    A couple of months back I removed the clutch to put an oil seal in behind. The previous owner appeared to of missed it and when it ran I had an oil issue anyhow I think it missing the oil seal was that problem. So I put it back together followed all the correct steps etc. Ive been busy with...

    Other than asking local dealer. Does anyone know where I can buy parts from regarding a new clutch cover casing? I’ve scratched mine and my ocd can’t handle it 😂. Cheers
  3. Tiger 1200 - Mods & Workshop
    Hi all, brand new member and in a bit of a head scratcher. I have a 2019 Triumph Tiger 1200, and my 4th gear has developed a clicking or tapping sound. It only happens in 4th gear, clutch in or out, and acceleration or deceleration. I haven't noticed any particular power loss in 4th, although...
  4. Maintenance & Workshop Talk
    I bought the bike that had 17,000kms I do mostly commuting mix of traffic and highway, i don't ride insanely hard; more like a experienced rider who occasionally gets impatient. When I bought the bike the friction point was quite high, I leveraged this on the seller saying the clutch is worn...
  5. Tiger 900 Mods & Workshop
    I have a specific question regarding disengaging the set cruise control using the clutch - I am aware of the 3 methods of disengaging CC; I prefer using the clutch since (in my experience with other bikes) it is the smoothest way to disengage. The question is - how much clutch pull do you (who...
  6. Street Triple Forum
    Hey everyone! I have a 2018 Street Triple S, and it is no problem for me to power wheelie the bike. The problem comes when I try to clutch up. In any gear if i let the clutch a bit rough (as when we wheelie), I hear a loud CLACK, and the bike does not go even a inch up. I also tried to...
  7. Speed Triple Forum
    Hello everyone, Appreciate the friendly community here. 1 month ago, I bought a Speed Triple 1050 SE, with 18k KM clocked. Previous owner didn't express any issue and bike is relatively new for this age of bike. However, I've been taking it on long and frequent rides, and I noticed an...
  8. Hinckley Classic Triples
    Hi folks, Looking for some insight on this. Quick explanation: This bike is somewhat new to me. My dad (original owner) gave it to me 4 years ago, same week my son was born. This past spring I finally got my ducks in order and started riding it. Prior to doing so, I went through all the...
  9. Street Triple Forum
    Hi Everyone! Looking for the proper name of this part (or part #) indicated in the image below. I recently swapped out the oil sump gasket, all engine cover gaskets, and the bolts holding the sump in place. Thinking, that I had finally gotten rid of the infamous oil leaks. Wrong! After a...
  10. Street Triple Forum
    Hi everyone, I'm trying to replace my friction plates and I of course need to get the clutch cover off. I took off all the bolts and all and the cover is loose and has some movement (so it's not stuck to the gasket), but it won't come off. I think the spring/swivel arm is what's stopping it from...

    I have a 2019 800 XCA. I can and sometimes do clutchless upshifts on the road,nothing feels like it is being stressed. I don't downshift without a clutch on the road, when I think about it that just sounds iffier. But how about off road? There's a lot more free play between the rear wheel...

    After replacing the clutch plates, I am unable to fit the clutch cover making sure the shaft and pull rod engage. If I move the clutch actuator out of the way, I can seat the clutch cover, but then cannot move the clutch actuator into the right position, it just gets stuck. I tried pulling on...

    My first posting here in this excellent forum where I have already read so much good advice, so, a thank-you in advance for all the shared experience and I hope you can offer some ideas and suggestion to my points below. I’ve been biking on and off (in every sense) for fifty years. Each...
  15. Water Cooled Twins Technical Talk
    Right... I posted a few weeks ago asking for advice as my street twin had begun to make a metallic whurring noise at around 4000rpm (in any gear & neutral). No other noticeable/related issues ie drop off in power etc etc. The resounding response was "its under warranty, just take it back to...
  16. Water Cooled Twins Technical Talk
    I recently changed the tires on my street twin. Got the wheels back, threw them back on, then headed out... I cant see how it would be related, but after a few miles I began to notice a strange (and loud) wurring noise at around 3500rpm. Initially I thought it may have been the air vibrating...
  17. Speed Triple Forum
    Hey everyone! I recently purchased my first Triumph in the form of a lovely Sulphur Yellow Speed Triple. Unfortunately I only had the bike a week before I had clutch issues. I tear into it and turns out the clutch nut had come loose. I ordered a new one and installed it but it doesn't seem quite...
  18. Air Cooled Cruisers - America, Speedmaster
    Hi there. My Speedmaster 865 has a slippery clutch due to worn out plates. Couldn't find a thread about the actual replacement job. Want to give it a go anytime soon. Any advise on this job is welcome. Tnx in advance.
  19. Street Triple Forum
    Considering getting some new levers for my 2014 Street Triple R. I really dig the OEM shorty levers, but the only place I've found that has them is selling them for $180. If I'm going to pay that price I'm wondering if another brand might offer better bang for the buck?
  20. Classic, Vintage & Veteran
    I changed the clutch plates and springs. Adjusted the cable and now find that, although the outer cap plate lifts evenly when pulling the clutch lever, the rear wheel is still not rotating when in gear. Am I missing something about this? There were some wear marks in the clutch basket grooves...
