Great comments mate 🇦🇺 👍
Thanks 👍

Where is the oresdure valve located?
My light is going off when I start but if I put it on the first the light is coming on and stay all long
I appreciate your video. I got here looking for how to remove the pivot pin. I didn't see the e-clip! Great info throughout! Subbed
Hello Steve, have been following you and your problem. I have the same problem with my JD-310B, replaced the o-ring about 3 weeks ago and was using it to clear tree roots from our hurricane beryl we had a few weeks ago and it was idling and heard a hissing noise, looked around and oil was squirting everywhere. So back to the drawing board. You mentioned you had added shims and then blew a hyd hose, so took shims back out. Mine had 6 shim washers, so I removed 3 and just got it back together today so will crank it up in the morning while it is cooler to see what happens. Take care Steve, love your Australia as we were there a few years ago in Sydney
Great Video. I've got a Gen 3, gearbox is like butter.
Are you aware if the 1998 tridents 900 have the hole in the top of the engine? I am quite worried about the sprag clutch issue.
Not sure about the ‘98 but a technician would know. Perhaps call a triumph repair shop?
Thanks m8, yesterday the same problem. Turns out to be the headlight was broken.
Hi Steve. Just checking on you. How are you going. Cheers John from Gold Coast
Hi John, I’m getting better slowly. The Doctors still can’t tell me what caused the problem. I have a specialist appointment soon and perhaps I’ll get some answers. Otherwise I’m feeling pretty good. Getting myself fit for another video. Thanks for asking. Regards from icy Victoria.
A smart, practical bike with plenty of power. I love that you’re getting over a decade from this bike!
Thanks for making the video. My light came on. I didn’t know what was going on so I made the 45 minute trip back to the house can’t find anything wrong. After watching the video I figured out it is my front brake. I Bought the bike used with no owners manual. I’ll 2:50 to tighten up the lever later as it is now I have to push it close with backside of my fingers.
Your comment saved me an hour ago. I changed my grips today and was in a rush and didn’t set my control cover on properly and the bolts loosened up on my way back home and threw this code. I double checked it on the side of the road and fixed them and didn’t have an issue on my way home. Just got home 15 min ago 🤘🏻
Just so you know if your hydraulics seem slow or low on power. I found there is a screen in the bottom of the transmission where the little short back rubber line runs from bottom of transmission over the hydraulic filter. Little bit of a job to get out but it's worth pulling that screen out and cleaning. Most people don't even know about the screen in there. Hope it helps if your having hydraulic problems.
Thank you so much! I just changed my bars yesterday and couldn't figure out what this light was. It was the brake light button!
Genial y suscrito¡ Saludos desde Chile.
Beut.
Have three 05 and 07 in South Africa dirt bike heaven. All family ridden for over 60,000 miles each, never an issue mechanically given proper maintenance, oil,air filters. The bikes are fantastic. Do not listen to the ass holes who review bikes they must find something wrong just to justify their existance. Today power is fuel mileage the 650 has sufficient power and speed to put you in a us jail for long time. Also have an unreliable bmw gs1200 2017. Touted as a premium bike, trust me ride it with while carrying your wallet, do not go far from home, carry a cel and phone for pickup. Also own a bmw 1984 r100rs air head, the last of on the road repairable BMWs. All my views, sorry bmw, cheers Suzuki.
Get better soon Ol'Boy. I was buggered in May, pneumonia then a heart attack because of lack of oxygen, still getting over it, you take care and best wishes.
Thanks James, sounds like you’ve had challenges also. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
@@olboymotoaustralia4294 same to you!
I have the same bike, same color, same issue on the brake lever. Thanks for putting my mind at ease. I'll get on it!
Good to see a professional operating a saw. Hope you enjoy that wood mate.
Do you happen to have the part numbers for the two orings? I have the same issue on a 410 that keeps blowing that oring out. Thank you for the video
Gracias , la explicacion ha sido perfecta.
Good to see that you're better and back on two wheels. Lovely spot the Gorge. All the best.
Hi Steve. Well nice to see you back on the bike and feeling a lot better. Cheers John from Gold Coast. I been out on my suzuki 1800 c. Love it.
Hi John yes there’s no place like home. I’m feeling pretty good all considered. I’m glad to hear you’re out riding and enjoying it. I can’t understand why some people don’t ride. Best therapy in the world 👍🏼
Good to see you back old mate. Dr will beat the virus 🦠.. 👍🍺

