  1. Sprint Forum
    Hey y'all, I just purchased a 2000 Sprint ST. The previous owner bought it from an estate sale, and decided his best option was to drill out the fuel tank lock and seat lock since he didn't have the key to them. He did however have the key to the ignition....unfortunately, while trying that...

    Hi I have a 73 Bonnie, put in an electronic ignition, my second one. The bike runs great for a few hours than the ignition burns out, not sure why. I included 6V coils. Any ideas? thanks
  3. Air Cooled Twins Talk
    So I bought my lovely Scrambler about a year ago, and I want to change the location of the gauges further back towards the handlebars. Obviously the ignition is fastened directly to the fork sleeve/yoke (or whatever you call it), so I then need to replace this, and relocate the ignition. The...

    Hello, everyone! I rode into work today and was the key went into the ignition completely and all was normal. When I got back to my bike, I was only able to insert the key 70% in but am able to start the bike and operate it as normal. What could be the possible cause of this? Thank you!

    Hello all, I’m posting this to help other who might be experiencing the same issues the I recently occurred. My 2010 EFI (cable speedo) Bonneville experienced starting issues- having the ignition intermittently cut out mid-ride. With the key in the ignition, the bike remained dead with no oil...

    Hello, My 2005 Thruxton 900 is getting intermittent or no spark. It has been exposed to the elements this summer so keep that in mind when thinking of things that could go wrong. It may be something that is more externally exposed. Basically, the bike started to have trouble starting in the...

  12. Air Cooled Cruisers - America, Speedmaster
    I’m trying to do a spark plug change on my 06 Speedmaster and every video I find (for some reason there are very few Speedmaster vids out there) either there is no extra rod next to the spark plugs at all, or they have just a screw down in there and that’s it. This thing is in the way of me...
  13. Triumph Trident Forum
    Hi. I am looking for some advice. The igniter on my ‘94 750 Trident has died. Browsing around, units for the 900 seem readily available, but I can’t find any for the 750. They are different part numbers, and I expect the differences lie in the advance curves, but does anyone know if they are...

    Hey everyone! Been reading the forums for a while and this is my first time posting. This is also my first motorcycle so my apologies if I misdiagnose or are off about something. I bought a 2000 Adventurer a couple years ago with 41,000 miles on it that ran very well when I picked it up. About...
  16. Water Cooled Twins Technical Talk
    Hello all, Yesterday somebody attempted to steal my bike. I thought I had seen them and chased them off before they had a chance to do anything, but upon trying to insert the key to turn on the bike and move it, I had trouble even inserting the key let alone turning it. Upon further inspection...

    In the process of re-positioning the location of the ignition switch to the RHS, I discovered that the lead was too short. Classic problem for a 2001 Bonneville. Eventually I came to the conclusion that the easiest solution would be to extend the ignition main switch lead to 18 inches in total...
  18. Air Cooled Twins Talk
    Hi Everyone, I have a bit of head-scratcher regarding my bike; a 2002 Bonneville. About a week ago, I began noticing the bike struggling to start while hitting the ignition. It would click initially before turning over and starting. This problem was intermittent for a few days but then became...

    Hello, been reading this site for a while and decided to join tonight. I could use some help. I am trying to solve the dreaded off idle stutter that others seem to experience on my 2014 thruxton 900 EFI. I spent time tonight testing the coil and spark plug wires. I am not sure if I found...
