    I have the same sled! Bought my V-Max 700 SX new in 1996 for $6499.00 U.S. In order for the fuel pump to fill all three carburetor bowls with fewer rope pulls, I use an oil can mixed with fresh 32:1 premium gas and Yamalube. 1 shot of gas/oil in each cylinder, then screw the spark plugs in finger tight until she starts. Full choke until the engine fires, then half choke. The three cylinder engine may require up to two oil can squirts of gasoline per cylinder before engine finally springs to life. Start sled outdoors with fire extinguisher within arms reach.

    @WillEverything 2 года назад

    Nah man. That thing needs a rebuild. Rings may do the trick. But you should also check compression when its warm so parts are expanding in the cylinders. Should be at least over 110. 120+ is optimal. Also doesn't matter much if you hold the throttle down or not. Really makes no difference.

      @vulcanizerrecreationalvehi5182 3 года назад

      I had a sport bike where I charged up the battery at the end of my commute day. That battery lasted 5 yrs. It does make a difference when you charge up battery daily or leave it on a tender.

  • @killer2600
    @killer2600 3 года назад

    05:25 If you tilt the battery towards you, you will have easier access to the terminals (namely the positive terminal). 06:15 That second wire and the corresponding split-loom is not stock/factory. Someone has added an aftermarket something. Because of the original design, adding connections to the battery interferes with reinstalling the battery the way it was intended. The red cover over the positive terminal is meant to go down completely over the battery terminal and insulate the connection from all angles. The battery cover piece is meant to easily cover the red insulator and hold it in place without the insulator trying to push it upwards and deform the plastic cover. I'm envious of the ease at which you can reinstall the battery strap. My 2013 Speedmaster is a huge PITA to get the holes lined up and the screw to thread in straight. I always wonder if it was terrible engineering by Triumph or something caused by the idiot original owner. I use the derogatory term for someone who I've never seen nor met based on the aftermarket items added to the bike and all the associated cross-threaded and stripped screws. Apparently, the previous owner thought that when a screw becomes hard to turn and the part is still loose just apply more force. They also deleted the kickstand switch on bike with 2k miles for some reason and left bare twisted together wires with not even a wrap of electrical tape to protect them from the weather. I think the "i" word is fitting for this unknown previous owner of my bike.

      @vulcanizerrecreationalvehi5182 3 года назад

      Your note sheds some light on my issues. I had no idea aftermarket parts were used. Am a former engineer who worked on OEM car components for Ford, GM and Nissan. Don't remember how many times I argued with others on ease of maintenance and assembly when designers were looking for the easy way to do their job and didn't give a 2nd thought about the end user having to deal with this long term. It happens on every vehicle product.

Could you post a link where I can buy this tender? And when do you know it is time to change your battery instead of just charging it? Thanks

    • @vulcanizerrecreationalvehi5182
      @vulcanizerrecreationalvehi5182 3 года назад

      I wish Triumph made it easier to do. I usually find out my battery is bad after I go somewhere. It is not always predictable, but you can check the voltage between the terminals. A good battery should read 12.6 V or more, however it varies between manufacturers. If it reads 12.2 or less, it might be going bad (research this though). A battery tender will make your battery last longer than 4 yrs. I had mine go 6 yrs. www.batterymart.com/c-deltran-battery-tender-battery-chargers.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIzLGnjqfH7gIVSrzACh0lEQmWEAAYAyAAEgKKD_D_BwE
