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. Aiways 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 (immediately 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.

Introduction Tampering with Noise Control System Prohibited
Whenever tapping to aid removal of an item is necessary, tap lightly using a hide or plastic faced mallet.
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/BOO km service, and thereafter should be maintained at the figures specified in this manual.
Repairs and Replacements
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 tightened 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 tightened 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.
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.

General Information Ignition System Safety Precautions
Fluoroelastomers
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.
Fluoroelastomer material is used in the manufacture of various seals in Triumph motorcycles. In fire conditions involving temperatures greater than 31SoC 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 fluoride 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.
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 illness or death.
Dangerous Susbstances
Oils 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 labels and obey the instructions contained within. These instructions are included for your safety and well-being. NEVER DISREGARD THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
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.
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 impervious 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 immediately for open cuts and wounds. Always
Service Manual - Rocket III
1.3
General Information be aware of who your nearest first-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.
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.
Brakes
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.
Environmental Protection Precautions
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 authority. 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 iocal authority for advice on disposal facilities.
1.4
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 efficiency leading to an accident.
Use only D.O.T. 4 specification brake fluid as listed in the general information section of this manual. The use of brake fluids other than those D.O.T. 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 accident.
Service Manual - Rocket III
General Information Coolant
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 reduce braking efficiency resulting in an accident.
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 the motorcycle coolant.
Safety Instructions 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 scalds and skin damage.
Jacking and lifting
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 prior 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.
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.
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.
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 and engine damage.
Protect exposed bearing and sealing surfaces, and screw threads from damage.

General Information Cleaning components
Liquid gasket, non-permanent locking agent
A high flash-point solvent is recommended to reduce fire hazard.
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 011 passages and cause serious damage.
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 scrupuious 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, 011 or grease (whichever is more suitable) should be applied to any rubbing surface, which has lost its lubrication film. Old grease and dirty 011 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.
Prior to reassembiy, blow through any pipes, channels or crevices with compressed air.
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 011 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).
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 reassembly. Do not use a tool which will damage the joint faces and smooth out any scratches or burrs on the joint faces using an 011 stone. Do not allow dirt or jointing material to enter any tapped holes.
Gaskets, a-rings
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 falls in service could cause component detachment leading to loss of control and an accident.
Do not re-use a gasket or a-ring once it has been in service. The mating surfaces around the gasket should be free of foreign matter and perfectly smooth to avoid 011 or compression leaks.

General Information Locking Devices Always release locking tabs and fit new locking washers, do not re-use locking tabs.
the original sealing surface cannot be completely restored.
Fitting a split pin
Protect the seal from any surface which could cause damage over which it has to pass when being fitted. Use a protective sleeve or tape to cover the relevant surface and avoid touching the sealing lip.
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.
Lubricate the sealing lips with a recommended lubricant. This will help to prevent damage in initial use. On dual lipped seals, smear the area between the lips with appropriate grease.
Always fit new roll pins of an interference fit in the hole.
When pressing in a seal which has manufacturer's marks, press in with the marks facing out.
Circlips, retaining rings
Seals must be pressed into place using a suitable driver. Use of improper tools will damage the seal.
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.
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 beari ng 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.
Encapsulated bolt )
An encapsulated bolt can be identified by a coloured section of thread which is treated with a locking agent.
Fuel Handling Precautions
Unless a specified repair procedure states otherwise, encapsulated bolts cannot be reused and MUST be replaced if disturbed or removed.
General
Failure to replace an encapsulated bolt could lead to a dangerous riding condition. Always replace encapsulated bolts.
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.
Oil and grease seals Replace any oil or grease seals that are removed. Removal will cause damage to an oil seal which, if reused, 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

General Information 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 ievel. It can readily be distributed throughout any indoor environment by air currents, consequently, even a small spillage of petrol (gasoline) is potentially very dangerous.
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, C02, 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 fuei 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.
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 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.
Chassis repairs
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.
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.

