I bought the green/silver Thruxton rs last year, best bike i've ever owned.

What a beautiful spec! They're very special bikes. It's a shame they're no longer in production.

A couple corrections: chrome edition comes with a chrome triple as well, front are showa and back are ohlins. Also the bike you're loaned has heated gripes equipped which are some of the best I've ever used.
@TheBritishMotorbiker6 ай бұрын
Thanks so much for the info! I have a habit of seeing golden forks and immediately thinking they are Öhlins. The heated grips have been a great help. Oh, the triple as in the clamp for the forks?
@FunWithAJ6 ай бұрын
@TheBritishMotorbiker yes the triple clamp on the tip of the forks by the stem nut. It's Chrome on the chrome version and blasted on the rest of the 22-24 rs

Been obsessed with this bike for years! I always try to catch as many videos made about it that I can. So Thx! The chrome edition is fantastic looking- definitely bummed Triumph is discontinuing the Thruxton.

It is honestly such a beautiful machine, and I cannot fathom why they are getting rid of it. I'm glad you like the video, and that I could be of help with showing the bike off in all its glory. I will work on uploading a riding POV soon.

That's very kind of you to say! I have some more videos planned :) Ha, we were all there once, but I don't miss the single cylinder sound.

Lovely. So the modes are throttle responsiveness. Sport being the sharpest, down to rain which is a much easier throttle. I found it good for a pillion as it takes away the snatchiness. Another good mod is a throttle spacer which takes away the pointless free play. I do miss mine.
@TheBritishMotorbiker6 ай бұрын
Thank you for this. I've been playing around with them and there is a noticeable difference in the throttle response. Is that all it does, or does it limit the total power that is used as well? Is that even possible on bikes?

I really can’t decide which on is sexier this shiny metal or the 2017 silver one, how many mpg do you get from it??
@TheBritishMotorbiker6 ай бұрын
I know exactly what you mean. Perhaps, if the seat cowl on the Chrome Edition was also chrome, rather than black, it would be a closer comparison. In my opinion, anyone can have a silver tank, but chrome is another level of sophistication! As for the MPG, I haven't actually looked at it once since receiving the bike. I will take a look when I'm next out and let you know :)

beautiful bike but the first thing I would do is paint over that "Thruxton" logo. Font is crap!
@TheBritishMotorbikerАй бұрын
Would you replace it with another font? The bike is so recognisable, I don't even think the writing is necessary.
@user-mj3vn7yl9sАй бұрын
@@TheBritishMotorbiker i would just paint over it tbh. no need to even show it. distracts from the rest of the beauty of this masterpiece.
