Bought this at Fowlers this morning to replace the bent version on my brake pedal, and look, I didnt read the pack before I left.


What to do? Should I risk it? Will my bike kill me If I fit it? Im Hewlett Packard and Cisco Trained, what dy'a reckon :ImaPoser :ImaPoser

So in all seriousness... does Triumph offer a training course for motorcycle mechanics? :icon_study:

By EU law, all manufacturers have to offer training to any qualified person and charge at the same rate as their internal charge out. Same goes for special tools.

I thought Triumph made more "home mechanics" than any other motorcycle.

Easy to do as well, but no, my new pivot is nicely installed. Think this all started with the bent centre stand bracket. Got a really good rear brake now that I can lock-up if Im not careful

Don't say that too loud.... a Triumph Trained Technician might not approve.  :augie
