Introduction
This manual is designed primarily for use by trained
technicians in a properly equipped workshop. However, it
contains enough detail and basic information to make it
useful to the owner who desires to perform his own basic
maintenance and repair work. The work can only be
carried out if the owner has the necessary hand and
special service tools to complete the job.
A basic knowledge of mechanics, including the proper use
of tools and workshop procedures is necessary in order to
carry out maintenance and repair work satisfactorily.
Whenever the owner has insufficient experience or doubts
his ability to do the work, an authorised Triumph dealer
must undertake all adjustments, maintenance, and repair
work.
In order to perform the work efficiently and to avoid costly
mistakes, read the text and thoroughly familiarise yourself
with procedures before starting work.
All work should be performed with great care and in a
clean working area with adequate lighting.
Always use the correct special service tools or equipment
specified. Under no circumstances use makeshift tools or
equipment since the use of substitutes may adversely
affect safe operation.
Where accurate measurements are required, they can
only be made using calibrated, precision instruments.
For the duration of the warranty period, an authorised
Triumph dealer must perform all repairs and scheduled
maintenance.
To maximise the life of your Motorcycle:
•
Accurately follow the maintenance
requirements of the periodic maintenance
chart in the service manual.
• Do not allow problems to develop.
Investigate unusual noises and changes in the
riding characteristics of the motorcycle.
Rectify all problems as soon as possible
(i mmediately if safety related).
• Use only genuine Triumph parts as listed in
the parts catalogue/parts microfiche.
•
Follow the procedures in this manual
carefully and completely. Do not take short
cuts.
• Keep complete records of all maintenance
and repairs with dates and any new parts
installed.
•
Use only approved lubricants, as specified in
the owner's handbook, in the maintenance of
the motorcycle.

Introduction
Tampering with Noise Control
System Prohibited
Owners are warned that the law may prohibit:
a)
The removal or rendering inoperative by any
person other than for purposes of maintenance,
repair or replacement, of any device or element of
design incorporated into any new vehicle for the
purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery
to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use; and
b)
the use of the vehicle after such device or element
of design has been removed or rendered
inoperative by any person.
References
References to the left-hand or right-hand side given in this
manual are made when viewing the motorcycle from the
rear.
Operations covered in this manual do not always include
reference to testing the motorcycle after repair. It is
essential that work is inspected and tested after
completion and if necessary a road test of the motorcycle
is carried out particularly where safety related items are
concerned.
Dimensions
The dimensions quoted are to design engineering
specification with service limits where applicable.
During the period of running-in from new, certain
adjustments may vary from the specification figures given
in this manual. These will be reset by the dealer at the 500
mile/800 km service, and thereafter should be maintained
at the figures specified in this manual.
Repairs and Replacements
Before removal and disassembly, thoroughly clean the
motorcycle. Any dirt entering the engine or other parts
will work as an abrasive and shorten the life of the
motorcycle. Particular attention should be paid when
installing a new part, that any dust or metal filings are
cleared from the immediate area.
Force
Common sense should dictate how much force is
necessary in assembly and disassembly. If a part seems
especially difficult to remove or install, stop and examine
what may be causing the problem. Never lever a
component as this will cause damage both to the
component itself and to the surface being levered against.
Whenever tapping to aid removal of an item is necessary,
tap lightly using a hide or plastic faced mallet.
Edges
Watch for sharp edges, especially during engine
disassembly and assembly. Protect the hands with
industrial quality gloves.
When replacement parts are required, it is essential that
only genuine Triumph parts are used.
Safety features and corrosion prevention treatments
embodied in the motorcycle may be impaired if other
than genuine Triumph parts are fitted. In certain territories,
legislation prohibits the fitting of parts not to the
manufacturer's specification.
Tightening procedure
Generally, when installing a part with several bolts, nuts or
screws, they should all be started in their holes and
ti
ghtened to a snug fit, evenly and in a cross pattern. This
is to avoid distortion of the part and/or causing gas or oil
leakage. Conversely, bolts, nuts, or screws, should all be
loosened (in sequence if specified) by about a quarter of a
turn and then removed.
