Triumph part T2025045 fit my rear brake caliper. Dont know if your bike has the same rear caliper as mine. Best to check with a Triumph dealer or alternative provider like Bendix brakes...what fits your bike

@@lornescott-wilson6144 grazie

@@MainRider Sorry, cant comment on that. Im in Brisbane, Australia, it doesnt snow here...seldomly ever gets to freezing.

@@shanefrench778 Have your valve clearances checked if tightening the clamps doesnt fix the problem.

@@heinvdwalt3618 The cam drive chain for a Triumph Tiger 1200 XCx has 138 links. The OEM part number for this chain is T1141210.

@@Wanderer_prashant Hi.I would just check for the usual items: generally looks well kept, clean and free of oil leaks, engine and gearbox running smoothly, smooth clutch operation, all working electrics, no leaks on front and rear shocks, smooth shock action over bumps, check engine light off, no cam chain noise, triple whine is ok, brake master cylinders working smoothly, brake fluids fresh, steering head bearings running smoothly, put bike on double-stand and check for no wheel bearing play. Condition of tyres, brake pads. Ask for a record of servicing. The biggest issues I faced buying an older bike was leaky rear shock and slightly noisy cam chain tensioner on startup (must be quiet after 10s)-fixable by replacing tensioner and timing chain. All the best

Hi Nick. No didn't have the tool(s), so skipped that part. Some of the Triumph special tools were prohibitively expensive, so worked around them as best as I could. E.g. Made my own Camshaft locking plate.

@@lornescott-wilson6144 Ok thanks Lorne. No mention of an external adjust tensioner anywhere that I have seen....think Triumph have got confused with the manual.

​​@@nickaxe771I have seen torque-wrench screwdrivers from tool shops that can do 0.6Nm, but haven't seen a Triumph tool like that either. Think there is a video of someone doing that adjustment on a Triumph Tiger....just cant remember which video

No, not at all. The 5th gear is quite a tall gear. If memory serves it does 100Kmh at 3500rpm....which is standard for many 6 gear tourers too

@@michealmitton1514 Hi Michael. Does the starter solenoid just click when you turn the key? As far as I know only under the seat is an engine cut off switch that disables the engine if the blades are engaged (lever forward). The starter solenoid, when it fails can cause the same problem. Maybe check the cinnections in the battery compartment. I had to replace mine (solenoid/starter relay), with similar symptoms. It would be worth checking all the electrical connectors to the battery, starter relay and starter to make sure they are not loose.

@lornescott-wilson6144 thanks for the reply starts every now and then but when I doesn't it doesn't even click just nothing at all seems like it could even be something with the park brake.

@@michealmitton1514 yes, might be that

@@elcapitanortz Some things to avoid with 250Kg+ bikes: parking on very unlevel ground, going headfirst into a downhill parking (reverse into these), parking in wind such that the wind might blow it over, parking too close to other bikes, so that their bikes might fall onto your bike or scratch yours, parking too close to cars that might open a door onto your bike or reverse into yours, usinga side stand on soft ground-like muddy grass....some thoughts 👌

@@PremkumarsamuelMoto I would buy it, if the price is reasonable. I think these Tiger engines will do a good mileage. Will post more technical videos sometime too. Thanks for subscribing.

Hi Nick. It is possible, especially if your bike has done a fair mileage (i.e. more than 50000Mi but unlikely at 8000Mi). However, a tapping noise sounds more like a tappet/valve sound. The timing chain noise mine made was more of a continuous light grinding noise for 10 seconds after startup...before the oil pressure built up sufficiently....it was like a chain lightly grazing the cylinder head, not tapping as such. Valve clearances do reduce as the engine warms up, and metal parts expand, so initially they would be noisier, especially if the shims need changing. Most loose valve clearance s sound to me like a metalic 'tinging' sound. I never took my timing chain tensioner apart, but suspect the spring had weakened over time and that the internal passageways might have been slightly clogged up. If possible upload a video of your engine making the noise and send me the link. Best.

