Eliminating your air injection system helps improve the condition of your bike. It reduces the operating temperature, reduces the chance of your headers bluing, and decreases/eliminates popping during deceleration with aftermarket pipes. The British Customs Triumph Motorcycle Air Injection Removal Kit is an inexpensive upgrade that will make a big different on how your Triumph runs. This easy and simple fix is available to you for just $24.95-25.95. Click here for more details.

After relocating your turn signals, you may have noticed the unpleasant looking holes left behind in your Triumph’s rear end. British Customs has engineered Rear Turn Signal Block Offs that fit perfectly into the stock signals mounting location. Using our block offs will help create a finished look to your bike. These block offs are easy to install and remove, in case you ever want to return back to stock turn signals.

Late last year, we gave you a preview of our new Headlight Ears. We worked on them for some time to get them just right, but we are glad to announce that the Headlight Ears are ready for purchase! Expose your upper fork tubes and easily adjust your headlight position with the British Customs Triumph Motorcycle Headlight Ears. These Headlight Ears replace the factory headlight ears with billet components, allowing you to position the headlight 10mm closer to the bike.

Brian Daines from Oklahoma sent us this picture of his 2011 Triumph Thruxton. In addition to custom upgrades such as the best selling British Customs Predator Exhausts and BC Lucas Fender Eliminator Kit, Brian added a custom paint job, a pin stripe to the front fender, to complete the look of his Thruxton. What a beauty!
