Thanks!!! Much appreciated, I used to have a large deep well impact set, I hope I can find it, it's packed. It might be missing though Oh I also ordered the basket holder on ebay $55 total delivered
My detent spring broke at 48,000kms. But i have only owned the bike a couple of months, I can't be sure but there were no signs that the front of the engine had been opened up before so I'm guessing it was the first spring breakage for this bike.
The bike lasted about another 1000kms more and now the clutch lifter or lifter shaft has broken (I won't know which until I open it up, again).
So I've owned the bike 3 months and had two decent problems with it .
P.S. I couldn't find the broken end of the spring, i dragged the whole engine/tans with a tiny strong recovery magnet and used a borescope with no luck. I'm guessing it's stuck in a pump screen somewhere, no sleep lost.
Well it's done, couldn't find the small hook broken end, hopefully it comes out with an oil change. Forgot to bend up outer ring/lock on original nut, guess that's why they tell you to replace and I did. Needed an impact gun to get old nut off but everything else went fairly smoothly but be careful with the plastic top crome cover top of radiator, forgot or couldn't get spacers to fit in and cracked half the tab off the secure tab/hole. Shifting fine again. Thanks everyone, hopefully this helps someone else. oh and I didn't take the tire or fender off
Just had my shifter ball linkage break on a 400 mile trip, ordered new one from Triumph $30 and saw the rear left hand thread linkage is discontinued, wanted to replace both, found same part on Amazon 4x RH $15. 4x LH linkage $8 FYI LH Amazon.com RH Amazon.com the only thing they are zinc you will have to paint black
