Thank you for your videos. Your videos can be watched without any purpose, calm, informative, informative and interesting. I watch your videos like an engine manual :). And well memorised.
Thank you again for your video. On my sprint st 1050 did a valve clearance adjustment and timing chain replacement . I put the overrunning clutch pulley wrong, one tooth missed ) did not notice at once, now the T1 mark is a little to the left of the mark on the cap. but I did not redo it, I left it for later, I am lazy))). And I always orientate on the actual piston lift by the method of a long screwdriver ) and duct tape. the marks do not always coincide. The chain is stretched by 4-5 mm, the chain tensioner is extended to its full length. After replacement the plunger is extended to the middle. The most frequently needed shims are 2,80, 2,85 and you should have a stock of 4-5 pieces.
Thanks for the upload. I could have done with your video last week, as I completed a valve clearance check a few days ago on my own Tiger 1050. Getting the valve cover out was a big enough challenge, but I found getting it back in again was a nightmare! I had to disconnect various electrical connectors and strap the harness tightly to the frame, plus drain the coolant to allow me to move a couple of hoses which were in the way! I renewed the cover gasket, which also was difficult to keep in place during the refitting of the cover, so I used half a dozen pieces of masking tape loosely fitted to keep the gasket in place and removed them before finally fixing the cover. Triumph certainly didn't design the Tiger for ease of maintenance when it comes to accessing the valves! Thanks again and take care.
I understand your pain. The valve cover is not easy but when removing all that’s based around it, it’s straight forward. Small tip: u can use grease on the cover seal, or force it in place to stretch it in form. Wait until it’s seated before installing. The reason the access is so limited is mostly because room is always limited and more and more accessories are on bikes these days. I know it takes time for the videos but am very busy with 2 jobs and editing takes lots of time. Next video is about first start or a tutorial. Thanks for the support!

After looking at few of your videos i cant wait for the start up myself
That’s nice. Like always. Try to use manuals and be careful with what you read on forums. Take your time and you’ll be fine. Good luck
