Pt.4: Triumph Bonneville 865 - Performance Upgrades
All of my bike videos will be on my new channel here: @WatsonMoto
Today I am fitting a collection of easy modifications to make the bunny run smoother and have that Biot more power I'm looking for. Chris from Ultimate Twin Performance came over to help me load the map and off I went.
For all the upgrades shown and any information visit UTP below:

Have done the same tune on mine here in nz. Goes real well now. Smoother low speed running and more torque and power when needed

It’s great isn’t it! Loving mine!
I have a 2014 T100. Installed a K&N filter and Progressive suspension. Runs great as is. If I want more power, I will ride my Honda Valkyrie or BMW 1200RT.
On the air box the air snorkel tube actually comes off the outer casing so you don't need to buy the adaptor. Fitting the K&N air filter makes a lovely sound when you open it up, ive got the carb model so I had to re jet it. Changed the exhaust, all the upgrades makes the bonnie a. Great bike.
Interesting video… I installed a booster plug, sorted out the juddering in low gears, better throttle response,no re-map needed.

Yeah I had one of those on my previous bike. To me it didn’t seem to do all that much
Glad to see you loving the MODS!

Thanks buddy! Yeah well worth doing!
That's the spirit , lad. Good to see you making it the way you want it. I've read conflicting advice on whether to remove the air baffle. Some say it lets more air in. Other say it creates turbulence in the air and so doesn't really let more air in. I wonder if anybody ever put one on the dyno with and without the air baffle and compared the results.
Have a very similar model, definitely need to do some of these mods!

Thanks buddy! They are great cans!
Great mod.
I'm thinking of getting one of these after owning an interceptor 650 and then moto guzzi v7. Your videos are really helpful and definitley helping me towards pulling the trigger on one of these bikes knowing the process I could potentially go through with the same bike. Thanks 👌 Pops and Bangs sound cool but I agree with you it can get tiresome, almost like having a pop bang map 😂😂

Ay!! Thank you so much. Cheers for watching. Yeah it’s a gray characterful bike at a good price. Yeah I liked the pops but knowing that it was an electrical system creating, I didn’t mind removing it. 👍
Проблема мощности 865 в том, что стоят 36мм дросселя. Для такого объема это очень мало (для сравнения на yamaha r6 600сс с 4 цилиндрами диаметр дросселя 38-40мм в зависимости от года). Это сильно ограничивает пиковую мощность триумфа. Плюс распредвалы с достаточно узкой фазой. И клапана для такого диаметра цилиндра не такие уж большие. Это значительно ограничивает продувку на больших оборотах, но зато добавляет тягу на низких оборотах, так же делает полку момента очень ровной и предсказуемой

Have you changed the seat?
Hey, what rear luggage rack did you use? I can't find any in stock that fit my 2012 Bonneville 865!

I have to say I’m not sure sorry I got it secondhand. It also wasn’t perfect had to make some adjustments.
Hi..hab die gleichen motorrad gekauft wie deiner, wo krieg ich dem gleichen auspuff zukaufen wie bei dir? Sorry für mein englisch 😊😊😊
The only thing I saw was wrong in this video was the HARLEY DAVIDSON tee shirt, of coure it could be your work shirt since that's where Harleys spend a lot of their time.I hope you have a TRIUMPH tee shirt when you are out riding.hahaha.