@@lornescott-wilson6144 Hi and thanks for getting back to me......I have checked the valve clearance....all exhaust were at max gap....inlets where fine....I re-shimmed to the book figure.....made zero difference....that surprised me. Lots of owners have this problem.....I call it a problem of course it maynot be....but with all of us owners who keep in touch....the common thing....with all of us the noise first showed its head at the first oil change.....most get that done around 500mls.....that very puzzling. A race bike mechanic near me had a listen with his stethoscope....said I dont know but is near the top end. Its usually gone within 2 mins and not heard again till next cold start. It stands out quite strongly....if I knew what it was and I knew it was harmless it would not bother me. I got the bike new.....Triumph UK have been no help at all.....telling me.....just ignore it Sir....thats the factory. I will see what I can do re posting a video.

Hi VHG, no, it has been perfect. I change the final drive oil every 30000Km-easy job.

Hi Mike. I think they would be helpful for slow topple-overs if the pillion stayed with the bike. It might keep their left foot above the exhaust pipe... and prevent a possible burn.

Thanks for your input Rick

@@davidwilley4524 Yes, i think so. May as well do the chain tensioner and chain together....made a big difference to mine.

Sorry for slow reply. The pads can only go one way since the pin holes in the pads have to be top side. Also the curvature/radius of the friction material mimics the disc and only fits one way.

Incidentally, front disc pads are part #T2020553 and rear pads are part #T2025045 for a 2012 Triumph Tiger explorer 1200

Rear pads last me the same as a rear tyre...i.e. >20000Km. Front ones last longer, since there are 4 front pads and only 2 rear pads

Yes, on my 800XC you have to wedge something against the guide to take up slack while you tighten down the holder. Then remove the wedge and turn the engine by hand while still pressing lightly against guide until you feel the tensioner release and do its job. See Muddy Sump's video doing the same job.

@@650thumper next time will try that, thanks

Haven't found a solution to the clunky gear changes, other than using a higher weight engine oil perhaps. I use 10W-40 oil rather than 5W-40 oil. That probably quietens the gearbox more than a thin oil. You could try 15W-40 oil as well, unless you live in a very cold country. Best practice is probably not to rev the engine too highly in 1st and 2nd gear before changing gear. I dont rev more than about 3-4000rpm in the first two gears.

@@brotherlestat305 Wish it was. I would say in most cases it is a hostile reference to Jesus. Psalm 2 type rebellion.

Hi GrumpyOldRider. Don't think I had those when I got the bike. Think the police must have removed that wiring when they auctioned off the bike.

Fantastic!

I used two wide velcro strips to keep the seat on the metal plate beneath it. Works well and is removable

God bless you Ulas. Simply trusting in Jesus' finished work on the cross is the essence of the Christian life. As believers we are legally justified in God's presence...declared to be 'not guilty' of our sins anymore. Repentance is a constant attitude towards God still, even a daily prayer... since Jesus put it into the Lord's prayer... "forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us". The relationship with God requires this...because we want to live in fellowship with God, daily. We don't have to manufacture daily 'grief' for our sins, to keep our salvation alive, because salvation is only a work of Jesus, finished upon the cross, but in order to maintain fellowship with our God and Father, we should repent often.

Repentance requires God to grant it (Acts 11:18). The natural man can't manufacture it, but the Holy Spirit, who intercedes for us in Heaven works in our hearts to change our minds and hearts towards sin and God. 1 Corinthians 2:14 states: "The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit." The Holy Spirit gives us the required discernment...that we might be repentant..showing Godly sorrow for our sins from the heart.

Good Internet quote on repentance: "Here’s one way to distinguish between worldly grief and godly grief: one mobilizes you into action and the other immobilizes you. Godly grief is a fruitful and effective emotion. We are not meant to wallow in this grief. It is supposed to spur us to action, to change, to make right our wrongs, to be zealous for good works, to run from sin and start walking in the opposite direction."

Go for it! Test ride first to confirm it is what you want.

@@lornescott-wilson6144 No dealers around me have one on the floor.🤔

@@travelinben1966 Just got a '16 FJR1300 (Gen III) in blue. I couldn't find one on a floor myself on the east coast but off of all the homework I have done over the years on this bike along with talking to fellow riders, they have all said the FJR is the 'Crème de la crème' of motorcycles. I can't stop smiling when I ride my FJR. Fair warning though, sport mode is no joke! EDIT: Also, the weight is no laughing matter, she's a beast in the weight department and takes some time getting used to. When on the move the weight is not noticed what's so ever, its only noticeable when having to move it around or back it in.

@@dabaconz4749 Thanks for your feedback and ride safe!👍

Yes, two large white panniers. Didnt use them much. Preferred the sleek look.
