Master brake cylinder chrome cover

[Adriano]

Hi all,

Please bear with me here. I got a master cylinder cover for my R3T and I feel I bit confused by two parts that came with it. Part number A9738069
I did some research online but couldn't find installation instructions. The two parts are a black, plastic washer (spacer?) And a ribbed chrome sleeve. Both are in the picture attached to this post.
Where do those go???

And yes, I realize I may get publicly shamed for this so bring it on!

The ribbed part is for your mirrors....

The ribbed part is for your mirrors....

Agreed. The ribbed part is a bushing that adds some friction when you swing your mirror.

Thanks for the hint! I did not know about this site. And it didn't pop up in my search.
I got the part from a local Triumph dealer.

You are correct! Apparently, it's called a 'tolerance ring'... And, according to the instructions, one is supposed to replace the original ring once it's taken out...

The black, plastic washer/spacer thing is the mirror fitting tool.... And it's supposed to replace the original one once the mirror is out...

I guess it's fair to assume those two parts tend to get damaged once removed and Triumph added the replacement to the kit...
