I thought that the Triumph gators were much thicker than the Ceriani. I was told off site someone here had them repro'd but haven't found out who. Where is the resto Poggers finding them? I have tried all the suppliers on the supplier page. I will check my friend's 1969 T120 Triumph and make sure anyway. Kevin

Kevin

Several years ago, a very good friend made a multipiece mold for the "68-69" bellows and reproduced them for me. I had several sets at one time but have since used them up or sold them to other Poggers. I will try to contact him again and see if he still can make these. They were so close to perfect, they even had "Italy" and the correct Serial Number inside;)

Kip: That would be great! I am sure if you wanted to make several Poggers would buy them or even maybe Al. I would take 2 sets for sure. Keep us informed. Kevin

Hi Kip,

I could use a few pair also! I looked for them at //www.motorrad-stemler.de , they had a few that were close ,but you could not be sure from their line drawings.
Thanks

Guy's, I put in a word to my plastics man and we'll see what he can do. Maybe we can get some more of these made!
