    Can this be replaced without removing the valve cover?

Currently at 28,500 miles. The rattle lasts 5-7 seconds when it does happen.

    Fantastic video(s)! I must be missing something obvious here, as my local Triumph dealer wants £900 for the 12k valve check on a 2014 Tiger 800. So if the valves are all good and nothing needs changing this seems like a very straight forward job for £900. I do understand that if the cams have to come out and shims sorted etc then this is naturally a much much bigger job. surely there should be two different costs perhaps from Triumph?

  • @MuddySump
    @MuddySump3 ай бұрын

    I think they’ll charge you more if they have to adjust the valves and that will be the price to just check them. Where about are you that they charge £900? Staffordshire triumph seems the worst with £1205 for a 12k on a first gen 800.

    I ride almost always in deep silty sand. At 12000 miles I decided to change my chain and sprockets. The old chain seemed fine, however. Front sprocket was chewed up, rear seemed fine. I put a hybrid sprocket on rear, with aluminum insert, new front and new chain. 5000 miles later, the hybrid sprocket, which actually weighed nearly same as stock, thick steel one, had cracked. I put the original back on. Bike is a beast.

It looks great, with a swivel ball at one end to avoid using a separate angle adapter which can mess with your torque specs, and I like the gnarled surface so you can use by hand too.
