Great idea with the clamp changed my clutch fluid this week as upon opening the reservoir it looked like thick brown sandy porridge
Good call mate, you can never change it too often.
@@Moonfleet41 cheers👍🤘🤘
The clamp thingie on the rear break pedal was cool. I had to get into all sorts of contorted shapes to change the fluid on my Sportster and reach the pedal.
Ive been watching these Bonny videos during quarantine and upgrading my 2015 Bonny Spirit accordingly. Cheers for the uploads.
Thanks mate, glad to hear it and appreciate your support, we have a new project coming next month and I think you'll rather like it!
Great tip on the level being replaced the same as it was Del !!
Oh yes, the oil will go all pver your lift..yes we all have a nice clean garage and smart lift...I've just got the gravelly road outside my house...
I absolutely love the clamp on the brake , fantastic idea , as we all now it can be a pain trying to do it normally 👍
I recommend running the fluids at the proper level... bleed some fluid out the same way that you did for the flush before adding new pads... then proceed to fill the reservoir back to the proper fill level.
Or better yet take care of the pads now.
This only makes sense to be able to reference the factory marks.
So glad I've bumped into this video! Love the way you show us what to do. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing what you do!
You are so welcome and thanks for your feedback mate.
Spot on the best maintenance vid for Triumph oil change and brake fluid. Very straight forward and pro. (Also no lame background music!) I laughed when I saw you grab the wood clamp because (hard to believe) I just bought one today at Harbor ?Freight on sale for $3.49. Genius! I put that in my bag of tricks.
Cool idea with the sandpaper on the filter, i used a belt on my parent's car the last time (my bike uses a reverse threaded bolt for it's filter).
Great trick using that tool to move the rear brake 😊
Go ahead and accuse me of being a cheapskate but last year I switched to Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 motorcycle oil to save a little money. I had been using Castrol. With the help of your video on the subject, I installed progressive shocks and springs at about the same time. The ride is considerably more comfortable now with less hammering of the spine under most road conditions. My first motorcycle, a Honda Super 90, was equipped with drain plugs on the bottom of the fork. It made changing fork oil a breeze. I wish it was that easy with the Trumpet.
Another great how-to vid, team DBG. As always, good pace and descriptions, and excellent production. It's nice to see you working with space to move around.
Thank you my friend, it's great to improve things now and again, we really appreciate yous support!
Very useful indeed Del! Looking forward to some more fabrication though! Cheers!
Thanks mate, just got to get the bikes ready for the season, should be back to the project pretty soon..
@@Moonfleet41 :-)
Never fail to drop some obvious but overlooked knowledge and tips.
I have a triumph bonneville and a harley dyna super glide. This channel is perfect for me. Thanks!
Great to hear Albert, welcome aboard!
I know it's wrong to envy etc., but I do like that bike. Excellent film work too - things just gets better & better . . .
Pity no one thought to hinge that bash plate up one side of it's length, (couple of pinch bolts to hold it 'shut' etc.) it's only really there to stop rocks going in, not rods coming out, so having it 'burst' proof both ways is slight overkill - even for a Tri . . . .
Did I say it's a nice bike? : )x
Thanks for this and ALL your videos! Love your swanky new garage, too! Nice digs!
Ojalá algún día pudieras poner traducción al Español, haces unos videos excelentes te felicito y doy las gracias
Gracias por tus amables palabras, nos alegra que disfrutes los videos.
i like these type of vids as you learn ,
Alright squire! Now owning a bobber black end having only T do the 500 service I’m back to study your brilliant tips again mate , never did me wrong . 👌🏼👌🏼
Congratulations on the new bike mate, they look absolutely awesome and the right colour too!... have fun with it and we're glad the videos help!
Nice job Del. Penny will be happy. Hope you both have a good week and it's not to cold and wet over there. it's only 34C here to day LOL Take care mate. Cheers
Hi mate, yeah send some over, bit dull here at the minute and we have another storm on the way this weekend... roll on summer! Have a good week, enjoy that sunshine! D&Px
A joy to watch Delboy work, brilliant as always..
Glad you enjoyed it, many thanks Paul!
Lov u mate! I never stop learning from your videos! Thanks for sharing your passion! Take care!
Great video! Thanks so much for the upload! Very clear and to the point! Also - fantastic presentation style and great camera work!
Thanks mate. Glad you enjoyed it!
Your videos are always great - and your video skills are almost as good as your maintenance skills !!!
Great seeing Penny’s Triumph again, Del! Sure hope you didn’t charge her too much for the bike service. 🥴
🏍👍🏍
Great videography, Del (if that's a word) Your camera work and settings are dead-on perfect. Nice Scrambler. Is that one Miss Penny's?
Thank you most kindly Sir, yes that's Penny's Scrambler, had it from new in 2013!