Where there is a tightening sequence specified in this
Service Manual, the bolts, nuts, or screws must be
ti
ghtened in the order and by the method indicated.
Torque wrench setting figures given in this Manual must
be observed. The torque tools used must be of accurate
calibration.
Locking devices, where specified, must be fitted. If the
efficiency of a locking device is impaired during removal it
must be renewed. This applies particularly to micro-
encapsulated fixings which must always be replaced if
disturbed. Where necessary, the text in this manual will
indicate where such a fixing is used.

General Information
Ignition System Safety Precautions
Fluoroelastomers
Warning
The ignition system produces extremely high voltages.
Do not touch any part of the ignition system or any
cables while the engine is running.
An electric shock caused by contact with the ignition
system may lead to illness, injury or death.
Q Warning
Wearers of surgically implanted heart pacemaker
devices should not be in close proximity to ignition
circuits and or diagnostic equipment.
The ignition system and any diagnostic equipment may
interrupt the normal operation of such devices causing
ill ness or death.
Dangerous Substances
•
A Warning
Many liquids and other substances used in motor
vehicles are poisonous and should under no
circumstances be consumed and should, as far as
possible, be kept from contact with the skin. These
substances among others include acid, anti-freeze,
asbestos, brake fluid, fuel, lubricants, and various
adhesives. Always pay close attention to the instructions
printed on container labels and obey the instructions
contained within. These instructions are included for
your safety and well-being.
NEVER DISREGARD THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Third Party Products
Q
Warning
Many propriety products, such as chemicals, solvents
and cleaning agents, will cause damage to components
if used incorrectly or inappropriately. Always follow the
manufacturer's instructions printed on the product
container's labels and obey the instructions given. These
instructions are included for your safety and well-being.
Damage to the motorcycle components caused by the
incorrect or inappropriate use of chemicals, solvents and
cleaning agents may reduce the components efficiency,
resulting in loss of motorcycl
e c o
ntr
o
l and an accident.
Warning
Fluoroelastomer material is used in the manufacture of
various seals in Triumph motorcycles.
In fire conditions involving temperatures greater than
315°C this material will decompose and can then be
potentially hazardous. Highly toxic and corrosive
decomposition products, including hydrogen fluoride,
carbonyl fluoride, fluorinated olefins and carbon
monoxide can be generated and will be present in
fumes from fires.
In the presence of any water or humidity hydrogen
fl
uoride may dissolve to form extremely corrosive liquid
hydrofluoric acid.
If such conditions exist, do not touch the material and
avoid all skin contact. Skin contact with liquid or
decomposition residues can cause painful and
penetrating burns leading to permanent, irreversible
skin and tissue damage.
Oils
AWarning
The engine and bevel box oils may be hot to the touch.
Contact with hot oil may cause the skin to be scalded or
burned.
Ak
Warning
Prolonged or repeated contact with engine oil can lead
to skin dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition used
engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants
which can cause cancer. Wear suitable clothing and
avoid skin contact.
Health Protection Precautions
•
Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with
oils, particularly used engine oils.
• Wear
protective clothing, including
i
mpervious gloves where practicable.
•
Do not put oily rags in pockets.
• Overalls must be
cleaned regularly. Discard
heavily soiled clothing and oil impregnated
footwear.
•
First aid treatment should be obtained
i
mmediately for open cuts and wounds.
Always be aware of who your nearest first-

General Information
aider is and where the medical facilities are
kept.
•
Use barrier creams, applying before each
work period to protect the skin from the
effects of oil and grease and to aid removal of
the same after completing work.
• Wash with soap and water to ensure all oil is
removed (skin cleansers and nail brushes will
help). Preparations containing lanolin replace
the natural skin oils which have been
removed.
•
Do not use petrol, kerosene, diesel fuel, gas
oil, thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.
•
If
skin disorders develop, obtain medical
advice without delay.
•
Where practicable, de-grease components
prior to handling.
Warning
Any risk of eye injury must be avoided. Always wear eye
protection when using a hammer, air line, cleaning
agent or where there is ANY risk of flying debris or
chemical splashing.
