If you’ve been following along, you know that the first mod I did to my 2014 Triumph Bonneville T100 Black motorcycle was swapping the stock handlebar with a Dime City Clubman-type “Speed” drop handlebar. A very cool new look, to say the least. Recently, Joker Machine sent me a pair of clip-on handlebars to review. […]

Lonelec Interface Cable for TuneECU
Let me preface by saying, “tread lightly.” With certain mods that I’ve been doing (swapping the exhaust with an aftermarket TEC 2-1 and removing the baffle), those that I have planned (air box removal), or simply just wanting to learn more about how to make my bike perform as best as possible, TuneECU has been […]

TEC Progressive Fork Springs
Back in January, I installed some pretty awesome TEC rear shocks. My intention was to replace the fork springs at the same time. Unfortunately, TEC was back ordered until April. Well, guess what? It was a wait but I finally received the fork springs, as promised, end of April. Before we begin the install, exactly […]

BONNIE MOD UPDATE
TEC 2-1 Exhaust with Baffle Removed

BONNIE MOD #21
Scottoiler V System Auto Chain Lubricator
My bike, a 2014 T100, is a daily commuter. It dawned on me after riding throughout this past winter that I had totally neglected my chain. As you can see in the above photo, the chain and sprocket are completely dry. In fact, rust is even setting in. Embarrassing, quite honestly. I took to Google to research […]

Triumph Bonneville T100 Torque Settings
I culled these torque settings from the 2012 Hayne’s Service & Repair Manual. What I’m posting applies ONLY to a late model Triumph Bonneville T100 (EFI). I created this page as an easy way to pull up this data on my smart phone when I’m outside working on the bike. I hope you find it […]
