This is so useful for me, I am planning to rebuild a triumph engine in a year or so, just wanted to build my knowledge of whats involved. Thank you very much!
Thanks for taking the time to film this video series 👍🏼 You've certainly given some great nuggets of useful information. You're really good at explaining the fine points 🤘🏻
I have a 71 t120r that's getting hard to find third gear. Wants to go to neutral between third/fourth. I'll shift slow for a bit. Thanx for the show I'll be opening it up this winter. Great stuff. Well shot.
Hi @dirtyshirtrichter enjoyed the lucid style of explaining stuff and your simple approach to putting the gearbox together. I have a 1972 bonneville OIF and wondering if you knew that 1970 onwards 1970 included the camas are both 3124 intake and exhaust and when one puts the intake cam one tooth advanced as a bonneville should be timed one opens a can of worms. The bike looses its torque and underperforms . Needs a 105degree exhaust cam centre to get the power back which neccetates the use of the intermediate or vernier cam positions and making custom marks to line up the cams. Also insulation of the carb from the head either with a 1/8 inch Bakelite flange or the o ring on the fixed spigot to keep the mount semi floating or suspended with only a rubber contact is very important in summer and high temp traffic riding .
Thanks for the videos . I learn so much. Can I ask you a question please. The intermediate timing gear, on my engine the shaft this runs on is not a tight fit in the engine case , is this an issue?
Hi mate; here most problems are from the machinist (mostly with the heads) not from a mechanic so really this guy did not do enough research about these engines plus that he is a loctite lover!
Thanks for shooting this procedure for us. I always learn something new... for example in this one I learned "if it takes more than a fist (to put barrel over the cylinders) something is wrong." Who's this Dan person and where do I buy his gaskets?

Well I feel you did a great job for the time you had. Thanks for sharing your information with everyone I appreciate it
Great videos, man! Excellent detail and enjoyable to watch and learn.
Well done vid. I'm probably 3 months from the engine part of my resto... and will definitely jump back to this.
thank you.

Did you replace the rotor on this one? Thanks
Just wondering if the sludge trap was inspected?
Did you check the sludge trap as I bet that the previous builder didn't!.