Environmental Protection
Precautions
A
Caution
Do not pour oil on the ground, down sewers or drains,
or into water courses. To prevent pollution of water-
courses etc., dispose of used oil sensibly. If in doubt
contact your local
aut
h
o
rity.
Burning of used engine oil in small space heaters or
boilers can be recommended only for units of approved
design. If in doubt, check with the appropriate local
authority and/or manufacturer of the approved appliance.
Dispose of used oil and used filters through authorised
waste disposal contractors, to licensed waste disposal sites,
or to the waste oil reclamation trade. If in doubt, contact
your local authority for advice on disposal facilities.
Brakes
A Warning
Brake fluid is hygroscopic which means it will absorb
moisture from the air. Any absorbed moisture will
greatly reduce the boiling point of the brake fluid
causing a reduction in braking efficiency.
Replace brake fluid in line with the routine maintenance
schedule. A dangerous riding condition could result if
this important maintenance item is neglected!
Do not spill brake fluid onto any area of the bodywork
as this will damage any painted or plastic surface.
Always use new brake fluid from a sealed container and
never use fluid from an unsealed container or from one
that has been previously opened.
Do not mix different brands of fluid. Check for fluid
leakage around brake fittings, seals and joints.
Check regularly for brake hose damage.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE ANY OF THE ABOVE
WARNINGS MAY REDUCE BRAKING EFFICIENCY
LEADING TO AN ACCIDENT
Ak
Warning
I
If there has been an appreciable drop in the level of the
fluid in either brake fluid reservoir, consult your
authorised Triumph dealer for advice before riding.
If the brake lever or pedal feels soft when it is applied, or
if the lever/pedal travel becomes excessive, there may
be air in the brake lines or the brake may be defective.
It is dangerous to operate the motorcycle under such
conditions and remedial action must be taken by your
authorised Triumph dealer before riding the motorcycle.
Failure to take remedial action may reduce braking
effi
c
i
e
n
cy l
eading
to a n
acc
i
dent.
AWarning
Use only DOT 4 specification brake fluid as listed in the
general information section of this manual. The use of
brake fluids other than those DOT 4 fluids listed in the
general information section may reduce the efficiency of
the braking system leading to an accident.
Failure to change the brake fluid at the interval specified
in the routine maintenance schedule may reduce
braking efficiency resulting in an
acc

General Information
Warning
Never use mineral based grease in any part of the
braking system or in any area where contact with the
braking system is possible. Mineral based grease will
damage the hydraulic seals in the calipers and master
cylinders.
Damage caused by contact with mineral based grease
may redu c
e braking efficiency resulting in an accident.
Warning
Before installation, all internal brake components should
be cleaned and lubricated with clean new DOT 4 brake
fluid.
Never use solvents, petrol (gasoline), engine oil, or any
other petroleum distillate on internal brake components
as this will cause deterioration of the hydraulic seals in
the calipers and master cylinders.
A dangerous riding condition leading to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident could result if this
warning is ignored.
Safety Instructions
Jacking and Lifting
J
Warning
Always ensure that any lifting apparatus has adequate
load and safety capacity for the weight to be lifted.
Ensure the motorcycle is well supported to prevent any
possibility of the machine falling during lifting or jacking,
or while repairs and servicing are carried out.
Never rely on a single means of support when working
with the motorcycle. Use additional safety supports and
straps to prevent toppling.
Do not leave tools, lifting equipment, spilt oil, etc. in a
place where they could become a hazard to health.
Always work in a clean, tidy area and put all tools away
when the work is finished.
Precautions against Damage
Avoid spilling brake fluid or battery acid on any part of the
bodywork. Wash spillages off with water immediately.
Disconnect the battery earth lead before starting work, see
ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS.
Always use the recommended service tool where
specified.
Protect exposed bearing and sealing surfaces, and screw
threads from damage.
Coolant
Warning
Coolant mixture, which is blended with anti-freeze and
corrosion inhibitors contains toxic chemicals which are
harmful to the human body. Never swallow anti-freeze,
corrosion inhibitors or any of th
e m o
t
o
r
cyc
l
e
coolant.