Service Manual - Rocket III
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.
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. 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.
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 illness or death.
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 The battery contains harmful materials. Always keep children away from the battery whether or not it is filled 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 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.
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.
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

General Information Electrical wires All the electrical wires are either single-colour or twocolour 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.
Inspection Disassembled parts should be visually inspected and replaced with new ones if there are any signs of the following: Abrasions, cracks, hardening, warping, bending, dents, scratches, colour changes, deterioration, seizure or damage of any nature.
Always have Triumph approved parts, accessories and conversions fitted by a trained technician. To ensure that a trained technician is used, have an authorised Triumph dealer fit the parts. The fitment of parts, accessories and conversions by personnel other than a trained technician at an authorised Triumph dealer may affect the handling, stability or other aspects of the motorcycle operation which may result in an accident causing serious injury or death.
Service data The service data listed in this manual gives dimensions and specifications for brand new, original parts. Where it is permissible to allow a part to exceed these figures, then the service limit is given. The terms of the motorcycle warranty will be invalidated by the fitting of other than genuine Triumph parts.
Replacement Parts
All genuine Triumph parts have the full backing of the motorcycle warranty. Triumph dealers are obliged to supply only genuine Triumph recommended parts. Only Triumph genuine parts should be used to service, repair or convert Triumph motorcycles. To ensure that Triumph genuine parts are used, always order parts, accessories and conversions from an authorised Triumph dealer. The fitting of nonapproved parts, accessories or conversions may adversely affect the handling, stability or other aspects of the motorcycle operation which may result in an accident causing serious injury or death.
Always have Triumph genuine parts, accessories and conversions fitted by an authorised Triumph dealer. The fitment of parts, accessories and conversions by a dealer who is not an authorised Triumph dealer may affect the handling, stability or other aspects of the motorcycle operation which may resuit in an accident causing serious injury or death.

Description
Release the bolts securing the cam cover to the head.
The engine is fitted with an aluminum alloy cylinder head, which carries the camshafts, valves and spark plugs. The cylinder head is cast as a single entity, to which various components are permanently added after machining. A silent-running cam chain drives the twin-overhead camshafts, which run directly in the cylinder head without additional bearings. The chain is tensioned by a spring-loaded device fitted to the cylinder head, and is guided by two Teflon-coated rubber-faced blades. Valve clearances are adjusted by changing variable thickness shims that sit between the camshaft and valve tappet bucket. The valves are fitted with single, symmetrical valve springs. Both the tip and seat face of the valves are hardened to give a long service life. Due to assembly methods used, the valve seats and valve guides cannot be replaced. Oil is supplied to the cylinder head by an internal passageway inside the engine. Once it arrives at the cylinder head, it is passed through a restrictor, and is then delivered to the camshaft bearing journals along grooves in the cam ladder. The camshaft lobes are splash fed by oil coming from the camshaft journals.

Cylinder Head Camshaft identification
Failure to release the cam ladder fixings progressively and evenly may result in damage to the cam ladder, the camshafts or the cylinder head itself. A damaged cam ladder cannot be replaced as an individual item. It can only be obtained as part of a new cylinder head. 5.
Once all the upward force on the cam ladder has been progressively released, collect all the bolts and remove the ladder.
6.
Secure the cam chain to prevent it from falling into the front of the engine.
The inlet camshaft can be identified by a groove on a machined surface in its centre. The same surface on the exhaust cam is plain.
Note: •
7.
The sound suppression bolt will prevent the cam chain from falling completely away from the head. Lift the cam chain from one of the camshafts to allow removal of the shaft from the cylinder head.
1. Inlet cam (grooved) 2. Exhaust cam (plain) Cam sprocket orientation The same drive sprocket is used for both inlet and exhaust cams. To attach the sprocket in the correct relationship to the cams, two pairs of offset bolt holes are used, with inlet and exhaust bolt holes being clearly marked ('IN' for inlet and 'EX' for eXhaust). The holes will also prevent the sprockets from being fitted 1800 out of alignment.

1. Cam ladder lightening sequence i) In the same sequence, torque each cam ladder bolt to 10 Nm.
j) Release and remove the cam ladder as previously described. k) Utilising the gauge provided with the Plastigage kit, measure the width of the now compressed Plastigage.
During the flowing procedure, the engine must not be rotated. Damage to valves, pistons and the cylinder head can result from rotating the engine. a) Position a camshaft to the cylinder head in it's correct location, (inlet cam to inlet valves, exhaust cam to exhaust valves). Ensure that the timing marks on the cam sprocket are positioned as for removal. b) Release and remove the cam ladder as previously described. Wipe the exposed areas of one of the camshaft journals and the corresponding position on the cam ladder. c) Apply a thin smear of grease to the wiped camshaft journal and a small quantity of silicone release agent to the corresponding position on the cam ladder. d) Size a piece of Plastigage to fit across the wiped camshaft journal.
1. Taking a plastigage measurement 5.
Calculate the cam journal clearance using the chart provided with the Plastigage kit.

