okay, not the bike's first, just mine. picked up my '01 ST with 14,500 miles on it and picked up the mobil one, filter, and plugs yesterday with around 15,100 total miles on the bike. are there any tips out there for me? will i have to pull fairings? how long should i warm it up prior to draining? torque on the drainplug/filter/plugs? i inquired with the dealer about a maintenance manual but they seemed more inclined to help me if i had a suzuki since that seemed to be their bread and butter.
also, the dealer where i bought it can't tell me if the 12k service has been accomplished. i do think i can hear a fair amount of valve tapping/clicking between 2000 and 3000 rpm...but as this is my first triumph i'm not sure what i should or should not be hearing. any thoughts?
thanks everyone - this site and the search button has been a godsend thus far!