AWarning
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
When the engine is hot, the coolant inside the radiator is
hot and also under pressure. Contact with the
pressurised coolant will cause scald
s
and skin damage.
Caution
The coolant anti-freeze contains a corrosion inhibitor
which helps prevent damage to the metal surfaces inside
the cooling system. Without this inhibitor, the coolant
would 'attack the metals and the resulting corrosion
would cause blockages in the cooling system leading to
engine overheating and damage. Always use the correct
anti-freeze as specified in the Owner's Handbook.
Never use a methanol based anti-freeze as this does not
contain the required corrosion inhibition properties.
A Caution
Distilled water must be used with the anti-freeze (see
specification for anti-freeze) in the cooling system.
If hard water is used in the system, it causes scale
accumulation in the water passages, and considerably
reduces the efficiency of the cooling system. Reduced
cooling system efficiency may lead to the engine
overheating
an
d
engine damage.

UMP

General Information
Cleaning Components
A high flash-point solvent is recommended to reduce fire
hazard.
Always follow container directions regarding the use of
any solvent.
Always use the recommended cleaning agent or
equivalent.
Do not use degreasing equipment for components
containing items which could be damaged by the use of
this process. Whenever possible, clean components and
the area surrounding them before removal. Always
observe scrupulous cleanliness when cleaning dismantled
components.
Lubrication
The majority of engine wear occurs while the engine is
warming up and before all the rubbing surfaces have an
adequate lubrication film. During assembly, oil or grease
(whichever is more suitable) should be applied to any
rubbing surface, which has lost its lubrication film. Old
grease and dirty oil should be cleaned off. This is because
used lubricants will have lost some lubrication qualities
and may contain abrasive foreign particles.
Use recommended lubricants. Some oils and greases in
particular should be used only in certain applications and
may be harmful if used in an application for which they
are not intended. This manual makes reference to
molybdenum disulphide grease in the assembly of certain
engine and chassis parts. Always check manufacturer
recommendations before using such special lubricants.
Joints and Joint Faces
Assemble joints dry unless otherwise specified in this
manual.
If gaskets and/or jointing compound is recommended for
use, remove all traces of old jointing material prior to re-
assembly. Do not use a tool which will damage the joint
faces and smooth out any scratches or burrs on the joint
faces using an oil stone. Do not allow dirt or jointing
material to enter any tapped holes.
Gaskets, 0-rings
Do not re-use a gasket or O-ring once it has been in
service. The mating surfaces around the gasket should be
free of foreign matter and perfectly smooth to avoid oil or
compression leaks.
Liquid Gasket, Non-permanent Locking Agent
Follow manufacturer's directions for cleaning and
preparing surfaces where these compounds will be used.
Apply sparingly as excessive amounts of sealer may block
engine oil passages and cause serious damage.
Prior to re-assembly, blow through any pipes, channels or
crevices with compressed air.
,A
Warning
To prevent injury, always use eye, face and ear
protection when using compressed air. Always wear
protective gloves if the compressed air is to be directed
in proximity to the skin.
Screw Threads
Metric threads to ISO standard are used.
Damaged nuts, bolts and screws must always be
discarded.
Castellated nuts must not be slackened back to accept a
split-pin, except in those recommended cases when this
forms part of an adjustment.
Do not allow oil or grease to enter blind threaded holes.
The hydraulic action on screwing in the bolt or stud could
split the housing.
Always tighten a nut or bolt to the recommended torque
figure. Damaged or corroded threads can affect the
torque reading.
Unless specified, threaded fixings must always be fitted
dry (no lubrication).
A
Warning
Never lubricate a thread unless instructed to do so.
When a thread of a fixing is lubricated, the thread
friction is reduced.
When the fixing is tightened,
reduced friction will cause overtightening and possible
fixing failure.
A fixing which fails in service could cause component
detachment leading to loss of
co

General Information
Locking Devices
Always release locking tabs and fit new locking washers,
do not re-use locking tabs.
