Fairing was off, I don't believe it's clutch noise. It's also way louder than normal tappet noise, I'll try and get a video. Inlets were all about...
Tensioner looks fine, it sounds like it's coming from the area of the top of the middle cylinder. It's weird that the tappets measure fine, It's...
Very close now. Got to get a fuel tap, there is a panel still drying that goes on the front of the fairing which will hide the wires. It all...
I had a nightmare when doing my bike, I discovered the average paint is not petrol proof, it just washes straight off. I also found that high...
Hi Guys, I posted about tappets yesterday, I have now had a better look (1998 Trophy 900). My clearances all check out spot on - 10-15 inlet,...
Thanks Nigel, my trident is slightly tappy but certainly not annoyingly so. This one sounds like Philthy Animal Taylor out of Motorhead banging a...
Hi Folks, got another project now - Trophy 900 with a very noisy top end and a stuck clutch. Clutch I expect to be a repeat of the trident and...
I'm not quite sure how this happened but I got another project last night - a 1998 900 Trophy with knackered clutch. Went to look at it and it...
Done a couple of minor jobs and some paint work today. I'm not the world's best sprayer sort of bloke type thing but I'm quite pleased with it,...
Doooh! that's them. Brilliant, that will save me a tenner or so. I couldn't find the blinkin flippin things :-)
Been a bit quiet this last week, still been working on it but not much worth photographing. The front brakes were a nightmare, now got the right...
Well it's nice to know the little buggers have taken an afternoon off from hiding my spanners.
Just as a sanity check there are 4 common things that can cause an overheat or look like an over heat - low coolant, faulty thermostat, faulty fan...
Brings back memories of my apprenticeship, we had half a dozen of the old Boxfords in what we used to call the Trog Shop. Happy days :-)
I understand your frustration, I am building a bike from a few boxes of bits. it can drive you mad at times. Help is here though, I agree with the...
Mine is a rather ancient but lightly used Henry Milnes screw cutter. It's got built in lever operated gear box, power feed and power cross slide,...
Thanks again. I did a bit more research and realised that the rear caliper is very similar to the fronts. it takes the same pads as the front...
That's brilliant, thank you so much. I will knock some up either this evening ot tomorrow. I realise now when I tried to measure it earlier it was...
Thanks Oldyam, I'm sure you are correct. What really puzzles me is that the pads for the rear are the same as the left front yet the rerar disc is...
Ok clever blokes, the front brakes are doing my crust in. The bike came with two calipers with Triumph embossed on them, it was fitted with 296mm...
