20,000 mile service

[coolrocket]

First valve check is due at 10K, the next at 30k and the next after that at 60K, Bobby. Since he knows that the valves were done at 15K, that's off the tare list for about 10,000 more miles.

Kim, I believe that your most immediate concern is lubing the splines and replacing the final drive fluid. The balance is fairly routine and, likely, less consequential.

Keep us posted!

Wrong. first Valve check is 20K Miles and that's from the guys in the factory back in Hinckley, England where they're made. I know this because I called them from California a few years back. 011-44-1455-25-1700 really nice guys and very helpful.

You're correct, coolrocket, however, as established earlier in this thread, the original service interval for valve adjustment checks were as I stated. I was unaware that Triumph retroactively changed the service interval on earlier models (2005-2009, I believe) some years back, as you noted.

BTW, you must have wanted that info really badly since you called Triumph's global corporate headquarters in England. Usually you can get the same info by contacting Triumph's North American corporate offices here:

Don't rush me, friend, as I'm just coming up on 65 years young in, ummm, let me think, now... 36 more days.

BTW, Steve, I think that you should add to or update that CRS acrynym's easiest reference source, coz' they have not included it's most important meaning - "Can't Remember Shyte"... CRS - Wikipedia

Well, Phil,
Did you reckon I meant, Canada Remote Systems?

So still no mention of lubing the drive shaft splines! It still an oversight on Triumph's service schedule I think.

Mindboggling, isn't it, Mike.

Myself and an other former member here made a big stink directly with Triumph corporate over that omission about 7-8 years ago and then, again, several years later. We suggested that they at least put out a service bulletin to their dealership network, which they may have done, albeit, in a rather non-robust, ineffective way and we also recommended that they either create printable, online addendums for both the owner's manual , as well as the shop manual(s) that could be easilyadded to those documents for future reference by all R3 ownwers. This is what our suggestions were met with...
