy run mate!- i reckon i prefer the flat bars!!!!- but was asked to do a clip on vid so with time to kill i did...flat bars for me though...back to the shed!
Just a thought but is there a way of making a quick release system for the bars, would make your life a bit easier ;)
You're worse than my Mrs!!!!
I can't make my mind up which looks best - both look to damn cool! Guess it comes down to practicalities! Looking forward to more vids.
Take care dude.
ha ha- so true mate- i actually prefer the flat bars- this vid was more for the install process- so i guess i'll be going back!!! ha ha
quick question, im looking at lowering the existing clip ons for my triumph sprint st 1050 now ive never done anything like this before so is there anything to worry about in terms of making it work? i only wanna lower the riding position for a more sportier feel.
hi there!- when you say lowering the existing clip ons- do you mean using the stock clip ons or changing to some different ones entirely? - i'm not sure if the stock ones can be lowered looking at the shape- (sometimes you can mount them underneath the yoke) but switching to a lower set should be straight forward. all stock cables etc should be fine to use as it's not too dramatic a change- just factor in how much clearance you have lock to lock from the fairing and check nothing fouls.
@@johnnycactus0 nice one mate, im thinking of changing them completely to make it look and feel more like a sportbike
You're right I did chuckle, but don't care, still a good vid :)
Hey Johnny, any recommendations on instaling a pair of fork gators? I've seen several different ways, curious in your preference.
+Jamie VanDalen hey mate, well for me especially on the bonnie- it's always wheel off mudguard off- slide the forks out- it's a good excuse to have the caliper hanging and clean up/check whilst it's all apart. hope that helps dude!
thanks! I did it exactly as you described
and shes all good now!
Do you remember the top yolk torque spec on it ? Thanks
hi mate- i have a feeling it's 90Nm if i remember correctly!
Hey friend can you tell me what stand is it you are using to hold up the bike ? I need to purchase one.. thank you
Hi mate its the Dunstall bonneville stand. I have a video on it- great stand!!!
I'm looking in to doing the same procedure for clip-ons. Can you take the top yolk off with the bike on its side stand?
Yes you can!
Nice, thanks. And thanks for the video!
Hi
Thanks for the video.
If I can ask.
I need to change the top yoke of my bonneville.
Is it easy to do?
I’m not changing it, just replacing with the same but new.
Thanks:)
Yes very easy! Take your time. Essentially the removal of the yoke is just 1 top nut and 2 pinch bolts. Just remember to cover up or remove the tank- very easy to scratch or ding. Getting your handlebars out of the way- either remove or hang them up if you can. Slacken the riser bolts with yoke in situ..The yoke may be tight on there and need some gentle wiggling or tapping to free up. Torque wrench too! Hope that helps!
@@TheGiannia it's not difficult just take your time and get a haynes manual to follow. Remember to tighten everything to correct torque.
@@TheGiannia you should be able to unbolt the handlebars and move them out of the way without removing and cables etc. If I remember correctly the top nut is 90nm and the fork leg pinch bolts are 27nm. If you are quite new to this I strongly recommend getting a haynes or official triumph manual. they outline the procedures and torque settings.
Hey buddy,no real surprise in that vid mate.....the next thing will be taking the clip-ons and rear sets in a backpack on ic runs and changing en-route.All the best to you and Jen.
ha ha- yeah thats the next move- mid run switch overs!!!! ha ha
Hey mate, really insightful video! Bike look mean. I'm curious, what kinda bike stand are you using?
+Yooree Kodray hey mate!- it's a dunstall triumph bonneville stand. awesome bit of kit! here's a vid about it! - th-cam.com/video/5kY47GmtSqI/w-d-xo.html
+johnnycactus0 you're a legend mate! another great vid A+
no problem buddy!
johnnycactus0 hi, what clip on's and clutch/brake lever's ya using? looks awesome!
hey mate! the clip ons are LSL sportmatch and the levers are stock with rubber dirt bike lever sleeves on! hope that helps!
Hi there, what kinda brand are those rear sets? Are they special made for the Bonnie? Thank you...
+46MxRider46 hi mate! yep they are sato rearsets- specifically for the bonnie!!- lsl do a cheaper version- but at the time they didn't do them in black!!!
+johnnycactus0 ok thx dude... Thx 4 the fast response! Grtz
Where to buy the parts you used??
hi there- check out free spirits - www.freespiritsparts.com/en/triumph and www.satoracing.com/rearsets_triumphbonneville.htm I hope that helps!
Hi , can you link where did you buy your clipons thanks !
hi there! - it was a long time ago - but i think they were either free spirits or lsl. they both have websites and are distributed all over. hope that helps!
nice job but i prefer the flat bars to the clip-on's I think that you will change back
i changed back after the vid!!!- this was more for an install vid rather than the change- so the flat bars are back on!
Bloody hell mate make your bloody mind up you one handed bandit!
ha ha- and the funny thing is after last nights ride i reckon there's a day in the shed with the flat bars again.....ha ha ha ha ha!!!
johnnycactus0 Just sell the clip ons and rear sets or the flat bars and mid sets, one way or another it will stop you from changing your mind if you don't have the parts!
i'm trying!!! clip ons and rearsets been on ebay 3 times!!!!- its the only way i'll settle- and have some cash to finish the sr!!!
The clip ons win..... For now
Good video mate
ha ha- already back to flat bars mate!!!- clip ons are fun but i'm gonna give ebay another shot!- gotta get that sr finished!
johnnycactus0 good luck with ebay mate.
Johnny, what's the longets ride you have taken with the clip on bars installed?
hey buddy- in one hit probably 300 odd miles in one day...was a little cramped after!!
Yeah that was my next question. I'm looking at clip ons but I'm guessing I will be hurting on any long trips for sure.
it's not crazy bad- slow moving traffic can be fatiguing ie through cities etc after a while but the flat bars are probably worse on motorways with the wind blast- each have their pros and cons!!!
johnnycactus0 How about the rear sets, were they uncomfortable on a longer ride?
not too bad, your legs are crouched up higher but its not super extreme. after a few hours a stretch is nice but i wouldn't say its any more uncomfortable than say my triumph speed four or triumph daytona 900. i was kinda used to that riding position though- so flat bars and stock bonnie footrests were a bit of a new experience for me!!! i would say stock footrests and flat bars are the most comfortable but the clip ons and rearsets aren't insanely uncomfortable either...damn i like both equally hence the reason i cant seem to make up my mind!!! i guess rearsets and clip ons are an expensive 'gamble' though....-sorry bud, has that been any use to you!!???
Groundhog day!
ha ha- !!!
what year bonneville is this?
FireyPanda889 hi mate- it's a 2010 mag wheel bonnie
Love the vid but you need a penny pit stop to do the camera chap.
Bob Barrett so true my friend!!! one simply can't get the staff these days!!!!- later videos have incorporated a tripod affair but i am sorting through C.V's now......;-)
Oh no Mr Cactus all those therapy sessions you attended for the bar addiction and as soon as your left alone for five minutes you start dabbling again. Your weak,weak lol. Looks good but i think it looks sooo much better with flat bars. Ride safe mate
i think the flat bars are the winner- after last nights ride with clips i'm just enjoying the flat bars more!
You big girl, worst than girly shoe shopping, just can't make your mind up lol ;)
Where's Johnny ??
a few things getting in the way at the mo mate- will get back in gear soon i hope!
a few things getting in the way at the mo mate- will get back in gear soon i hope!
