Hi,

I just bought a '96 Adventurer with 31000km on it. It original no mod's. Since I have for a month, the tach is going erratic at about 3000rpm. Before I took it out last week I washed it with s-100 cleaner for motorcycle. To my surprise the tach goes from 2000 to 5000 rpm as it was receiving some surcharge. The high temperature light came on also wich it never did before the wash. By the way ,I touroughly rinsed bike for soap residue. So this weekend I disconnected the tach (three pin white plug) to the tach and this morning, going to work, there is still somme movement of the needle in the tach, from 0 to 2000rpm.

HELP !!!

Great classic :razz:

Check also your LV electrical connections on your ignition coils..

They are located under the fuel tank on the right side

Concerning the ligting of the high temp, check if your bike is overheating or not
1st check your coolant level, both in tank an radiator
2nd check if your cooling fan is working

3rd ( most probable) If your bike is not actually overheating, it comes from insufficient ground on the wire harness.

Merci pour les commentaires, mais rien n'y va. J'ai mÃªme disconnectÃ© le tach. et l'aiguille saute encore mais de 0 Ã* 2000 rpm. Autre chose de bizarre, mon copain a une Legend 2000 dont le boÃ®tier du phare avant est mis Ã* la masse tandis que le mien ne l'est pas. Y a-t-il eu un Service bulletin Ã©mis par Triump Ã* ce sujet, si oui comment se le procurer ?

Merci Ã* l'avance
Michel

Va poser ta question chez les cousins franÃ§ais de TÃ*D, fait gaffe on est une bande de fous furieux, mais faut pas s'arrÃªter sur les gamineries des grands enfants que nous sommes ...@+