Hi Steve. Just saying Hi. How are you going. I trust you are getting better by the day? Cheers. John From Gold Coast.
Hi John, I’m home a week now. Feeling better but it’s a slow road. I’ll have follow up treatment soon after the last of the tests come through which is in a few days. I’m up & about but not pushing it. Nice to hear from you. Much appreciated.
Got the same bike same colour same cylinder head problem. runs fine now
Hi Steve. How are you going. Hope you are getting worked out. Cheers John from gold coast.
Hi John, I spent all last week in ICU and then they flew me to Melbourne for a kidney biopsy. I’ve been here three days and now hoping they’re onto what is wrong with me. I hope they’ll discharge me today or tomorrow. Cheers, Steve.
HI mate , hope all works out well
Many Thanks Patrick

Cheers Paul much appreciated . Best regards to you mate.
Get well mate
Hi Steve. I am thinking of you do you get well soon. Will say a 🙏 keep positive and see you soon on your channel. Cheers John from Gold Coast.
Great comments mate, get well soon 😊 👍
Many thanks 🙏
Hey Steve, I have the exact same issue with a 16 Breakout. You think the cause was a miss adjusted clutch? Has the problem come back? Just trying to get as much info before tearing this thing apart. Thanks
As a rule the clutch should always be adjusted in spec. I would check your cable first. Especially at the trans end. You will see about an inch of white plastic sleeve over the cable. Run your finger nail along the plastic to check for notching/ grooves. Then check over the whole cable. Go from there. Good luck
Brand new cable. Interesting thing, after lubricating the cable the pull was actually harder. Clutch adjustments are good and the bike shifts fine.
Mate, Hello from NZ. I have a 2010 not sure if it is gen 1 or 2. doesnt matter, love it. I agree with every word you said. I got mine off a 74 year old who had velco straps to hold his walking stick! Bike had got too heavy for him as he had dropped it in the driveway 3 times in a week. With a tear in his eye he sold it to me. I asked "are you giving up riding" he said "hell no I am off to buy the little brother, the 250 cc , do you want to come with me for a running in ride?" ( 500 km 1 day trip) There is hope for us all.
Yes it is a gen 1. It’s that very last one before gen 2. It’s the same year as mine. By that time suzuki had sorted things pretty well. Great story mate.
I was about to add the same comment and that was ridiculous when doing it how to video people need to get right to the point and cut all the crap out they would get a lot more thumbs up
Really
I've got a 3/8" drive extension set with a T40 torx security bit from the bottom as you describe, super awkward with my fat hands still. Got one screw almost about to fall out (how do you easily pop the last bit out). But I can't for the life of me get the one of the left side of the bike loose. Any tips. Am I missing anything obvious? Thanks for the great video, can't wait to finally fix my sticky lock and be able to use the steering lock again. Ah i found it, any ideas, someone has been here before me. The left screw head is totally stripped, what a nightmare
Beautiful T3 series? I just want to chime in and say that the painting process on these early/ first gen Hinckley bikes took a laboring 14 hours to complete? A process that not even the T5 series and beyond had? The original T3 series Triumphs were over-engineered and so immaculately assembled because John Bloor ( company owner) didn't want to take any chances with these new generation Triumphs not being up to standards to compete with other motorcycle manufacturers, so they went above and beyond with the build quality and high quality paint processing? I own a 95' T309 ( Speed Triple 900) in Diablo Black, and have owned since brand new....the paint on the bike looks just as shiny and rich as it did when I purchased it..... especially after a wash and detail! A very rare find you got there...congrats🎉
What's that ring called and what's it made of?
Hi Steve, bit late but........... The 2012 Fatbob has the very same problem. After chasing advice how to rectify that ' hand brake light' coming on I was told to do as you have illustrated. All good except it keeps happening. Originally the techy at Gasoline Alley did the spray trick and worked the billy-o out of the lever, back & forth. Did the job but, like the old cat it came back. If this hapens midst a ride, while riding and very cautiously, I push the lever forward and usually the light goes out. More spray and excercise the lever when I stop or get home. Those switches for that model can be replaced and will, be aware, usually stuff up again. Hope it helps. Knees in the breeze.⁵😮
My V strom is my daily commuter to work. It’s a bit big, a bit heavy through traffic , but it can do a bit of everything.
Great old girls . My good friend has one in the uk ..runs really rough tho ..carb problems... struggling to get a decent mechanic to deal with it now
Easy to fix ,the carb model is easy to work on I’ve had mine from new in 2003, I’ve done 80000 miles on it and it still going strong Obviously things break but you get over them.
There’s nothing to it they are easy to set up properly ,just take your time 👍👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I did find my sunnies the next morning 👍🏼
Hi Steve. Very nice place. Enjoyed the video. Lol ugly fish glasses i do wear them as well very good. Hope you had nice lunch. Till next time thank you. Cheers John from gold coast.
Thanks John, yes a really nice place and pristine. I went back yesterday and found my specs. Love the ugly fish cause they’re tough and made in Australia 🇦🇺
Another great vid, enjoyed that. Must take a look at London rock myself oneday I'm into gold panning so would love to see if Byrne gully has any colour. 👍
