PROJECT SPEED TWIN ⚡️🏁
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- We let Oli aka 'Revs' on the tools to see if he could handle this DIY project to implement various bolt on parts. He got to work on his Speed Twin with parts including the X pipe from Motone and front and rear suspension from Nitron.
Not for the faint hearted, watch and see how he got on.. Unfortunately we couldn't help as we had our hands full filming...

Thank you! Apart for the relaxed informative video I appreciate it that no curse words were used and above all no blasphemy (super rare these days!) Blessings!
I totally agree.
its just beautiful came back multiple times for this
Great build! Fun video to watch...presentation was just as many of us DIYers have to do...fiugure it out as we go along! Cheers!
How did you tune it? Mufflers and the decat together, has to change the gas flow a good bit. If it changes it enough to feel a performance difference, then it changed it enough that it would need some fueling changes. The 12 minute tune really only makes minimal changes down low... It won't make any changes up top or when the throttle is open more than 20%.
Looks amazing!
We didn’t tune the bike and tbh we probably didn’t quite get to twist her fully open either! For our riding it didn’t sound or feel like it needed the tuning but completely agree from a performance POV no doubt there’s more to get from this machine.
That beauty is gonna give you a lot of grins! Thanks for the video.
Pleasure, thanks! 👊🏻⚡️
For a DYI’er, you can crank the preload on the rear shocks. Then take only one off at a time and re-install one at a time, while on the side stand. Bike will minimally drop on the RH side, so do that first.
Thanks Adam. We’re very lucky to have Nitron on hand to help us out but I’m sure this will be great advice for our viewers.
She looks great, especially the cans! I love my Speed Twin too and started to change some parts with original Triumph spare parts since there are right now not so much custom parts of 3rd vendors out there, first I did change the tail tidy with a solution from an vendor from Australia especially made for the Speed twin, the indicators, and some cosmetics, as the black lamp house to one in ice grey, a Triumph spare part from the street twin cafe racer as well as the wind shield, also in ice grey from the street twin, LED front lamp, etc., next project will be a new pipe, I wanna do it step by step to collect ideas and think what would match to the bike without destroying its characteristics
Sounds great! Thanks for checking out our build, hope it’s given you some ideas. Motone are doing some epic parts for this particular model. 👍🏻🏁
Great job! You just didn't mencion the changes to the standatd seat, it looks more comfortable and got nice looks
Thanks! It’s an omega racing seat. Omegaracer.com
Looks and sounds fantastic looking forward to next one stay safe 🇬🇧👍
Cheers Rich ⚡️
Lovely looking bike mate , two into one on the exhaust looks though I’d say . Great video .
Add the Arton dials to your instruments.
Nice bike!
Looks and sounds amazing
Thank you! 👊
I changed out front and back to the Nitron setup last summer. I WANT THAT TANK PAINT JOB!
We think it’s pretty cool too 👊🏼
You know I've had a lot of bikes and this one though not top end fast is the most fun. Areally goodpowerto weight ratio and great handlinf especially with the Nitron setup. I had to get the heavier shocks cuz i weigh 250 lbs. haha I guess im just at the edge of being too big for this bike but I can always lose weight but a Harley is ugly forever!
Nice video guys, the Street Twin is a lovely entry bike for the Thruxton 😉
😄👍🏼
Same engine as a Thruxton R :) and a lighter bike ;)
@@loweclassics6199 96bhp vs 55bhp. It’s a lovely entry bike mate 😂😂😂
@@bluetwitch303 it’s the same engine 97bhp speed twin 😂 1200 we sold the 900 street twin 🤪
Fantastic work 😮👍🏼
I plan on getting a Speed Twin soon!
Good luck, let us know how it goes!
Great looking bike !!! 😍😍😍👍👍👍
Agreed!
Beautyfull 😍😎👍🏻
Lovely bike im looking at getting the 2024 stealth version cant wait one qwestion on your rear shocks do moto do different colours on the springs lovely bike looks fantastic sounds amazing 😍
Check out their current range, there's loads of new parts out now! Nitron are great.
What’s that watch you are wearing?
Looking at the Motone site... are you using parts from a different model bike that fit the Speed Twin?
All parts were for the Speed Twin, check out motone for their latest parts, some great new ones.
The is Very veryNice.
Spitze
I knew it. A bike that good looking must have come from the future! And you confirmed it at 9:51 in the video.
Ha thanks!
When do we get to see the bike ridden? + spill the beans on the tank paint job... who did it and what was the cost?
Hey Mark, we're yet to get the bike filmed firing on all cylinders but it's an impressive bike and smashed the shakedown! I don't have the exact details to hand on the paint job, if you email info@baffleculture.com we'll happily sort your enquiry there.
Hey man. What fuel cap is that? I want to change mine out but not sure which one will fit it.
Hey, sorry for the late reply! Check out Motone Customs.
what seat is that? love the build, thanks!
That’s one nice looking machine
Thanks Timothy ⚡️🏁
Looks wonderful.. Which bar risers did you use?
