Need help identifying a chrome solo rack and some bits?

[Ishrub]

I bought a few bits and bobs bundled with a black fly screen for my 2010 R3R and am trying to ID some of them, fitment for which model and if it is a Triumph or aftermarket part. The clipseal bags have a dozen or so mounting bolts of various sizes.

• Chrome solo fender mount rack - no markings but appears to replace pillion seat? Found it listed here with JRock's help- RIVCO still in shock £125.83

• Anyone know what the 3 cover plates under the chrome rear side fender guard trims are for? Paul Bryant did - Ahaa another RIVCO bit and they do bite hard - ouch! :£76.55
  Triumph Rocket III Exhaust Flange Covers RIVCO TR3012

• The rear side guard trims are for use w/o saddlebags aren't they? They are paper labeled with date stamps/codes 21-02-08 Q00013 on LHS one and 24-02-08 Q017 on RHS one. I didn't get any with my R3R as it came fitted with black (possibly sprayed) versions with the saddlebags fitted.
• The solid metal chromed unopened rear fender trim came with a fitting sheet (same as this http://www.nationalcycle.com/media/wysiwyg/pdf/ispl/10-110643-000.pdf ) and fitting screws for a US made 'National Cycle" 'Front of Front' and Rear of Front' guard and 'Rear of Rear' guard and I think this is part #70-710073-000 'Rear of Rear' guard so I think that is self explanatory. A heavy item! Ahaa! found it on sale US $80.96 - National Cycle Cast Rear Fender Tip - Triumph 2300 Rocket III (04-09), and here £61.32 Yowzers! http://www.customcruisers.com/contents/en-uk/p6689_triumph-rocket-iii-04-to-07-rear-fender-tip.html
  
• Are the red reflectors for Touring hard cases? They are unused self adhesive with 2 circular cutouts each on the back as if they fit over rivets, or bolt heads. The R3R is supposed to come with a single reflector fitted under the rear number plate and here in Oz, red ones are only allowed for rear facing fitment. Chris Kelly makes best case for a US fitment "... My R3R has reflectors that size and shape mounted just under the chrome rear fender side cover's on little dedicated plates."

The UK CustomCruisers site seems pretty steeply priced!

That solo rack doesn't look at all OEM.

The crappy round mirrors are exactly what's on my Touring though, that's OEM most likely...

Not sure about the reflectors, might be for the R3T - are they assymetrical, ie do the ends slant? I can't really tell off the image. The R3T reflectors are not squared off at the ends, they slant.

Those three chrome thingies are covers for the exhaust flanges.

Thanks guys.
We should contact the retro UK 'mod' crowd so they can add those mirrors to their scooters




The reflectors are symetrical with markings E E 150 SAE A 98 DOT and E9 02 4012 so maybe aftermarket generic or for USA side fitment on the chrome side fender covers.

The crappy mirrors are actually quite good mirrors please do not follow some other mods and change them just for looks safety should be the first concern not how cool do I look

Us cardigan wearing related 'mods' need to stick together, I have 2 sets now of the round OE version and waiting for you to start the new 'mod' multi trend (all trends resurface over a few decades as the trendies run out of new ideas). You are the older relative and I am a follower, just check me out in your multiple mirror pairs .

US$150 for the bundle and I only bought it for the mirrors

The solo rack is Rivco, no longer in production.
I had one, and it left nasty marks on the fender.
It's essentially eye candy and useless as a rack.

It does have a couple of clear silicon buffer pads Thanks, looks ideal to bend upwards and use as a rider's backrest with ultimate adjustment of the backrest pad with all those slots. Good chrome won't crack will it?

Your guess about the reflectors seems pretty on the mark. My R3R has reflectors that size and shape mounted just under the chrome rear fender side cover's on little dedicated plates.

I think the round mirrors suck, but then I don't like convex mirrors much. You see a lot sideways, but it looks like an ant farm as far as size and visibility is concerned, flat Kuryakyn Magnums going on the bike (well, when they finally arrive). May change that up later and put a convex one on the right... just to minimize blindspots. Either way, they will be larger and have a better field of view. And look better.