Fitting a Split Pin
Always fit new split-pins of the correct size for the hole in
the bolt or stud. Do not slacken back castle nuts when
fitting split pin, except in those recommended cases when
this forms part of an adjustment.
Always fit new roll pins of an interference fit in the hole.
Circlips, Retaining Rings
Replace any circlips and retaining rings that are removed.
Removal weakens and deforms circlips causing looseness
in the circlip groove. When installing circlips and retaining
rings, take care to compress or expand them only enough
to install them.
Always use the correct replacement circlip as
recommended in the Triumph Parts Catalogue.
Self Locking Nuts
Self-locking nuts can be re-used, providing resistance can
be felt when the locking portion passes over the thread of
the bolt or stud.
DO NOT re-use self-locking nuts in critical locations, e.g.
suspension components. Always use the correct
replacement self-locking nut.
Encapsulated Bolts
An encapsulated bolt can be identified by a coloured
section of thread which is treated with a locking agent.
Unless a specified repair procedure states otherwise,
encapsulated bolts cannot be reused and MUST be
replaced if disturbed or removed.
A .
Warning
Failure to replace an encapsulated bolt could lead to a
dangerous riding condition.
Always replace
encapsulated bolts.
Oil and Grease Seals
Replace any oil or grease seals that are removed.
Removal will cause damage to an oil seal which, if re-used,
would cause an oil leak.
Ensure the surface on which the new seal is to run is free
of burrs or scratches. Renew the component if the original
sealing surface cannot be completely restored.
Protect the seal from any surface which could cause
damage to the seal lips when it is being fitted. Use a
protective sleeve or tape to cover the relevant surface and
avoid touching the sealing lip.
Lubricate the sealing lips with a recommended lubricant.
This will help to prevent damage in initial use. On dual
li
pped seals, smear the area between the lips with
appropriate grease.
When pressing in a seal which has manufacturer's marks,
press in with the marks facing out.
Seals must be pressed into place using a suitable driver.
Use of improper tools will damage the seal.
Press
A part installed using a press or driver, such as a wheel
bearing, should first be coated with oil or grease on its
outer or inner circumference so that it will locate smoothly.
Ball Bearings
When installing a ball bearing, the bearing race which is
an interference fit should be pushed by a suitable driver.
This prevents severe stress or damage to the load
carrying components. Press a ball bearing until it touches
the shoulder in the bore or on the shaft.
Press or drift seals to the depth of its housing, with the
sealing lip facing the lubricant to be retained if the
housing is shouldered, or flush with the face of the
housing where no shoulder is provided.
Chassis Bearing Lubrication
Note:
•
This information relates only to bearing
lubrication. For the procedures necessary to
replace a bearing, always refer to the
relevant section of this service manual.
•
Bearings
installed in engine and
transmission applications are not covered by
this information. Refer to the lubrication
chapter or the relevant engine chapter for
additional information.
General
For a bearing to be serviceable for its anticipated life span
it must be checked, adjusted and lubricated at regular
intervals, as specified in the service schedules given in the
owner's handbook and this service manual.
A correctly lubricated bearing will have a film of
lubrication that separates the moving parts, disperses heat
and protects the bearing surfaces from corrosion.
Note:
•
In all cases, use the lubricant recommended
in the service manual.
•
Grease the bearing, not the cavity where it
is located.
1.8
Service Manual - Daytona 675, Street Triple and Street Triple R
lliMP

General Information
•
A bearing that is not regularly checked and
lubricated will have a reduced life span.
New Bearings
New bearings are typically protected with an oil
preservative to prevent corrosion etc. during storage. This
is NOT the lubrication for the bearing but DOES NOT
need to be washed off prior to assembly and in-service
lubrication.
When lubricating a new bearing with grease the following
steps should be taken:
1. Do not clean off the oil preservative.
2.
Grease must be forced between the roller elements
and the roller cage.
3. Rotate the bearing to ensure that the grease is
distributed over the entire circumference of the
internal parts.
4. Any excess grease should be smeared on the outside
of the rollers.
