Great video, very clear and concise. Disappointed with Triumph for not making the replacement directly compatible.
Great job many thanks

Thanks for sharing this on how to do the spray clutch.

[@mchabi18]

Lots of tricky stuff to care about. Great tutorial thank you.

[@andilock8276]

very helpfull video ,thanx

[@terryaylward8178]

You were lucky the collar didn’t drop in the sump! There is another video of the same procedure but taking precautions to avoid that😀👍

[@xaviert.a.2435]

thank you for the lesson ,i own one trophy 1200 year 1994 52000 km it go perfect.

My old trident is at 56k on original sprag - not looking forward to doing this. But thanks for posting video: it's going to be a godsend when the day comes.

Really helpful... not as simple as on a Yamaha.

1994 sprint with no sprag clutch plate - keep mine charged all the time so only starts on full battery - splitting the engine casing would be my worst nightmare.

[@GregKerchhoff]

Great video.I think mine needs replacing. I asked the mechanic what was involved and his explanation lost me after a minute. How many hours work is this, starting and finishing with a road ready bike?

[@kevkingsnorth9222]

excellent video

[@bostedsprocket6708]

ive got a 95 sprint, 45k original sprag no access plate, so I'm dreading it but ive been told if you keep the battery topped up it should never be a problem??

sprag clutch speed triple 2006. hello. do you know where in the uk can i get the parts to fix this. on the cheap side of course. a new kit is around 300.

[@kevinansell9341]

I find it incredible that a Manufacturer supplies a Modified part where you need to remove material from the Crankcase to get it to fit...

[@marcoalessandro2034]

i think it is a 'fix' or improvement from the OEM part

[@richardrichard5409]

And the improved part fails too

[@olboymotoaustralia4294]

You were very lucky that spacer never bounced off the gears and toddled off down into the bottom of the case. Could have cost you a lot more time trying to fish it out. May have turned into an engine split quite easily. Well done though & thanks for the video upload. 🙏🏽

[@trondwell13]

I heard it was advisable to push a new spline through to avoid any possibility of dropping washers....

[@Richard-ts6mg]

I have a 92 trophy 900 with the same problem as you had. Haynes manual puts this job as difficult, im not sure if i could do it.
Im interested to know, how long did it take you to do the job ?

[@bbbikeshop8359]

It took about 3 hours, but the customer had already removed tank, coils and carbs.

[@860240]

Thanks, just going out to the garage to do mine for the second time ! in 49,000 miles, by the way are you from Radstock ? it sounds like it.

I had to drop my eng and split the case to replace the starter sprag

[@outspoken5326]

I had to split the case on my bike to replace the starter sprag. That is what's its called not starter clutch.

[@jimtrotter2084]

your lucky you have the plate.