Good to see the old SLAM-BLER on the bench !
👍🏻☮❤..
Yeah, Thanks buddy, number one pride of the fleet mate..! Bandit looks Buff..!
@@Moonfleet41 👍🏻changed the stupid rack for grab handles today ..much better 👍🏻☮❤
Thanks
I bought my 2019 T100 in 2020from the dealer and it had just been serviced with 2200 miles on the clock. I received a message from the dealer that it needed an MOT this year. So I contact them and they offer a free MOT with a service for £335 I’ve only done 2k miles. Think I’ll just service it myself.
Nice job!
Hey Delboy, like your triumph videos. Saw your AIS removal video but us liquid cooled guys need some help with the EVAP system removal. Got a couple conflicting reports and would love your expertise on the removal with a video.
nice refresh video on how to do the service on triumph, really like the clamp idea, dont have to bother wife again hahaha...
Where is the front mud guard you made ?
Why you pulling the seals out of a brand new oil filter before fitting it?
It only drops in to a slot and it's beneficial to get some oil in behind it and then re-install it, which all helps to seat it perfectly when you install the filter.
(P) All renewed, I’m sure Penny is pleased. Let the good times roll 😀
Good time indeed Bruv, much playin' out to be had this season!
You never lowered the front fender after changing the wheel size. Looks a bit odd but I’m sure it handles much better.
Nice simple jobs well done. Does ABS cause a problem with changing the brake fluid? Cheers.
Nope, just don't run the engine whilst you're pumping it through.
I use Morris oils.
Blimey, thats a blast from the past..!
Grate job del I have learned and saved a lot of money over the years your name always mentioned at rallies I go to paul from Dublin Ireland
What fender eliminator kit is that and does it fit on a 17’ t120? Nice vid and always a good feeling when you work on your own bike and in charge of your own safety
It's a Motone tail tidy kit, you'll have to check with them direct about the right spec for your bike!
Any reason you changed to dumping the front brake master cylinder as opposed to cautiously (not below cylinder hose level) siphoning it out in your previous video?
Gracias por compartir tu experiencia en con las Motos... Buenos consejos y simples.!
Gracias Ramón, me alegra que disfrutes los videos, amigo.
@@Moonfleet41 Un amigo más! Desde Panamá un saludo! Mi moto Streed Twin 2017
I like this model, it's classic. If I can't take the XJR-1300 anymore, I might replace it. Only the brake fluid holder is undemanding! It doesn't fit, but it doesn't fit a motorcycle!
I had my '04 Bonnie on the lift this weekend. Noticed the oil looks murky through the sight glass. Yours also looks murky and it's fresh. My '05 Thruxton looks clean. I wonder if there is something to the sight glass.
It's just condensation mate, take it for a long hot ride and it'll burn off !
Could you do a video on the valve clearance check on a bonneville?
Hey Del. Love these types of videos. I use a vacuum tool to change my brake fluid. Have you ever used one? If so any disadvantages that you have noticed. Thanks pal. Keep up the great work.
Hi there, personally I haven't, I just use this manual method and it's served me well for a lifetime. Thanks for your support.
Great video fantastic bike 🇬🇧👍
Mega job well done del ..
Thank for the video . Btw , may i ask where did u bought the Radiator +machine cover ? oder did just design that urselfl ? i would love to have one for my Bonn
I made it myself mate.. fabricated it from sheet metal.. Thank you for your kind words.
Few good tips Del Sadly cannot do my front Brakes like that as my Z1000sx brakelines feeds the other caliper :(
OK, you can still bleed them through mate, or do you mean you have linked brakes? As they can still be done, it's just a matter of operating the cylinder.
Nice cinematography!!! Shame it was too late for Sunday's Oscars.... No really! Great production...really impressed
My friend, I was looking to service my Bobber and it has Factory ABS. Do I need the dealer tool to flush the brake system? Thanks.
Great Video Del 👏👏👌🏻👍
Amazing bike!!
I wish I had an unlimited supply of oil.
what about the abs ? Can you just empty the brake fluid resevoir like that ?
I've got to ask, why on earth is it called metric oil. I mean how is oil metric? Oh dear..(hangs head and slowly shakes it in utter disbelief)
Metric motorcycles is what Americans call anything non-American, so metric oil is oil for metric motorcycles.
@@Moonfleet41 sort of figured it, but it really highlights the politics of American manufacturing. Shame really.
@@royking1 Actually, if you want to be really nerdy, it's not mechanical engineering that's responsible, but the American building trade, for generations they've resisted any use of the metric system and the schools only teach it on demand, so a whole civilization grows up with no metric and actually, I quite like the old imperial system,after all, it was ours first aye? and is often easier to use in certain applications.
