Welcome to the Thruxton Crew. Where did you get the black screws for the windscreen?

Love the mods you did! Both functionally (for example, the awesome short ASV clutch and throttle levers) and aesthetically (to continue with the same example, the ASV levers look way better than the OEM ones; besides, imho, they're perhaps the best levers in the entire world and they fully deserve their premium retail price. I had them on an old WR426F when I was a bit younger, spending my weekends on "adventure enduro" trips on the mountains of Crete, Greece, so I know what I'm talking about! 🙂Basically, all I'm trying to say is: Bravo! You're a man with good taste, no doubt. Your Thruxton looks amazing! And like I said, what you modified, counts as a functional upgrade too, contributing to the bike's overall performance at the same time. Smart, brilliant mods! Well, there's not much else to say about it than this: I wish you enjoy your bike to the fullest, mate!

Must feel nice to have a bike that actually handles well and has a good power to weight ratio.

I put a set of BST Diamond Tek carbon wheels on mine. Absolutely transforms the handling. Twin Zards on my bike, decatted and no baffles in. Remapped to suit the mods. Awesome bike. It can keep up with the superbikes round the twistys no problem.

I bought it to replace my aging 1995 Ducati 900ss. It is actually pretty similar.

Bike looks awesome. Factory exhausts on most bikes now sound pretty lame.
