    that's the same as mine. the button ones are used on the thunderbird 1600.

    Heated grips question

    Must admit i am not impressed with them. Bought a thunderbird a few years back and they were great initially then their attitude changed when i sold it and bought a second hand roadster from a different dealer.

    New exhausts query

    ok will look into isogrips. can the fit over heated grips? the bike is fine for a 4 or 5hr drive its just when the ride gets a lot longer. don't think its a problem with the bike as its serviced regularly. I use ear plugs so noise isn't an issue

    New exhausts query

    I love my bike. the size of it, as I am a large chap, the power, the look, but it seems to vibrate just a bit too much when driven over long periods. I drove for about 10hrs (550miles one way) last summer from south wales to Scotland in a day and at the end of the day my hands were quite a bit...

    that's the ones I have already. thought that aftermarket ones may be better

    New exhausts query

    Hi guys looking for some advise again from the vast font of knowledge on this forum. I am planning a long trip on the bike and am looking for a quieter exhaust, or one that doesn't vibrate the bike so much. Do they exist for the rocket?