Cylinder Head Valve Clearances
Valve Clearance Adjustment
Camshaft, valve, valve shim and valve seat wear affect the valve clearances. The effect of this wear is to change the clearance between the camshaft and the adjustment shim, causing engine noise and/or improper running. If the valve clearances are incorrect, permanent damage to components in the valve-train will take place and engine performance will be affected.
Note:
Correct valve clearances are in the range given in the table below.
•
Measure and record all valve clearances as described previously. Remove the camshafts (see page 3.9). Remove a shim from one of the valves whose clearance required adjustment. Measure the original shim, using a micrometer. Calculate the shim thickness required to give the correct clearance. Clearance too small; fit a thinner shim. Clearance too large; fit a thicker shim.

Remove the cam cover (see page 3.5). Remove a spark plug from each cylinder to reduce compression resistance when turning the engine. Select a high gear and, using the rear wheel, turn the engine over until a pair of camshaft lobes are positioned pointing directly away from the valves. Using feeler gauges, measure and record the clearances for this pair of valves only. Repeat the process until the clearances for all valves have been checked.
Valve clearance checking and adjustment must be carried out with the engine cold.
Note:

Shims are available ranging from 2.00 mm to 3.20 mm in increments of 0.025 mm. 6. Fit the selected shim to the tappet bucket. 7. Repeat the procedure until all valves requiring adjustment have been correctly set. B. Refit the camshafts (see page 3.12). 9. Rotate the engine several times to fully seat the shims. 10. Repeat the clearance checks on all valves, adjust as necessary. 11. Refit the cam cover (see page 3.6).

During fitment of the valve stem seal, two distinctly different degrees of resistance will be noted when the seal is correctly fitted. Firstly, press the seal down the valve stem until the lower side of the seal comes into contact with the valve guide. Greater resistance is felt at this contact point and further gentle pressure is then required to locate the seal over the top end of the valve guide. On application of this pressure, the seal can be felt to positively locate over the top face of the valve guide. Once correctly positioned, the seal cannot be pushed down any further.
Incorrect fitment of the valve stem oil seals could lead to high oil consumption and blue smoke emissions from the exhaust system. Do not use excessive force in fitting the seal as this may break the seal ring. 6.
~.
Apply a thin coat of molybdenum disulphide grease to the valve stem. Install the valve into the valve guide and refit the thrust washer to the valve spring recess (if removed). Fit the valve stem seal over the valve stem and, using a suitable tool, press down fully until the seal is correctly seated over the valve guide.
Install the valve spring.

Compress the valve spring ensuring that the spring is compressed squarely to prevent damage to components. Fit the valve collets ensuring their correct location in the spring cap and valve as the spring compressor is released.
Always check for correct location of the valve collets during and after assembly. If not fitted correctly, the collets may become dislodged when the engine is running allowing the valves to contact the pistons. Any such valve to piston contact will cause severe engine damage.
Cam Chain Inspection An in-situ check can be made as follows: 1.
Check for significant blue discolouration of the chain plates indicating excessive heat build-up.
2. 3.
Examine all pins for signs of rotation. Check for cracking or deep scratching of the chain piates.

Objects such as bearings frequently break-up under ioad and the debris caused during break-up may cause damage and injury to unprotected parts of the body. Never wear loose clothing, which could become trapped in the press and cause crushing injury to the hand, arms or other parts of the anatomy.
Retain the bearing with a new snap ring.
Press only on the bearing inner race to prevent bearing damage. 4.
Locate the bearing and housing to the input shaft. Support the shaft on the press bed and press the bearing onto the shaft.
Bushes with oil holes must always be MISALIGNED with the corresponding oil holes in the output shaft. Reduced oil pressure and gear lubrication may result from alignment of the oil holes, which would cause premature wear of engine and transmission components.
Removing the input shaft bearing from the shaft and its housing will damage the bearing and snap ring. Never re-use removed bearings or snap rings as use of damaged or weakened components could lead to engine and transmission damage. Also, check for damage to the housing itself. 1.
Position a new bearing to the housing.