Lubrication and Checks While Servicing a Bearing
1.
Disassemble parts as necessary to access the
bearing. Refer to the relevant service manual.
2. Inspect the old grease covering the bearing, looking
for signs of bearing damage, i.e. flakes or specks of
metal.
3.
Remove the old grease.
4.
Check the bearing for smooth operation and visually
check for corrosion, dents and flaking in the bearing
race, rollers or cage. Replace if necessary. Refer to
the relevant service manual.
Below/overleaf several common bearing types and the
lubrication procedures for each are identified:
eon
Sealed bearings (wheel bearings & swinging arm,
depending on the model)
Note:
•
Sealed bearings can be identified by their
integrated seals.
•
Sealed bearings are lubricated for life by the
manufacturer.
•
Any attempt to change the grease in a
sealed bearing will damage the integrated
seals. If the seals are damaged dirt and
water will ingress and the life of the bearing
will be greatly reduced.
ceon
Taper bearings (swinging arm
& headstock,
depending on the model)
1.
Grease must be forced between the inner race and
the roller carrier.
2.
Rotate the bearing to ensure that the grease is
distributed over the entire circumference of the
internal parts.
3.
Any excess grease should be smeared on the outside
of the rollers.
1
Angular contact and ball bearings (headstock)
1.
Grease the bearing races and the ball bearing carrier.

Fuel Handling Precautions
General
The following information provides basic precautions
which must be observed if petrol (gasoline) is to be
handled safely. It also outlines other areas of risk which
must not be ignored. This information is issued for basic
guidance only and, if in doubt, appropriate enquiries
should be made of your local Fire Officer.
Petrol - Gasoline
When petrol (gasoline) evaporates it produces 150 times
its own volume in vapour which when diluted with air
becomes a readily ignitable mixture. The vapour is heavier
than air and will always fall to the lowest level. It can
readily be distributed throughout any indoor environment
by air currents, consequently, even a small spillage of
petrol (gasoline) is potentially very dangerous.
Warning
Petrol (gasoline) is highly flammable and can be
explosive under certain conditions. When opening the
fuel tank cap always observe all the following items:
Turn the motorcycle ignition switch OFF.
Do not smoke.
Always have a fire extinguisher containing FOAM, CO2,
HALON or POWDER close at hand when handling or
draining fuel or fuel systems. Fire extinguishers must
also be present in areas where fuel is stored.
Always disconnect the vehicle battery, negative (black)
lead first, before carrying out dismantling or draining
work on a fuel system.
Whenever petrol (gasoline) is being handled, drained,
stored or when fuel systems are being dismantled, make
sure the area is well ventilated. All potential forms of
ignition must be extinguished or removed (this includes
any appliance with a pilot light). Any lead-lamps must
be flame-proof and kept clear of any fuel spillage.
Warning notices must be posted at a safe distance from
the site of the work to warn others that petrol is being
openly handled. The notice must instruct the reader of
the precautions which must be taken.
Failure to observe any of the above warnings may lead
to a fire hazard which could result in personal injury.

Warning
No one should be permitted to repair components
associated with petrol/gasoline without first having
specialist training on the fire hazards which may be
created by incorrect installation and repair of items
associated with petrol/gasoline.
Repairs carried out by untrained personnel could bring
about a safety hazard leading to a risk of personal injury.
k.
Warning
Draining or extraction of petrol/gasoline from a vehicle
fuel tank must be carried out in a well ventilated area.
The receptacle used to contain the petrol/ gasoline must
be more than adequate for the full amount of fuel to be
extracted or drained. The receptacle should be clearly
marked with its contents, and placed in a safe storage
area which meets the requirements of local authority
regulations.
When petrol/gasoline has been extracted or drained
from a fuel tank, the precautions governing naked lights
and ignition sources should be maintained.
Failure to observe any of the above warnings could
bring about a safety hazard leading to a risk of personal
injury.
Fuel Tank Removal
AWarning
If the motorcycle is involved in an accident or collision it
must be taken to an authorised Triumph dealer for
repair or inspection. Any accident can cause damage to
the motorcycle, which if not correctly repaired, may
cause a second accident which may result in injury or
death.
