Norman Hyde Hard Luggage For Triumph Thruxton

24 August 2007

Norman Hyde has expanded his range of hard luggage for post-1999 Bonnevilles to include a system for the Triumph Thruxton. While the Thruxton is designed to capture the essence of the café racer look, its 865cc air-cooled power plant is the most powerful of Triumph’s twin-cylinder line up and will certainly tempt many owners to go touring. Hyde has developed his system in conjunction with Italian luggage specialists Givi and these are the first, and quite possibly the only, option for fitting cases to the Bonneville available in the UK. His pannier racks are designed to accept Givi's Monokey hard luggage, which means that a single key not only locks the cases shut but also secures them to the racks. The Hyde racks have a black "powder coat" finish and fit directly to existing mounting points without the need to modify the machine. They are manufactured in the UK and incorporate stems so that the cases do not obscure the indicators.
