Triumph Bonneville T100 Luggage Rack & Pannier Rails - For Under £150
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 жов 2024
- I often need to carry waterproofs, lunch, camera equipment with me on the Triumph Bonneville when out filming or testing bikes. Up to now this has meant having a back back which can often be an incumbrence and liability. I had looked at fitting a Triumph rack or pannier rails but the cost at over £300 for the set, always shied away from doing so. That is until I saw on the @TECBikeParts website that they offer their own rack at £94.99 and rails at £49.99. For me it was a no brainer. Easy to fit and whilst they may not be quite as well finished as the more expensive Triumph parts, they are functional and do not distract from the beauty of the Bonneville.
All I need now is the bags and I am ready to carry all that I need and even have a weekend away.

Those look really neat in the black Taym, I'm surprised you disturbed the cones cousin whilst he was having a bath though !
😂😂😂 thanks Gerry 😁 I thought he was drowning 😂😂
👍👍🏍. Rack looks like a proper vintage item, suits the t100 , now you can carry snacks 😁
Exactly 😁😂😂😂 thanks Paul 😁
That’s a beautiful bike TAYM 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Tim 😁
Well done Mr TAYM. Black is the best choice. It blends in well with the rest of the bike and it can be repainted if it starts to rust.
Exactly what I thought 😁 Thanks Dave 😁
Nice looking bike.
Thanks DW 😁
Great stuff. $600 NZD for my rack because you have to buy the rail and grab handle assembly as well. Handy thing though. Look forward to seeing what bags you get.👍
Thanks IT 😁 Wowza 😱 That’s exactly what I mean. Mind you they look a lot smarter 😁
Nice addition too the Bonnie 👍
Thanks Mark 😁
Mornin TAYM nice one it certainly pays to shop around for these things and that rack and rail look great in the black at probably half the cost of manufacturers price . Spot on 👌👍
Thanks Crumb 😁 less than half 😁 pleases my Yorkshire blood greatly 😂😂😂
@@TAYM 😂👍

Had the pannier rails and the smaller rack on my street twin, when i lived in the UK, and can highly recommend them. Fair bit of warning, as stated on the TEC-Website: When you live on the continent, the costs for shipping and customs clearing make TEC-products quite expensive.
Yes, good point 😁 Thanks J 😁
I have a T100 Gold Line like yours and am also considering adding Panniers, or saddle bags as we call them here in the States. And yeah, the Triumph stuff is a bit pricey for something I don't absolutely need. I think you've hit the mark with the TEC parts.
Thanks Maddog 😁 It will be interesting to see how much it would cost to post to the US, possibly end up the same price as Triumph😂
Splendiferous racks Taym, they don’t look out of place at all.
I was hoping you would jump in that river and save that poor cone. Baywatch style 😂
😂😂😂😂 I spoke with him after😂😂 he was most disgruntled at me interrupting his bathing 😂😂😂 thanks ABD 😁
@@TAYM 😂😂😂
I said something similar but wanted to See 👀 HIM faff about & fall arse over kite trying to save cone 😁😆😂🤣.
@@ruahinesrider 😂😂😂
@@aussiebikerdude6563 😁
They both look good and are obviously excellent value, Taym. 👍 Marvellous! 😊
Thanks Chris 😁
Hello there we are Taym had the rack and rails from the start on Shuck . The rails I got first then rack the pannier rails are quite useful in a variety of ways..... happy motoring. Time to take the TAYMS motorcycle camping with Buddy.......🎉 I can see an episode like that.............🎉
Exactly 😁 Thanks Jay 😁
They look great, and good value.
I must have been unlucky because it soon became cleat that the Tec rack i bought for my Interceptor was not going to fit.
I considered redrilling the holes in the correct place but decided to send it back and get a givi rack.
Thanks Loki 😁 Interesting 🤔 How much was the Givi ?😁
Morning Mr TAYM,sounds like you got a good deal at that price and they look good as well,result👍
Thanks Lee 😁
Bang on value for sure! Can’t wait to see the bags!!
Thanks TBG 😁 Yes, bags, so many different ones 😁
Can't beat TEC parts I've got great parts quicker from them than I can from capital cities in Oz. Thanks TAYM.
TEC have some great stuff just don't buy their rear shocks they're crap better off with Hagon or YSS RZ series.
TEC also do how to videos as well & are quick delivery I got stuff off them too.
Brilliant 😁 Thanks DT 😁
Neat job , and practical stuff TAYM, yeah definitely better in black for a more discrete look and a bargain price, havea look at LOMO bags ,great value , totally waterproof and will fasten to anything , but don't get the 13lt size, they're too small , go for the 30 lt ones like I have on my Classic 350 , £75 for the pair 👍
All set to take Mrs TAYM on a camping trip eh ? 🤔😆
Thanks Mel 😁 Yes Ive seen the lomo bags, great value and very practice for winter 😁
TEC have always been great value , they make you feel you are paying a fair and realistic price rather than being massively overcharged like OEM accessories do... great company to deal with too.
Thanks Dave 😁 yes, very helpful and quick service 😁
Morning bud, has 2wheeledwillie still got his dyed panniers up for grabs 😂he's moving up near you he can drop them off for you 👍
Now there’s a point 🤔 Thanks Mark 😁
Rear rack much better than Triumph model which narrows at the back and makes it hard to attach bungees. It’s only saving grace is that it has narrow belt loops on the edges that can fit the lateral Velcro strap in my Oxford Travel bag.
