Nice upgrades.
It's good to hear Penny's smiling voice! 😀
It sure is Harold, she's always helping out in the background.. Great to hear from you sir, take care and keep safe.. D&Pxx
Nice carb covers....In AZ, USA the black levers in the summer would melt my hands. I have the aluminum on my Street Glide and are wrapped in leather and I wear Gloves. The black looks dyno-mite on that Triumph. When was the last time you lubbed the clutch cable....could have done it when you changed out the levers. Just keeping you on your toes Del! Back in the day I used to garage my Triple Yamaha next to a Triumph Triple...............I'd drool over that sweety.....were talking 1978-79. Id give my Harley up for that beauty! Shiney side up
I wish someday i ll get a Triumph!
badass awesome gift. I'll tell JR Wood & Metal Penny and Del sent me !
Del, I know this is an old video, but I'm having trouble with my 2011 Bonneville America. When I started getting it ready this spring. When I would start it it ran rougher and rougher, till it wouldn't start at all. Yes, I stupidly left gas in it over the winter, so my first action was draining the tank, changed the fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs. Oil etc. The usual. Still very hard to start if at all. When I can get it to start it idles rough then dies. If I can get it started I can put my hand over the air snorkel and barely let it have air it'll run and rev fairly smooth. Obviously it's running very Lean. I've got new micro-filter baskets ordered to go in the injectors. My biggest question is how do I get the injectors out once I get the top hats off? Man, any help would be greatly appreciated. I can't find anything on injector removal. Thanks in advance, and may God bless you and penny.
Carb tops are brill. Love the coatrack good on ya Josh. Nice to hear Penny. Keep well & safe both of you. All the best.
Thanks, you too buddy, they seem to be very popular... Josh is a clever lad aye, what an honour to make that for us.. and Penny says hi.. !
Wow that is a nice coat rack. One of these days I might get a Indian. That was very nice of him to get you that Del. Very cool. Nice upgrade on Penny's Bonneville. Handle's are very nice.
Hey buddy, good to hear from you, Yes, what an honour to have such a kind gift from a talented craftsman aye.. pride of place now.. We hope you're keeping safe and well, and our of harm's way.. be safe buddy, and take care of the family.. D&Pxx
Like that Indian motorcycle rack. And it was nice to hear Penny's voice⚘🌷🌼🌼💐
Coupleof nice easy upgrades on the scrambler. I particularly like the "carb tops" they match the engine lines. Thanks for your time, stay safe and catch you next week.
Hi Andy, good to hear form you buddy, have a good weekend too, and stay safe aye.. D&Pxx
Good to hear from both of you. Stay safe and be well. We'll get through this.
Thank you, you too, stay well.
Penny’s scrambler is a really nice bike. Hopefully won’t be too long and we can all get out on our bikes again stay safe guys
Thank you Alan, that's very kind of you, im really looking forward to getting back out for a ride soon.. Take care and thank you again.. Pennyx
Nice upgrades mate , the covers would have made a nice project. Looking forward to the project bike , enjoying your work
Thanks 👍 John, glad you're enjoying it, keep safe and well mate.
Wow - 'Little Big Hook', good presence, nice work Josh. Excellent levers too, trustworthy 'feel' is a valuable sensory input when you're busy dodging boxes. As for the bling, (tried it once, couldn't eat a damn thing) well, on my way to having my head nailed to the naughty step, I'd attack them with Tough Black, highlight the edges with Tippex & call them 'Bertie Bassett's Falsies' : ) x
Ahem. Having re-read last night's post . . . Penny, please accept the grovelling apologies of this tasteless Philistine, a creature so devoid of artistic merit that he'd likely still say: 'Well, it takes Allsorts to make a World' (Sorry : ) x
Love the coat hanger you lucky bugger great video Dell
I am indeed Richard, that is one seriously awesome piece of workmanship, and it's a privilege to have it up on the wall.. Josh is a really talented guy.
Its nice to have a girlfriend / wife that's a fellow biker and enjoys your passions ..Pen's deffo a keeper buddy :-) you lucky bugger you lol
You said that right buddy on all fronts!
Fancy the carb body tops, tanks for bringing it to our attention 😊
Nice upgrades, Del. Enjoy them, Penny! Stay safe and well, both of you...
🏍👍🏍
Thanks Gary, good to hear from you, hope it's all getting under control over there with you, what a strange situation aye? Keep well, D&Px
Delboy's Garage hi folks- unfortunately our area at the southern part of the state here in Delaware’s beach area is still increasing in cases and deaths. Our population is mostly retirees. Just watched Governor’s press conference and situation is dire. All hands on deck to try to keep it under control. Pls take good care of yourselves. 😢
@@garya3056 That's bad news Gary, wishing you stay safe there, it's a very worrying time for many, let us know how you are from time to time, stay well.
Delboy's Garage thx, Mate. Thankfully the big cities like NYC are seemingly improving. We will, too. It’s war.
Cant say I'm attracted to either of these modifications, but I do like your videos anyway. Good work!
Thanks buddy, I appreciate that, just sharing a little action from the home garage. !
The new levers look nice. I've always liked black so maybe I'll get a pair for my SE. I replaced the chrome crash (dresser) bars with a black version two years ago and the newer progressive rear shocks have black springs. Thanks for this post.
Good idea buddy, the SE lends itself very well to billet alloy parts, they match the chunky alloy rims really nicely! Ride safe.
Thanks for posting Del and Pen. I fitted the TEC levers to my 2015 T100 Black - they are fantastic quality and great value for money. Those carb tops look good - now where's my credit card..........
Thanks buddy, a few years back I fitted Oberon levers to Penny's Harley, they were 4x the price of these and definitely NO better quality... great value for money from TEC as usual!
oh forgot to mention , fantastic art from Josh 👍🏻☮❤
Nice video Del, Penny the mods look sweet on your bike. Both of you stay safe and well over there and have a good weekend. Cheers
Thanks, you too buddy, Its sunny and warm, so at least we can look out the window at some early summer.. Take care you both too, D&Pxx
I love it.."You should have" Happy wife, happy life, Del
Yeah, you know you need to get on with it when you get 'that look'... you know the one.?
@@Moonfleet41 hahah absolutely
Hi Del & Penny.
I really fancy those "carb" tops. They compliment the cooling fins on the motor, perfectly.
It's good to see you both healthy.
Stay Safe.
Regards from S Africa
Clive
Hey Clive, good to hear form you my Broer, hope life is good there and you're keeping safe, if you fancy those carb tops, the link is under the video, they can ship to you so no problem.. Take care and keep safe, its always good to hear form my Homeland..
What are your suggestions for my 120 bonneville? Exhaust, x pipe, air cleaner? Fuel injection tuning? I do not want to open the motor for cams, pistons, etc. etc.
What a thoughtful and very cool piece that coat hanger is , hooks look like they may shred anything that hangs on it lol but very creative in the details, we’ll done Josh. “Carb” covers look super cool and wonder if they would actually work on a real carb above the diaphragm but none the less look better. Nobody really does it first but suspension and controls imho should always be the first modifications on a bike. Beautiful bike Penny Lane , new easy pull levers are one of the most underrated add-one but play such a significant part in our daily riding. Well then, enough chat and look forward to the next video. Cheers Sir Del 🍻
Hey buddy, good to hear from you, Those carb tops work just fine on actual carbs, in fact, that's what they are designed for first.. they just need a small mod to fit EFI bikes.. Penny says thank you, she's very happy with those upgrades.. Take care and keep safe all.. D&Pxx
Hey DB and PP lovely to see/hear you both . I love the
carb tops because they don't look like fake carb tops 👍🏻and the levers look great and finally penny can can have a comfortable lever set up 👍🏻☮❤
Thanks so much buddy, just a simple little upgrade in looks.. but the levers make a hill of difference in control.. Keep safe chap.. 😊
Wish those carb/ fuel injection top covers would work on the earlier carb models.
Hey brother they looking great..oo I had for get to say..good afternoon to you two and I hope all is well..lovely honger..You can Hong your jacket seen how it keep dropping all the time..Youall a great afternoon and keep safe and God blessing always 100%❤👍🤛
Thanks, you too David, wonderful to hear from you, thank you for your kind words of support, and have a wonderful weekend, safe safe and well, D&Px
Just fitted those levers to my street twin, very nice and not expensive 👍🏻
Good to hear, a real bargain aye?!
nice bits added Del, looking better everytime, love the hanger you have been sent, most of all, good to hear Penny again, keep safe you two, regards Del.
Thanks mate, we're good here, hoping you are too, keep well, D&Px
Enjoyed the video. Great to hear Penny’s voice again. Be well, you two.
Thanks, you too, hope you're keeping safe and well.
Nice upgrades, those tec levers would look great on my KLR600 project and the price is right! Stay safe guys!
Great to see you guys rocking on, I’ve got t the Tec levers and love them. Take care both.
How lovely to hear from you again, how are you? Are you keeping well and safe? What a strange situation this is, let's hope it's all over with soon, take care, D&Px
@@Moonfleet41 Yes all well here thanks Del, am half and half home and office at the moment which really means more time to spend in the garage/studio which i cant grumble at. stay safe buddy.