The frame must not be modified as any modification to
the frame such as welding or drilling may weaken the
frame resulting in an accident.
Fuel tanks should have a 'PETROL (GASOLINE)
VAPOUR warning label attached to them as soon as they
are removed from the vehicle. In all cases, they must be
stored in a secured, marked area.

General Information
Electrical Precautions
The following guidelines are intended to ensure the safety
of the operator whilst preventing damage to the electrical
and electronic components fitted to the motorcycle.
Where necessary, specific precautions are detailed in the
relevant sections of this manual which should be referred
to prior to commencing repair operations.
Equipment - Prior to commencing any test procedure on
the motorcycle ensure that the relevant test equipment is
working correctly and any harness or connectors are in
good condition, in particular mains leads and plugs.
Ak
Warning
The ignition system produces extremely high voltages.
Do not touch any part of the ignition system or any
cables while the engine is running.
An electric shock caused by contact with the ignition
system may lead to illness, injury or death.
Warning
Wearers of surgically implanted heart pacemaker
devices should not be in close proximity to ignition
circuits and or diagnostic equipment.
The ignition system and any diagnostic equipment may
interrupt the normal operation of such devices causing
ill ness or death.
A Warning
The battery contains harmful materials. Always keep
children away from the battery whether or not it is fitted
in the motorcycle.
Do not jump start the battery, touch the battery cables
together or reverse the polarity of the cables as any of
these actions may cause a spark which would ignite
battery gasses causing a risk of personal injury.
High Voltage Circuits - Whenever disconnecting live High
Tension (H.T.) circuits always use insulated pliers. Exercise
caution when measuring the voltage on the coil terminals
while the engine is running, high voltage spikes can occur
on these terminals.
Connectors and Harness - The engine of a motorcycle is a
particularly hostile environment for electrical components
and connectors. Always ensure these items are dry and oil
free before disconnecting and connecting test equipment.
Never force connectors apart either by using tools or by
pulling on the wiring itself. Always ensure locking
mechanisms are disengaged before removal and note the
orientation to enable correct reconnection. Ensure that
any protective covers and substances are replaced if
disturbed.
Having confirmed a component to be faulty, switch off the
ignition and disconnect the battery negative (black) lead
first.
Remove the component and support the
disconnected harness. When replacing the component
keep oily hands away from electrical connection areas and
push connectors home until any locking mechanism
becomes fully engaged.
Battery Disconnecting
Before disconnecting the battery, switch off all electrical
equipment.
A Warning
To prevent the risk of a battery exploding and to prevent
damage to electrical components ALWAYS disconnect
the battery negative (black) lead first.
When
reconnecting the battery, always connect the positive
(red) lead first, then the negative (black) lead. Always
disconnect the battery when working on any part of the
electrical system.
Failure to observe the above warnings may lead to
electrical damage and a fire hazard which could cause
personal injury.
Always ensure that battery leads are routed correctly and
are not close to any potential chafing points.
Disciplines
Switch off the ignition prior to making any connection or
disconnection in the system. An electrical surge can be
caused by disconnecting 'live connections which can
damage electronic components.
Ensure hands and work surfaces are clean and free of
grease, swarf, etc. as grease collects dirt which can cause
tracking or high-resistance contacts.
Prior to commencing any test, and periodically during any
test, touch a good earth to discharge body static. This is
because some electronic components are vulnerable to
static electricity.

General Information
Electrical Wires
All the electrical wires are either single-colour or two-
colour and, with only a few exceptions, must be
connected to wires of the same colour. On any of the two-
colour wires there is a greater amount of one colour and a
lesser amount of a second colour. A two-colour wire is
identified by first the primary colour and then the
secondary colour. For example, a yellow wire with thin
red stripes is referred to as a 'yellow/red wire; it would be
a 'red/yellow' wire if the colours were reversed to make
red the main colour.
