Thank you, you must be an aviation tech? I was airframe/engines/sheet metal. Can you explain ICSV reset and what it does? What does it do and what does it affect?
In the manual for the Tourer it states that vacuum gauges are required to set the throttle bodies, but not for the other models??? Now that I've made it, I will use it (make me feel like I still have carbies
).

An ISCV reset synchronizes the throttle opening with the ECU map, TPS sensor and the idle stepper motor. During this test is where you will set the TPS to 0.6 volts, and then the stepper motor movement or home position. As for your statement about the manual saying you have to use vacuum on the Tourer I believe you're reading it wrong as a Tourer is nothing but a Standard with all the classic bells and whistles on it. Here is a page from the manual if it copied right:
4. Remove the intake plenum chamber (see page 11-
188) and make adjustments until the word
'BALANCED' appears in the top right hand corner of
the screen. Adjusters are located on each throttle as
shown in the diagram below.

5. When balanced, stop the engine, disconnect the
diagnostic tool and refit the intake plenum chamber
(see page 11-191l.
6. Refit the intake cover (see page 11-149 for Rocket III
and Classic, see page 11-152 for Rocket III Touring).

Note:
• The Rocket III Touring throttles cannot be
balanced using the Triumph diagnostic tool.
Instead, Triumph recommend the use of the
Souriau Indiana digital inlet vacuum analyser or
similar device.
1. Raise and support the fuel tank (see page 11-151l.
2. Reconnect the electrical connector to the instrument
assembly and secure the instrument assembly to the
fuel tank.

I highlighted the particular area and can not explain why it is but also should note that Tune ECU was not available in the early years: first Tune Boy then Tune ECU. It is probably not as easy on a Touring R3T because of accessing the area under the tank but I have never worked on one.
Below is a link to Tune ECU how to on the ISCV reset (it's for the 1050 but the only real difference is the 1050 has two bolts on the TPS where we just have one). After you digest it feel free to ask questions.
Oh and there is probably nothing wrong with using your gauges I did on my blower bike because of bypassing the 1 bar Map sensor which is what Tune ECU uses along with the crank sensor to monitor each cylinder.
