Over the last couple of weeks the bike has not been going "well"
It was missing sometimes, and sort of "hung back" when opening the throttle...
It was even getting worse, until last week it would only work if the throttle was cracked open.

- I had even asked here "I always use the kill switch, is this a possible reason? "
Diego, of Georgia, USA had replied on the posting "I wouldn't say it's impossible, but it doesn't seem too likely. Starting and idle are the most likely to be affected. "
Thanks bro', you were spot on. It was not the problem.

I was clutching at straws!

The shop could not find the problem, and Triumph's first advice was to take it on a ride to see if it gets better or worse!!!
I was not happy !

Today the owner brought his own rocket in, and the mechanic swapped tanks and pumps...... magic, problem solved.

New pump on order, and a loan of a 1200 Trophy until the pump comes from across the water.