Electrical Testing
For any electrical system to work, electricity must be able
to flow in a complete circuit from the power source (the
battery) via the components and back to the battery. No
circuit means no electrical flow. Once the power has left
the positive side of the battery and run through the
component it must then return to the battery on its
negative side (this is called earth or ground). To save on
wiring, connections and space, the negative side of the
battery is connected directly to the frame or engine.
Around the frame and engine will be various other
ground points to which the wiring coming from
components will be connected. In the case of the starter
motor it bolts directly to the engine, which is bolted to the
frame. Therefore the frame and engine also form part of
the earth return path.
Ohm's Law
The relationship between voltage, current and resistance
is defined by Ohm's Law.
•
The potential of a battery is measured in
Volts M.
•
The flow of current in a circuit (I) is measured
in Amperes.
•
The power rating of a consumer is measured
in Watts (W).
•
The resistance (R) of a circuit is measured in
Ohms (Q).
Ohms law, for practical work can be described as -
Voltage
= Resistance
Current
Power is calculated by multiplying Volts x Amps -
Watts = Volts x Amps
By transposing either of these formulae, the value of any
unit can be calculated if the other two values are known.
For example, if a battery of 12V is connected to a bulb of
60W:
•
the current flowing in the circuit can be
calculated by using -
W
=1
60
=5
V
12
•
the bulb resistance can be calculated by
using -

Basic Circuit Diagram
In the above circuit an electrical reservoir (the battery) is
connected via a cable to a terminal on the controlling
device (the switch) whose contacts are either open or
closed. The other terminal on the switch is connected via a
cable to the consumer (the bulb), and the other side of the
bulb filament is connected to ground (earth) by another
cable. The ground point is usually a part of the frame or
engine, to which the battery negative terminal is also
connected.
When the switch contacts are open (as shown in the
diagram), the circuit is broken and no current flows. When
the switch contacts are closed the circuit is made and
current flows from the battery positive terminal through
the switch contacts and bulb filament to ground. The
frame completes the circuit to the battery negative
terminal and the bulb illuminates.
Although some circuits on the circuit diagram may at first
seem more complicated, it will generally be found that
they can be broken down into sections which do not differ
greatly from the basic circuit above.

General Information
Circuit Diagrams
Circuit diagrams are created to provide a 'picture' of the
electrical system and to identify the route taken by each
individual wire through the system, in order to identify
which components it feeds and which connectors the wire
runs through. Circuit diagrams are an essential tool for
fault finding, as it is possible to locate start and finish
points for a circuit without having to manually trace the
wire through the motorcycle itself. Circuits diagrams may
look confusing at first but when they are studied closely
they soon become logical.
Due to the complex circuits and the number of individual
wires, Triumph uses two types of circuit diagram in its
service manuals.
Within the manual conventional circuit
diagrams are used to show the layout of the
main circuits of the motorcycle. These are:
Engine management/ignition, Lighting,
Starting and Charging and Auxiliary and
Accessory. In these diagrams no attempt is
made to show the components of the system
in any particular order or position in relation
to the motorcycle.
identify each connector. An additional number outside the
box will identify the component.
Diode
An electrical one-way valve. Diodes allow current to flow
in one direction but will not allow it to return. The arrow,
which forms part of the diode symbol, indicates the
direction of current flow.
Electromagnetic Winding (solenoid)
An electromagnetic winding (or solenoid) is used to
convert an electrical current into a lateral movement. This
can then be used to operate switches (as used in relays) or
other components such as fuel injectors or secondary air
injection solenoids.
Fuse
At the back of the service manual a full
3
colour layout circuit diagram is used to show
2 or
the main electrical components in a position
si milar to the actual position on the
motorcycle.
Both of these circuit diagrams use similar symbols to
ill ustrate the various system components and will be
accompanied by a key to circuit diagram components and
wiring colour codes.
Circuit diagrams also depict the inner workings of a switch
cube (I.E. which wire connects to which when a switch is
turned from one position to another) so that a test of that
switch can be made using the wire terminals in the
connector instead of disassembling the switch itself.
Glossary of Circuit Diagram Symbols
The following is a description of the symbols found in the
circuit diagrams used in all Triumph service manuals.