Love that Indian artwork, have to see if Josh could knock me a Triumph one up for the Mancave, nice upgrades there mate, have to get me some of those carb tops, seen a few about on Triumph sites but none like those, they look sweet, bout time you cracked the whip Pen LOL, stay well you guys and enjoy this family time together.
Glen (Claypole).
Yeah You should get in quick buddy, im sure he's gonna be inundated now.. as you can see, there isn't much he can't make.!! Get stuck in withe carb tops, they're on the website in the links below mate... take care and keep safe.. D&Pxx
I certainly can. Already have one ready in chrome!
The gift was for your hoodie which nearly always falls down!! 😁
Nice upgrades. Will buy those Tec leavers as soon as they reopen. Have you or anyone here tried with footpeg relocation system? I need to do something with my footpeg position before I break my legs hitting on them or fall of a bike :D
Not sure what bike, presume a Scrambler? TEC do some universal rear sets if you have a few fab skills, not something we've personally needed to do on this bike!
I own a Bonnie. Those foot pegs are a real nightmare for me.
Great to see it up there, honerd you love it,
JR.
The honour is all ours Sir, it's an awesome piece of wall art and functional too! Great to chat on the phone, looking forward to getting that collaboration sorted soon!
@@Moonfleet41 most definitely. Get it sorted!
Nice work 👍🏻
Nice little upgrades Del , good to see Penny in charge again ,take care stay safe 👍
In charge again mate, that would imply a time that she wasn't... and you know us better than that! Good to hear from you mate, stay safe and well.
Gotta love a bit of bling👍
the coat hanger is beautiful
Everyone loves a bit of bling delboy keep it up pal love it
How much r the carb tops?
Great video again Del and thank for you get well message Cheers
Most welcome Gerry, we mean it, please take care, heal slowly and heal fully, D&Px
Its about time Josh sent that in,ive been waiting for it
Yeah, took a little while, but we got there... awesome innit?
Finally got there!
@@Moonfleet41 it is yea,i know Josh and have watched him work
Love the coat hangger man it's awsome , penny's bike getting the bling treatment love it 👍👍
Thanks buddy, I think Josh watched the early videos here and realised I needed a proper coat hanger!
@@Moonfleet41 aww for sure you did I was expecting you to use an engine or something 😂😂😂
Penny"s back! :) I'm going to be getting an Indian Scout soon. It'd be cool if you could borrow one from somebody and make some how-to videos just for me. LOL :)
That would be cool, we have an Indian dealer just a 5miles down the road, son once they're back open, you never know!
Love it 👍 #STAYSAFE
That is cool a gift you ever got
Hi sir
My bike is troubling me with the carborator. While running it’s stoping again if I start it’s starting what is the problem
Love those injector tops!
Cool.... love the rack
Hi D & P! I just put those same levers on my Bonnie. But after I adjusted the clutch to where I wanted it, it wouldn’t actuate the clutch safety switch. Any thoughts on why that is? If I put the lever adjustment to the farthest out, it works, but if I set it to a closer setting, no dice. Good thing I have big hands...
Hi Jim, the super wide range of adjustability on these levers does put at the edge of their range on their closest setting, the trick is to adjust out all the slack on the cable and you should still get a safe dis-engagement, but if you have larger hands then I guess you don't need to.
Delboy's Garage I’m still working on the dark arts of clutch and throttle adjustments. Lol. Also of impotence at this time is adjusting the rear brake pedal. I put the TEC foot controls on, and now the rear sits too low, and has too much play in it. I think I know what to do, but I was actually looking to see if you had a video for that. Only found the old Sportster video.
Hi del having a nightmare trying to get screws of carb top three have chewed up. I think triumph have locktighted them in iv sprayed release oil on screws left them overnight then used small flat head screwdriver and broke the tip off can't budge em. I've got 2012 bonneville se done loads of mods followed all your triumph videos fantastic love me bike please help or should I get a motorcycle mechanic to drill them out.thanks delboy.. Seamus keyes aka shaky
HI mate, thats never an easy one, and it's always a job of butchery once they strip.. have you tried clamping the head of the screw with a pair of slim nose locking pliers while turning with the screw driver at the same time?... otherwise, if they genuinely are locked in there solid and stripped out, then they're pretty easy to drill out yourself mate.. you only need to spin the head itself off, then the cap can be removed, and you can remove the stumps with some grips.!! Good luck with it mate, hope that helps in some way.