I have 2 questions. Where did you get that awesome bash plate that goes up over the oil cooler? Why did you put grease on the brake fluid resevoir bolt, aren't you worried it will vibrate loose?
I fabricated the belly plate from sheet metal myself... nothing i liked out there, to ,made my own.
Hi Del it's a service that you are doing for guys like us world wide.
It's always a joy watching you work. It's like watching a meticulously planned surgery.
Del I have a query as I live in India and sourcing parts for the bonnie is a big procedure, can I use a matching oil filter that runs on a suzuki 1lt 16 valve DOHC engine. The dimensions of the filter are identical and it costs one tenth of the ttiumps
Hi Prasad, I hear this a lot with India, it's a real shame you don't have a better parts back up over there... What you're suggesting is sound thinking, and yes indeed oil filters are pretty universal, provided the fittings are the same... the Bonneville's actually use a very short filter, so that it doesn't hang down below the frame rails (being mounted under the engine), and then it can't scrape on the ground, or a kerb, or get hit by rocks and be torn open... so if you are using a filter with the same fittings, that fits on cleanly, then make sure it is the same height as a canister and doesn't hang down below the frame rails.... then it should be fine.
@@Moonfleet41 thanks for the prompt reply. The dimensions of the filter I found is identical with that of the Bonnie's. It's manufactured by Suzuki. Now that you have cleared my doubt I am much relieved.
Thanks a ton and keep up the good job..
Nice video. Why does Triumph recomend you disconnect the battery before you change the rear break fluid on the liquid cooled bonnevilles?
Nice tip with the clamp mate👍👍 is that the mud guard you made for penny’s bike??
Man I wish I had a lift...
Hi I love your channel and thanks.
I have one question on starter gear shaft boss breakage.
How do you think about that problem of t100 shaft boss broken?
And also is it good idea to use TTP safe start?
Ive seen that casing fracture just once.. and it's totally devastating for the owner, ridiculous money to fix, so any device that can prevent it has got to be good mate !
@@Moonfleet41 thank you for your answer, and so helpful
Thanks again from Korea.^^
Hey Del, grat work on your vids. What is your take on dealing with a ABS system after bleeding the brakes? I know this is a 2013 so no ABS. I got a bobber 2019 with the modulator though…
Hi Del, great vid mate, can't beat a bit of regular servicing, like you said all ready for the new season.. Quick one mate, is that front mudguard standard it looks too sit quite high, just wondering, great looking bike though, ride safe, and batton down the hatches, storm Dennis is a coming aye.. 👍👍🏍️
Factory Scrambler mudguard, the bike just has different wheels, 17x3 on the front, rather then the factory 19x2.. leaves a bigger gap.!
@@Moonfleet41 cool jobs a dream, cheers Del.. 👍👍🏍️
As always a very helpful video!
Thanks Harold, great to hear form you, simple routine maintenance, you can save yourself a lot doing it at home!
I wonder if you can make a video of checkin and calibration of torque ratchet?
I have a 2000 HD Night Train and I have greatly benefited from the videos you posting. Thanks.
Are there no problems with the ABS system?
This is a 2013 bike.. No ABS
How do you know how many times to fill the reservoir (brake fluid) - I couldn't see the difference between the colour of the old and the new fluid when I did it and had no idea of what the total volume of brake fluid was
On average a twin caliper system will take, maybe, 3-4 full reservoirs to purge through at least, it may not change colour, but it's the water content you're looking to get rid of!
Followed this method for a brake flush, but can't get any pressure to the front lever. Any ideas for a remedy? Thanks!
Helpful video. Would be a hell of a lot more helpful if you provided torque specs however
Aren't you supposed to let the oil circulate before you rev it?
Hi where does the bach plate come from?
I made that myself from scratch.
How do you Clear the service light?
Visit to the dealer !
Oil drain plug should be tighten at specified torque otherwise it will damage the threads.
Exactly as I did do.
I stripped a plug once while putting it to the specified troque. I used a callibrated (Hazet) torque wrench, setting was spot on, and cleared out the casing threads.
It was my first time doing the oil cap to the specified torque, before I just tighten it wrist thight. Never ever had a strip or leak. I torque almost everything to spec but I don't do that for the drainplug anymore. It's a big hard steel bolt in an alloy case.
in the end, use a troque wrench but don't follow it blind.
@@herbert4501 Alloy threads in things like sump pans get bruised over time due to slight and continued over stretching and end up weakened, chances are mate, you did nothing wrong, the thread in that sump was probably already damaged and you just finished it off... bad luck buddy, things like that leave a nervous shadow every time to touch them in the future aye..
@@Moonfleet41 it was an old bike indeed. It was a good education not entirely to trust on what is written in books but trust your gut feeling too.
