    Realistic Fuel Mileage?

    That's good numbers Tal, I'll never win an economy run, not when I'm 6'5" tall and weigh about 170 - 175kg (about 380lb) in full riding gear. Poor ole bike always thinks it's got 2 up!!

    Realistic Fuel Mileage?

    Hmmm, my all time average over 10,000k's of riding (6,000 miles) is 6.41L/100k's or in US speak, 36.7 US MPG. The bike has just over 16,000k (10,000 miles) on it now.

    Bevel Box circlip

    Well, according to the pic, the bearing is in there, then the seal and then the circlip, on the outside of the seal. It's not like that, (on mine) ya take the cover off, take out the spacer then the seal, the clip (if it's there must be further in, next to the bearing.

    Bevel Box circlip

    Just been looking at the parts diagram and I see there is a circlip (Part 11) in with the needle rollers. I've not seen this, I'd assume it's against the bearing edge to stop it coming out, but the diagram shows it in a different order? What the go?

    Quickshifter

    My scan tool can activate and deactivate the TSA. plus heaps of other 'dealer only' functions, like key coding service light reset. Hell, ya can even wind the speedo back if you do it early enough. Must be for demo bikes? It's a OBDSTAR iScan Triumph Motorcycle Diagnostic Scanner

    Quickshifter

    With a voltage drop like that I'd say the TSA just need to be relearned. Ya get the same thing when you disconnect the battery, the Cruise Control needs resetting too. Nashvegas is 100% correct. Start the bike and go for a ride, do not use the quickshifter while resetting it, you need about 10...

    Lube the splines...

    That mushroom one above is exactly how it is.

    Lube the splines...

    Haven't taken the bike for a proper test yet, maybe tomorrow, but there's a correction from yesterdays 'advice' re stud and cap. Well, consider me schooled! I backed that explanation because I was relying on an AI breakdown of the Triumph part numbers, and the **** thing completely hallucinated...

    Lube the splines...

    I was told the part number T3201277 is a Stud: M12 ENC SLV. The ENC part stands for encapsulated and the SLV stands for Silver. I'll have to order some and see what turns up.

    Lube the splines...

    I went off looking for possible replacement studs (T3201277) and I noticed the cap nut wasn't on the list of parts. I then find out the triumph stud comes complete with the cap nut chemically stuck onto the end of the stud. And apparently you just wind the new stud in like a bolt. So...

    Some more pic's of the jig in case anyone is interested.

    Lube the splines...

    Took it for a wee ride down the road, just to make sure I'd done everything up and to check for the noise. Only go to about 30kph and no noise, smooth as silk. Normally I hear it from about 50kph to 90kph and after that the wind noise is too much. Thing is I'm deaf as, and when I'm riding I...

    Lube the splines...

    Thanks guys. i cleaned up the studs and put some blue loktite on them. Went back together in about 3 minutes by myself. That jig holds it exactly where you want it and you can just move the wheel hub to line up the splines. The engine end universal was fine too, I've no idea what the noise...

    Lube the splines...

    I pulled the front off and out as well, bit of crud in there and stones. They've been flicked up off new seal and found their way into the driveshaft housing. It's open at the back, so It's always going to happen. Put some moly on each end of the drive shaft and I'm now into reassembly. So...

    Lube the splines...

    Hey guys, I'm doing the spline lube thing and also trying to track down a grinding noise, think I found it too. Couple of questions please, all my studs backed out, so I'm thinking why can't I re-install them like that? Just torque them to the stud setting. The noise isn't coming from the...
