Titanium Sale Ends this weekend 4th July

What really would help claviger is if you know the length and size of the caliper bolts and post them....

Mully go to bikebandit and you can look up the sizes, or wait for MrClaviger to reply but he will probably say the same because that is what he told me a wee while ago

Oh shoot! I didn't even think about that!

Alright, I pulled the trigger -- like a crow, I can't resist shiny bits.

Frustrating they don't list the sizes in every showing of the items so to some extent I'm buying a pig in a poke, and I don't have that kind of money to throw around.

On the UK site, they accept the TT20 discount code, and after you enter your US address, they subtract the VAT, and add the "US premium courier" and the discount is about double the shipping, so the discount works out to be about ten percent with "free" shipping.

Will see. And now I will have one more thing on which I will have to put the mechanic on notice I expect to have back with the bike when he's done.

So your lightening your Touring with Titanium bolts to go racing?
Or are you getting the Stainless versions to prevent rust and stay shiny

It appears you have to Register for each country's site separately.

I know some women just HATE being pitched with a car, a gun, pack of cigarettes, you name it, that the marketing folks have colored pink.

So throw me in that briar patch -- I would NOT have purchased these bolts except for the colors in which they are offered.

And you would (not) be amazed at all the races I win on my Rocket, when I'm asleep.

So enlighten us you going purple, gold or something else for your next Roadster's fuel cap?

Price comparisom GBP4.50 = AUD$7.71 -20%VAT is AUD$6.43
Australian site price = AUD$8.10 includes 10% GST so comparison w/o tax is AUD$7.36 or 14.5% difference. Not bad for an Aussie distributor.

Blue for the Ti bits, and red for a couple of isolated bits in Aluminum

 

[Claviger]

The bolt sizes are almost all listed on the worldoftriumph site, it's where I get them. For the ones not listed I remove the bolt and measure before ordering.

Wheight savings is about 40% vs the SS bolts. Multiply that over the 100-150 easily done ones and it's a non-trivial amount of weight.

There are no anodized Ti bolts, it's a variety of coatings, but all the finishes are quite tough compared to anodizing. The DLC black Ti parts are seriously tough and tools don't leave marks on them.

I just did a rough calculation. 100-150 pcs at say an average price of $10.00 a piece is $1,000-$1500. I think I will go on a diet instead!
