After getting a question about fork oil and air gap, I thought I'd start a thread where folks can record routine stuff and make it easy to find. Mustang, If I'm duplicating another thread please delete, but I did have a quick look first.
Engine:
Plugs - NGK DPR8EA-9 gap 0.8 to 0.9 mm
Cylinder number one is on the left looking to the front
Valve Clearances: Intake 0.10 - 0.15 mm, exhaust 0.15 - 0.2 mm
Drive chain slack - :doubt WHO KNOWS?? NONE OF THE EFFING MANUALS ARE RELIABLE!!
Engine oil - fully synth, Mobil 1 or similar (stand by for opinions incoming.....)
Engine Oil qty - book says 4litres from dry, but use the dipstick, that's what it's there for. And know which dipstick you have - it matters! Use the "search" button (UTSB) to see why.
Coolant - 50% distilled water, 50% inhibited ethelyne glycol mix
Coolant capacity - 2.8 litres but make sure you burp it properly or you'll have it belching out all over the place. UTSB!
Brake fluid - DOT 4
Radiator cap - 16.0 psi. General opinion is stick to the geniune Triumph cap, other brands have been tried with varying degrees of success. Can be the source of many coolant-related issues.
Fan cuts in: 95 deg C 1999-2001, 103 deg C 2002 - on.
Stat opening temp - 85 deg C (ish).
Tank capacity 24 litres, warning light 3.5 litres (allegedly....)
Engine Management System - there's war and peace on this already UTSB.
Fork Oil:
Type - Kabaya G10 for an equivalent there's a useful table here: http://www.transmoto.com.au/publish/products/7799233/Comparative-Oil-Weights-Table Look up the CST for Kabaya then find an equivalent in a brand you recognise.