Thanks Steve😁 yes, it at least means I can get a decent size roll top bag on the rack 😁
I bought both my Triumph centre stands from Tec Marvellous 😊
Thanks AR 😁
Your T100 is looking Bonny Mr TAYM 🤩
Thanks Bruce 😁
I have the same bike. I am about to fit upgraded rear shocks, (Ohlins in black/polished), and Motone pannier rails that look pretty much identical to the TEC rails. I already installed the Triumph rack stuff you mention and I agree the price if a bit hard to swallow. So, this is very helpful. I do like the fact that the OEM rack affair makes it very easy to take the actual rack portion on and off the bike. I installed chrome rack fittings but in retrospect I agree, black is the way to go. I may swap it all out for something black.
Thanks Rob 😁 yes, it would be handy to be able to remove the rack section . I think it being a T120 with more chrome/bare metal I would have gone chrome. 😁
Motone make some top quality stuff.I had a few bits off them on my old Interceptor very nice quality.
Try Matt at Classic Rides for bags. 👍 Great quality leather and canvas. Bought black 'Day Tripper' bags for my classic 350. Perfect look. 👌
Thanks Peter 😁 I will give a shout and see what he’s got😁
Bargain! Very practical upgrades and they don't detract from the lines of the bike either. 👍👍
Thanks GBD 😁
Trip machine Taym some created especially for the Bonnevilles . They are expensive but are rigorously made to deal with any of what you'd encounter in the field .
Cost a fortune though 😱 Thanks Jay 😁
@@TAYM OH I know I should send you a list with picks of the collection I got going on along with insight of use of each one why where - ie which bike uses what
@@jaysinhoffner2134 excellent
I got genuine used triumph rails and bags for £90 off Ebay and the pannier rails are twice as thick as those.
Thanks Patrick 😁 I thought of that but was to nervous they would be the wrong ones. Triumph have so many different part numbers for them.
Nice rack 😂 hope youre well ...will certainly invest in a pair when I get one
Thanks Tom 😁 hope fatherhood is going well 😁
@@TAYM tough but fun ! sure you remember 😀
@@tomstockell9481 like yesterday 😂😂
I hope yours are better quality than the ones I bought from Tec TAYM. I had the chrome ones and frankly they are junk the chrome finish was very poor and they are rusting after a year, I honestly wish I'd spent the money on either the Triumph rails or the Motone ones which are twice the price of the Tec ones but much much better quality. I use the Lomo throwover panniers on my Bonneville and although they don't look as good as some they are totally waterproof and huge and only about £60. I'll email you a pic of mine with the panniers and my drybag on.
Thanks Mike 😁 that’s interesting, Hopefully the painted ones will be better. Time will tell 😁
You can't complain about the price or looks of those racks. I've been looking for a rear rack for the Bullet and they are pretty pricy, probably because the bike isn't manufactured these days.
I'm probably going to stick my Giant Loop Great Basin on there when I find a rack. Yeah, it'll look strange, I'm sure, but there are no better rain proof luggage around, except for Mosko Moto and I'm going to put that set on the T7. You'll probably want some classy panniers and a separate bag for the rear rack.
I have thought about grabbing a set of the Lomo bags because they are so inexpensive. Someday I might get some nice canvas or leather bags. The bike came with leather panniers but they are floppy and kinda sad looking. 🤣 I dunno, time will tell.
Great purchase and install on those racks Mr TAYM!
Thanks PW 😁 I think I might try the lomo for wet winter days and have a more stylish set for drier days 😁
@@TAYM That sounds like a solid plan. 👍
TEC & Hepco Becker make good racks.
Ventura do a cheap pannier bags for about £90-£100 & look ok.
Thanks RR 😁 I shall look out for them 😁
Hi, just waiting for exactly the same to be delivered for my T100.
Here's a question for you, how do you find the gear selection, especially 1st. On my 2023 model it's very clunky. It's been back to the Triumph dealership to check and reported as normal.
Even with ear plugs and helmet on you can hear it and definitely feel selecting 1st.
Thanks A Campbell
Excellent 😁 The gear change on all the Triumph classic range bikes I have had and ridden has been really clunky 😁 It’s just the way they are. Sometimes you will get a quiet change and think hmm what’s wrong 😂😂😂 Thanks A 😁
Morning Mr Taym, , going to look at a T100 today , are you impressed with yours and is there anything to look out for Thanks KR
Thanks Kev 😁 I’ve had no problems at all. The slightly older ones (2016-2021) came with a centre stand, which is a bonus as they are a couple of hundred pounds to buy. On the new model they come with much better tyres than the Pirellithat or on mine. Saying that mine have been ok but are probably passed their best leading to some snaking. But the bike itself is fantastic and as I say, no problems at all. 😁
@@TAYM Thanks for quick reply, on my way for a shopping trip!!
@@keithrogers2107 😂😂 excellent 😁
Hi did you have any problems fitting the rear rack I have a t100 when I dropped the rear mudguard down to fit the rack .the mudguard won't line up the front bolt holes because the plastic seat cable release stay is hard up against the rack rail.did this happen to you . Regards Pete.
@@thelaterider.1046 thanks TLR 😁 I was a bit tricky but nothing to do with seat cable, more to do with getting the mudguard in the right position at the end closest to the front🤔 maybe the seat cable has been routed differently 🤔 thanks Pete 😁
Hi, have had exactly the same problem, the seat release cable stay hard up against the rack not allowing the holes to line up. I had to cut some of the plastic stay off with a Dremmel to be able to fit it. Also, how difficult is it to undo the electrical connector to the rear lights!!! That took longest of all.
Regards Nick
@@nickandrews9331 Thank you for the reply, l will do that and trim some off the plastic.i left the plug on and rested the mudguard on a towel on the back wheel.Thank you Regards Pete.
@@TAYM Thank you for the reply, Pete.
@@nickandrews9331 interesting 🤔 I hope I don’t have the same problem when I fit it to my new one🤔
Bloody hell what a lot of mucking about
😂😂😂 Thanks Frank 😁