@@Moonfleet41 thanks del will try grips first fingers crossed thank you quick response top bloke :)
@@Moonfleet41 I striped the head of one screw when installing the same new covers in your video. I never had to remove the screw again, but it bothers me that it is striped. It's hard to fix this because the screw is set very deep into the cover.
(P) Love the coat rack, fair play to Josh! Did you not remove the centre pin in the carb tops because it can foul on the injector wires? Both great upgrades 😀
Yes I did mate, just drilled them off with an end mill bit, little point in showing it, there's lots of ways to do it, even nip it off with a Dremel, no problem! Hope you're all ok there, D&Px
Nice upgrade,hope Penny appreciates you😳
Stay Safe both,,,,,,,
Thanks mate, you too in these strange times.
hi..is this stock handlebars for scrambler or what? I wolud like to have on my Triumph bonneville t100 aircooled ..tnx
Hi . Sorry am late 😃 . But Worth the wait . ☕ . Stay safe 🙏 .
Good to hear from you buddy, hope you safe and well, have a good week and take care.D&Px
Devil is in the detail nice little touches makes a difference
The voice of She who must be obeyed!!!!😂😂😂
Said that right buddy!
The scrambler is looking good, will have a look for them levers as I do struggle A bit with my bikes clutch lever. Just on question what happened to the mag wheeled bonneville? Or have you changed the wheels over?. Great video an thanks again.
Hi Ian, two different bikes, the Bonneville SE was sold maybe 6yrs ago, but this bike we had new since 2013.
Delboy's Garage thank you was just wondering as What happened to it, as it has given me ideas to do to my own bonneville. Thanks once again
Where can I get those injector body covers from??...can't find them anywhere...
Was the direct link in the description below the video now working then mate..?
@@Moonfleet41 .....Yes sorry.....my mistake...clicked on the wrong link....doh
Excellent ... Stay Safe
Good job 👍
Like the carb tops
Where did you get them 👍👍
Here you go.. Link here:- www.tecbikeparts.com/product/finned-alloy-carb-tops-black/
I’m having a T100 shipped from Colorado to Pennsylvania and I’m wondering how and what jetting I need due to sea level?
You don't say what year your Bonneville, is it actually carb, or fuel injection like this one, as EFI bikes will self adjust, but even if it is carb, you shouldn't need much of a change, it's not a great altitude difference. If anything it will run a little richer, which is safe, so check your plugs after a few days of riding around.
Hey Del and Penny. Hope you are safe and healthy. Del, any secret tips on removing a stubborn Philips head screw that's on one of my engine casings? I've got one off under "dad power" but the other is just going to round. I'm replacing one of the smaller casings but I'm not sure 1. How to get the last one out and 2. Should I replace the screws?
Hi Tor, remind me what bike that is? Only purely because I'm interested, last time I saw Philips screws in engine casings was in early 70's Jap bikes or Brit bikes, they've been allen screws for as long as I can remember, anyway, if it's a Philips head, as far as I remember they would be a dome shape, so can you maybe get a pair of pointed locking pliers, if you have some, across the head to grip it and then turn with a screwdriver at the same time? That can help... another trick if you don't have an impact driver is with the screwdriver in the head, tap on it very gently with a small hammer as you force inwards and turn, and you make your own kind of impact driver... try those things and see how it goes... if you've chewed it out through, then it's easier to just drill the head off carefully and use a drill bit the same size as the screw shaft, then when you drill the head off, don't go any deeper, take the casing off and you should have a healthly stump to get hold of with the grips.... and as for replacing the screws, I'd upgrade them to allen heads if you can source them.
@@Moonfleet41 It's the crankcase cover on the right hand side of a 2010 Yamaha XJR 1300 Del. It has 2 recessed philips head screws holding it in and they are bloody tight and bloody long! Like I said top one came out with a bit of a fight but the bottom one won't budge and I can see it'll round if I try any harder. But you saying that I think the trusty old impact driver will sort it out once I can get outside to some tools! Sadly my lockdown has me locked away from my workshop!
@@torks2339 OK, i know the ones, well if the head is already part chewed then its going down a much trodden road already.. if the impact driver can't get hold of it then its the usual surgery.. give yourself every chance you can with the impact driver first.. if the head is sharp to the touch that means the steel is bruised outwards from force, so take a small hammer and gently tap the head of the screw to push the bruised out metal back into place, and that will tighten up the cross cut a little.. then take some time choosing the exact right fitting cross head bit, make sure it fits dead snug with no slop.. and when you it it, hit dead square on.. im sure it'll crack and then be able to be removed... good luck with it buddy.. hope it's a success.. !
