How much extra did that Triumph logo add to the cost?

They are Triumph OEM, so plenty I'm sure. Bought them on eBay from Triumph of Seattle, saved $40+ from anywhere else I could find them. They had the "make offer" option, and I did. They accepted, so $40 less than Triumph website and others on eBay, free shipping, no tax. Still plenty pricey however at $100 each.

I had those same mirrors on my Speed Triple, and loved them.

I'm trying to be cool like you. Yes, I'm failing miserably, but I'm trying. :)

I'm getting a little hung up on the snake thing however.

Maybe, but there is nothing really unusual about the scene.

No, but from the way she is holding it, it looks like it was filmed with a much smaller snake and then the snake was enlarged.

I recently got to use fixxer's power bank to charge my phone, and it reminded me that I wanted one. :D

Plus, if you're gonna get one, might as well do it right. :cool:

Yeah. I've got 6400 mah on my note 3, and a spare ~8000 power pack. Between the two, I've never even thought about more. Guess I need to re-evaluate my device situation. Need more power sucking devices.....

Striple didn't take into account he doesn't have an RSV4 to jump start when he bought his, so yes, probably a little overkill...

...unless it gets him to the Andes and back. :shock:
