Hey fellas, I searched the forum, all the keywords I entered brought up results that have nothing to do with this. My triple has the light bulb on the top clamp,just above the ignition key hole. Never seen it light up, never known what it is. Any of you fellas that have an old gal like mine have any idea?
At a guess an immobiliser light, that’s been disconnected? But hopefully you’ll get a response from someone who has or does own one.
Yes I’d say crispey is right. There’s one on my 2001 Daytona but it’s fitted in the front fairing stay rather than on the top yoke. It doesn’t work now either as the crappy alarm has been removed.
Thanks for the response fellas, I guess that's what it is then, a non working security system. I gotta take a dive there this week at some point and change my broken clip ons for a new set, so I'll have to take the top yoke out. No idea how to do it, that nut with the multiple holes has to come off as well but I'll figure it out. Probably I'll find some wires or a connector under there... I wont plug it back in if that's the case. I read a lot of nightmares regarding security systems
You can get the special tool to remove the top nut from Triumph or there’s some people making replicas selling on eBay and the like. I got one from a machinist selling on eBay who makes a variety of special tools for various bikes.
For anyone else looking for a top nut tool, there’s one going on eBay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Triumph-...5f4abf6:g:lGIAAOSwL7lehyJq&LH_ItemCondition=4