@@herbert4501 Wise words indeed mate, you can actually buy aluminium sump plugs which will sacrifice themselves before the sump thread if you're worried, but hey, there's no substitute for temperance.
I have been having some battery issues lately. New battery on the way. I've noticed over the last couple rides my digital odometer hasn't moved from 1789. I have rode 200kms since but no movement on the odometer. Any ideas?
I'm presuming your speedo is working or you would have said... and If you've had battery issues, then get the new battery fitted first Stephen, and if it doesn't resolve it then take a trip to the dealer, explain the problems and they'll be able to plug in some diagnostics and check it out..
Hey Del. Love your videos. Very helpful. How do you reset the digital maintenance reminder after changing your own oil? I have a 2016 T120. It has the little wrench icon in the display.
Drop in to the local Triumph dealership, they can do that for you mate.
@@Moonfleet41 Thank you sir. I was trying to avoid the $60 labor charge for that but it seems that might be the best option.
@@randalbowers210 Yeah, sadly they have the digital equipment to switch off warning lights in seconds, the only dodge is to buy similar equipment yourself...which does;t really save you anything.!
Why do you pull the gasket off the filter prior to filling with oil? Also always enjoy your videos from another American fan !
In an earlier video, Del explained that he removes, completely lubes both sides,, and then reinstalls the filter gasket to assure the gasket is slippery so it won't 'pucker' up when the filter is torqued down.
When the oil has settled to the bottom of the sump, are you still supposed to see the oil level thru the sight glass? New T120 owner. Thank you!
Yes sir, thats right, the sight glass is to check your oil level is correct.
I suppose am a bit confused. The bike has sat over night and on its side stand. When I look thru the site glass I don't see any oil. Does it need to be on its center stand to see the oil level? Sorry to be a bit slow.
@@ferdinandnovilla5151 No problem buddy, it's a common question, you check the oil level with the bike upright, and as the sight glass is on the right, it will naturally disappear when you tip it on to the side stand... so centre stand is good, and if you don't have one, a paddock stand is just the same!
@@Moonfleet41 Thank you sir! Am learning a lot from your videos. Keep up the good work. Thanks again.
What’s the model and brand of that motorcycle lift table mate?
It's one of these mate ! www.spanner-monkey.co.uk/motorcycle-lift-680kg-capacity-heavy-duty-electro-hydraulic-115620?search=MC680E&description=true
'V' satisfying . ☕
is that oil good?
Works for me.!
Is it fatal if I don’t pre-fill the filter with oil? Instead I attached the empty oil filter on the bike first then topped it up with oil
No that's perfectly fine Robin, it's under the bike, gravity fills it as you pour the oil in, juts top up, run the motor for a couple of minutes, then top up again if needed..
@@Moonfleet41 thank you!
I am creeping up on the 25k mile mark on my 2018 T120. Judging from a visual inspection it looks like it's time for a new chain and sprocket. Any suggestions for a high quality brand for replacement?
thanks for the video
If you really want to spoil your bike and treat it to top quality consumables, then you can't got far wrong with JT sprockets and a D.I.D Gold HeavyDuty, X-Ring chain ! not cheap, but then 'good ain't cheap and cheap ain't good.!
not like my old bonnie
Amsoil - best oil you could ever use (in my opinion)😉
I saw recently on Amazon a bag (qty 20) of those aluminum drain plug washers. Have you had any experience with the aftermarket washers? I did fluid change, last year, on my Rocket III and I had three of those washers.
Any copper washer will do too
What exhaust have you got on ? Great vid 👍👍
This is the exhaust :- www.tecbikeparts.com/product/tec-2-1-tracker-full-stainless-exhaust-system-for-triumph/
How more different is it with ABS?
what exhaust system does it have? sound great
TEC Tracker exhaust from TEC Bike Parts.
is this carburettor version so is it older version of Bonneville..
No it's a 2013, so fuel injection.
@@Moonfleet41 ohh..oke..my mistake..but that throttle body look like carburettor.....and this model is oil cooled engine....then which year triumph launch Bonneville with liquid cooled engine
What about the oil reset?
What's that?
@@Moonfleet41 the little oil change light on the dash indicator area
Napa sells a tool -Evercraft Service Tools #776-9089 for about $7.00 U.S. it has a built in one way puppet valve-slip one and over the nipple crack it open -depress lever or pedal SLOWLY until fluid drops refilling as needed -keep depressing until clear fluid is seen in hose -close nipple and top off as needed no need to remove canister -makes an easy job easier and less messy!
Hi Del, could you tell me the size of spanner i need for the brake bleed nipple please. Thank you.
there are two sizes you'll find on bikes, the smaller (most common) is 8mm, or you can use a 5/16 AF if you have one as its a slightly better fit.. and the larger size are 10mm.
@@Moonfleet41 Del muchas gracias, thanks mate.
