Too early in the ownership to be losing keys, eh!

Since you already have the duplicate for the tank it might be worthwhile getting a key duplicator to replicate it. No point going through Triumph. I mostly leave the tank unlocked now due to the trouble of taking out keys everytime I need a refill on the trip. For the main key my guess is not less than 45 days. I remember being told it gets ordered from UK.

Regarding the bhp differences, I remember reading through triumphrat extensively (many times over!) and many other forums but could not get anything that points to differences in parts, including airbox restriction like that for the stripple. In all probability it is just a difference in how its measured. A high breathing and exhaling setup, remap and air injection removal should make the ride smoother.

I'm definitely getting rid of the AI once my warranty is over, the lunginess at low speed and suspension are my two main gripes with the motorcycle.

Why do you want to do that (going to Triumph for duplicates) - both these keys are normal keys with out any transponder embedded. You can easily get a copy key made from one of the better key makers in any of the major cities in India. Just as Sting suggests

Use those (copies) on a regular basis and preserve the original duplicates for the sake of OEM/Originality.

Unless you want splurge some more money with Triumph

Yes for the sake of oem, I want the originals. I will be getting blanks for booth and get them cut here, still it's going to be 2k for them and waiting period of 30-45 days

re: Triumph Bonneville Discussion Thread: My "Black Bruiser" is SOLD !!!

Anyone managed to get a test drive of the street twins/T120s? Upon inquiry last month the new ones were to be available by the end of Feb 2016.

@mobike008: Had I joined the forum when you bought the bonneville I would've bombarded you with questions Excellent ownership thread on the Black Bruiser!

JKD, is it really the TOR? Sounds sweet, in fact the only aftermarket pipes that I liked. Can you please give more details.

Yes. TOR's are slip-on's. Think it costs 22-25k. There is also remap for TOR but I am yet to get it. Will get one this month when I take it for service.

Would you mind posting a better video clip. The earlier one was very short and inverted. Frankly, the ones I've heard on the net did not appeal to me at all, but this sounded quite bassy and good. Will be great if you could put up a longer clip. Thanks a bunch

Triumph sells it TOR stands for Triumph Off Road, they are not stock and street legal so sold as accessory. Two of my friends have the same silencer.

Looks same as OE, only the exit hole is slightly different. But sounds gorgeous.

Jaggu is this the same pipes that Triumph has been selling from the time they launched in India? There was a pipe priced similarly at 20-22K which also required a small ECU remap?

Or, is this TOR a new offering from Triumph?

It is the same one that is/was sold by Triumph. Don't remember about remap part though.
