99% of the time my bike runs great! Then every now and then it idles rough and even stalls. When I turn the bike off then back on, it usually takes care of it. Anyone else have this problem? I always use the same gas from the same place.

My bike does the same thing. I am most at risk when in stop and go traffic.

Mine has been doing it all along but it's worse now at 2,000 miles. Starts hard too. I'm taking it to the only Triumph dealer in the state tomorrow for servicing.

Hi Guys,

Try this - for a week - don't use the kill switch or kick stand kill switch.

The problems with rough idle and stumble will stop. After a week or so of using only the ignition switch then take it to the dealership., but about 99% certain you won't need to.

Agree. This, at least, was the unanimously recognized solution to erratic idling when this forum started. I always use the ignition switch key and I never experienced such a problem :wink:

Had the same thing happen to me. In the end the dealer diagnosed incorrect voltages to primary and secondary throttles. Runs and ticks over sweet now
