    Sounds like a harley, running on two.

      Agreed! I need to get the carb cleaned, I think the jets might be gummed up. Probably worth checking the ignition system as well.

    you need to overhaul the carbs on the triumph , first . the smoke is probably unburnt fuel washing the oil down the cylinders .

      I agree and I also definitely came close to flooding the engine with all the cranking. Any ideas on the clutch?

      @@RatchetMotors i will watch the video all the way through and see what problems you have and get back to you. I'm a bike tech from the UK so we should be able to sort it .

      @@RatchetMotors first thing , you must soak the friction plates in oil for 24 hrs don't put them in dry or you will destroy them very fast . try that first .

    im having a similar issue with m adventurer. i rebuilt the clutch slave cylinder (it was really corroded) but when I let off my clutch, it doesnt even stall out. the bike also will roll while in gear.

      I just rebuilt the slave cylinder a couple months ago as I thought that was the original problem. I'm hoping it hasn't already failed again but I'm running out of options.

      @@RatchetMotors believe me I know how you feel. no shop around me will even work on mine so i can even take it in to anyone. havent taken the clutch cover off but i think that may be my next mot to try and figure it out. lesson i learned from this is never buy another triumph