Fuel System/Engine Management Note:
System Diagnostics The engine management system has an on-board diagnostics feature which allows service technicians to retrieve stored data from the ECM using a Triumph service tooi. Full details of the tool's operation and how to interpret the results are given elsewhere in this section. The tooi is connected to the motorcycle using a dedicated diagnostic plug situated beneath the seats. By using a dedicated plug, no electricai connectors associated with the system are disturbed, reducing potential connector damage. The tool allows the user to retrieve data associated with the system sensors and actuators, test various component functions, read build data and make minor adjustments to the set-up of the system. The data and tests available are described on the following pages.
•
When a fault has been rectified, the MIL will remain illuminated until sufficient nonfault warm-up cycles have taken place to turn it off. The MIL will be immediately extinguished if, after first rectifying the fault, the DTC (diagnostic trouble code) that caused the MIL illumination is erased from the ECM memory using the Triumph diagnostic tool.
Note: •
In most cases, when a fault is detected, the engine management system will revert to a 'limp-home' mode. In this mode, the engine will still function though the performance and fuel economy may be marginally affected. In some cases, the rider may not notice any appreciable difference from normal operation.
On-board Fault Detection System The on-board diagnostic system has two stages to fault detection. When a fault is detected, the DSM (Diagnostic Status Manager) raises a flag to indicate that a fault is present and increments a counter. The counter checks the number of instances that the fault is noted. For example, if there is a fault in the crankshaft position sensor, the counter will increment its count each time the crankshaft turns through 360°, provided the fault is stili present. When the count begins, the fault is detected but not confirmed. If the fault continues to be detected and the count reaches a pre-determined threshold, the fault becomes confirmed. If the fault is an emissions related fault or a serious malfunction affecting engine performance, a DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) and freeze-frame data will be logged in the ECM's memory and the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) on the motorcycle instrument panel is illuminated. Once a fault is confirmed, the number of warm-up cycles made by the engine is counted. If the fault clears, the warm-up cycle counter will extinguish the MIL (Maifunction Indicator Lamp) at a pre determined count. and erase the DTC and freeze frame data from the ECM memory at another (higher) count.
Triumph Diagnostic Tool Described on the following pages is the range of information which can be retrieved from the ECM's memory and the adjustments which can be performed using the Triumph service diagnostic tooi. The tables indicate which tests are performed by the on-board system and what information can be retrieved by the Triumph diagnostic tooi. Full details of how to operate the tool and how to interpret the data follow later in this section.
A single warm-up cycle is deemed to have taken place when the following criteria have been met: •
The coolant temperature must be raised to 72°C or more.
•
The coolant temperature must have risen by 23°C or more from its start temperature. when nOc is reached.
•
A controlled power-down sequence must take place.

Fuel System/Engine Management Function Tests
Adaption status
The system allows the diagnostic tool to perform a series of function tests on various actuators in the engine management system. In some cases it is necessary to make a visual observation of a component and in other, if faults are present, DTCs will be logged.
Because the fuel system is adaptive, the tool is able to automatically adjust to new working conditions. This screen displays information as to the adaption status of the vehicle which will show if it has adapted or not.

Fuel System/Engine Management Diagnostic Trouble Codes Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are logged in the ECM memory when there is a confirmed fault in the system. The codes are reported to the Triumph diagnostic tool as a four digit code. As mentioned earlier, when the system detects a fault, it begins to count the number of times the fault occurs before illuminating the MIL and storing a fault code. Similarly, if a fault clears, the ECM also records this fact and will turn off the MIL when sufficient no-fault warm-up cycles have taken place. Any fault codes will remain in the ECM memory until the required number of no-fault warm-up cycles have taken place. The number of warm-up cycles required to extinguish the MIL will always be less than the number required to remove a DTC from the ECM memory. DTCs can be removed at any time using the Triumph diagnostic tool The system will log the diagnostic trouble codes listed below/over: Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)

If the fault is electrical, this will then be reported as a DTC. Instrument Panel test: A signal is sent which should cause the tachometer to read approximately 7,500 RPM, the water temperature gauge to show 100oC* and the speedometer 100 km/h*, all for 10 seconds. Idle speed control stepper: A signal is sent which should cause the stepper to be driven to the fUlly closed position, then to the fully open position, pausing briefly in each position. DTCs are set if a malfunction is found. * Or the imperial equivalents. Purge valve (California models only): This test allows you to cheCk operation of the valve.