What gas-cap do you have on? - Is it the Motone? I know there's will fit, but there they warned me that there would be a weird ridge thing, which is exposed on the speed twin when you remove the stock cover. Is that what you can see 9.29 min in? - Love the build by the way :) Looks great
Yes it’s the Motone one and they have a small alloy ring in prototype stage to supply with the gas cap for the speed twin in the near future to help tidy the look up. Thanks 👌🏼🔥
seat?
Is there any other seats I love the bike but that long seat kills me. Can you create a video with other seat options?
Thanks for the message! Unfortunately we won't be able to do this video but if there's anything else please don't hesitate to reach out.
Sweet bike. I have a 21 Speed Twin and I want the motone or cone eng. shorty exhaust. My girl and I ride a lot and we are comm'd up. Do you think these are too loud?
No, not too loud, perfect level ;)
who painted the tank for you?
Also, he did not mention what he did to the side covers. Did he just remove the silver badges and rattle can them black (flat black?)?
He did indeed. Probably better to get professional paint on them! 😄
I used peelable rubber spray for now! Future plan is hand made alloy ones
Nice bike, I was about to get my headlight it bracket powder coated but I see the one you have fitted lowers it slightly too. Where is it from? Would love it for my bike 👍
It’s a motone part 👌🏼
Hello Baffle Culture, Have you ever seen signs of coolant leaking from the small hole in the middle of the oil pan under your speed twin?
Is that a crafton artlier seat? Looks & sounds fantastic, well done!
Thanks! It’s an omega racing seat. Omegaracer.com 👍🏼
I just put a Crafton Atalier seat on my 2020 Speed Twin. Nice seat but the rear bracket/catch (seat lock) on the seat had to be adjusted forward a quarter inch (6mm); the front bracket is hardened Stainless, strong but I added a rubber pad so the seat would sit tight next to the gas tank.
I didn't have the option of moving the seat forward because it was already rubbing the tank out of the box. Most accessories need some honing and fitment; I recommend the Crafton seat over Corbin, etc.
@@frederickwoods5943 thanks for sharing your experience Frederick, our fitting was straight forward with no issues.
I have looked all over for that Motone headlight bracket and cannot find it (also that gas cap)! Where can I find them?
A few of the parts were prototype parts from Motone so send those guys a DM And I’m sure they can hook you up!
Liked the video. Is the seat more comfortable than the stock seat?
Thanks, looking forward to more videos.
Revs tells us the seat is way more comfortable and looks better. Thanks for this great feedback and stay tuned for more!
Very nice. Would love to know how you like the suspension!
Suspension is great quality and performance. Honestly can’t fault it.
Where did you get these black brackets for the head lights?
Motone, great guys for any part requirements
When swapping in the X-pipe and motone exhaust, did you also need to adjust the fuel map somehow?
EFI adjusts itself, we were recommended to leave the bike idle for 10 mins without 'smashing' the throttle.
Where can I get hold of one of those Maintainence manuals....pls,!!,
They are Haynes manuals. Just search for the speed twin Haynes manual. 👊🏼
@@BaffleHaus 👍🏻
I love my Speed Twin, even more since I took the cat out.
Absolutely 🔥
@@BaffleHaus Same! Even if it is smellier 😉A fabulous machine!
@@wandering_armadillo smellier? Mine doesn't smell at all. What kind of fuel do you use?
@@LeftHandCustoms The third most expensive one at the pump (91 Octane I think in Canada). I expect some excess pollution as the cat is gone I guess. Is my bike running too rich? I have very little mechanical know how, yet love the way she runs and crackles 😉
@@wandering_armadillo I run mine on 95, the highest I can find here, but it is the first time I hear someone talking about the smell, maybe you should try a higher octane fuel.
Hello, I sent two emails to find out the exact reference of the black motone pot like yours but no answers because on the site there are only two models, one for the street, the other for t120. Could you tell me which model for my speed twin? THANK YOU
Sorry we didn’t receive any emails our end, please fire them to info@baffleculture.com. As for the Motone part, give Motone a shout and if you haven’t had any luck we’ll try and help you out.
What brand/model is the saddle? Awesome build!
It’s an omega racing seat. Omegaracer.com
Thank you!
Where did you get the seat from ?
crafton-atelier.com/ 👌🏼
the motone silencers for thruxton correspond to those of the speed twin ?
Sorry for the late reply Harold, head over to Motone to find out more details on the silencers 👍🏻
Is that the Casio Duro watch on your wrist? ;)
Revs tells us it’s a handmade watch from Scotland. @instrmntlimited D series green nato strap 👍🏼
Looks great. Is that the stock seat?
Check comment thread from Jamie Huber 👊
which saddle did you use ❓
Omega racer seat : www.omegaracer.com/
@@BaffleHaus thank you and good road friend, I continue to follow you👍🏼
Nice bike! Is that seat stock?
Nope! A few comments below explain the seat! 👍🏼
How did you get colour match on back springs ? 🍺🇦🇺
The springs are Nitrons standard colours, we used their colour on the tank. 👍🏼