@@Moonfleet41 Thank you Del! Just like old times you helping me out of a fix! haha!
Perfect 👌
What's your opinion on what's best TEC or Moton parts, planning a big project on the 865 and your input would be great, also do you have any dealings with the TEC fuel boost plug. Thanks Alex
Both companies offer top quality parts that vary in style and direction.. choose what appeals to you most for your intended mods.. and yes i have used a boost plug from TEC, made a video domestration of fitting it and ride review..!
@@Moonfleet41 Great stuff, you haven't got a link by any chance as I can't seem to find it.
Funny to see electronics where a diaphragm should be! Progress 😐
Tired cable... Le câble d' embrayage agonise sous la torture.
Hi folks
Hi Richard, for some reason your first comment went to spam, just in case you wondered.
hello Del and the community,, my name is chris,, have a bit of a problem.. I have a 2008 Dyna Wide Glide lat year I had Harley Davidson change all 3 fluids.. Oil, primary, and Trans... this year I decides to do it myself... I Started out doing the Primary oil drained then went to take the derby cover off got 4 of the screws off Number 5 not so much.. Harley has tightened it down so much that the screw head with the T27 head is now stripped need everybody's help what can i do to get it off...thanks you chris
Same thing happened to me. I never had to remove the screws again, but it bothers me that it is striped. Have you ever solved this? It's hard to fix this because the screw is set very deep into the cover.
Try an ez out. You will have to replace that fastener because the ez out will destroy it..... But you will get it out.
nice upgrades
Thanks buddy, hope you're feeling better, you must have been worried at one point, but it looks like you're the other side of it now.
@@Moonfleet41 yes doing much better a few more days and i'll be cleared by the department of health. can't wait
Hi Del, Great vid as always.
Could you answer a question for me please?
May seem a silly one but l changed the levers on the rocket a while ago, can you tell me why the brake pivot screw seems to be a scew in type ie slot for screw driver and the clutch side is flat?
Thanks
Hi mate, that's an easy answer, the flat pin on the clutch has a shoulder underneath it, if you look closely, and that stops it twisting in it's hole, because the pulling in action of the clutch would eventually un-screw it, but on the brake side, the lever action actually does it up, so no risk of undoing it, they both have lock nuts on the bottom for safety, that's the reason a clutch pin doesn't screw in.
@@Moonfleet41 Ahhh brilliant mate thanks for that.
@@Moonfleet41 Sorry to be a pain Del but I've purchased some kellerman atto indicators, l dont know if your familiar with them they are ultra small.
My question is that they do a small adapter so they can be fitted under the levers on the pivot screws we mentioned earlier.
Do you think that it would be a safe place to fit them, ie the pivot screws would no come loose or undo with this adapter fitted?
They also do one that fits under the mirrors using the screws again.
Can you tell me your thoughts on this if you dont mind?
Many thanks...lee
@@R3RLEE OK mate, a good idea would be to talk to Kellerman, because I'm sure they would have tested approved positions for their products, but I'd have to see them to be sure... just one thing though, remember, that on the left hand side the shouldered pivot for the clutch doesn't screw in to the clevice clamp, it's on ly the nut that holds it down in place, and there's only about 10mm of thread, so you'd have to check whether you can get it on there and still get the nut on top of it, I wouldn't really know unless I looked at it closely mate.
@@Moonfleet41 cheers mate, thanks again for your thoughts.
All the best.
Is it possible to replace the various little red buttons on the controls, my horn button for example has faded to an ugly chalky pink, and I'd like to refresh it with a new bright red button?
Looking good!!
Hi. Do you know if those levers would fit a 2001 Bonneville??
Yes Lisa, go to the TEC website in the link below, and you can order them for your bike direct..!
Does anyone know how to fit a booster plug to triumph bonneville 2010.
Gotta love shorties
sweet!
How much is the carb tops?
Direct link under the video mate.
@@Moonfleet41 hi bud I can't find it?
Comment
I bought a set of levers like that (not from Tec) and I lost so many bits like fuel gauge and mileage, cruise control. Wasted my money. Think they were about £27. You get what you pay for. Regards to you both. Stay safe.
Hi Richard, how did you lose those things? Was there some electrical issue?
@@Moonfleet41 yes. The shape of the lever did not contact electrical connectors hence electrically several functions could not work. I searched online and found a number of people had similar problems and replacing the standard levers fixed it.
How cum all that happened just putting a set of levers on?
Hi del penny glad our ok
Hi Simon, we're good thanks, hoping you're all safe and well there, take care and keep safe, D&Px
