What’s going on guys I’ve gotten a lot of messages and questions since doing the triumph podcast with Keefer. So figured I would post of bunch of little tips and tricks I have been doing with all of the bikes I’ve been building lately. Also if y’all have any questions feel free to ask. I’ll try to answer as much as I can
Framed down the bike, got the frame and everything all cleans up and ready to go back together. While I was waiting for the suspension to get done I was Messing around with some wing templates like the HRC ones. Put some Dunlop 34s on, heavy duty tubes, Renthal 996 bars, soft Comp half waffle grips, went with 13/49, with a did ERT3 chain. Cut 3 links off and chain is at 55mm. Vapor blasted the clutch and front brake lever to add a little texture to them, also drilled two holes in the right side number plate to access the pipe bolts to check bolts and remove silencer without removing the number plate.
Bike 2 was brand new with 0 hrs on it. So she came apart and everything was brillo’d and shined up nice. I went to my bolt drawer and found a oil cap and she goes right on.
The PC gear shifter part number is YSL19250. If it’s not “in stock” on the website, just call the shop and ask them for that part number.
I remove the short radiator overflow hose and just add a longer one that runs down the bottom of the frame.
As far as the start buttons goes I’m making my own.
If you notice the bump on the stand, head over to tractor supply and as for the horse mat. I remove the thin rubber on the top of the PC stands, add 1 layer of the horse mat and to have the bike sit perfectly straight with both tires off the ground you need two bumps on the front.
Made some heat tape templates for the right rear number plate.
Went with the Renthal 999 twinwalls on here with the G2 throttle tube with the quick turn Cam with some Renthal soft comp grips, gearing on this is 13/53 ( not in the last pictures, I changed it since then. Will post picture tomorrow ) with 1 link cut off at 55mm
The Shop

Cool mods!
Liking that shift lever!! No sure what it is with the stock shift lever, as shifts are not always precise and I rather dislike it. There was a video of Swolls mechanic at SMX Vegas and he mentioned a supplier of shift levers they use and noted that there is different bends.....did you catch the name of that supplier?
Thanks
Tim
Beautiful work and bikes
Attention to detail x100!!
The race team uses factory triumph shifters made in house.
I will get more pictures on the next ones. I was Filming time lapses on both of these when I was Building them so I didnt get any pictures of the little detailed stuff and different ways I’ve routed stuff. I will try to get some better stuff for you guys
Really nice AnchorTC 👌
These things are pretty slick
Do you recall which throttle cam shortened the throttle travel? I threw the stock cam on the Works Connection tube but I do remember the podcast mention putting another cam on it to shorten the travel without going to the g2 throttle. I think it may have been an older ktm cam?
Yes sir you’re correct. The older ktm cam will work. I’m not sure what cam number that would be for the WC tube. I was going to call WC today but got too busy trying to get stuff all done and cut for MXON. I also have a PC billet throttle tube that feels really good. It’s for the older KTM as well. The 24 plus one needs some fine tuning on the bench grinder for it to work in the triumph housing…. Orrrr you could just order the current 24+ Austrian housing.
Flying out to California to build some 25s and send it out to Swaps 25 250 shootout so here what all I stuff into a 9800 and my travel tool box. Pretty much have 2 of everything besides chassis parts in the 9800. Then the travel box just so happen to fit the Boxo 3 draws foam perfect.





Pit Row
nice work mate
curious as to what do you , are you deeply involved in moto x
how do you find the fit and finish ect
Really liking all the different little attention to detail guide mounts to hold things in place.
Funny I mentioned this and in the new MXA that came out today and they tested the Triumph and MXA also mentioned the mounts in their review
Super clean!
What is your source for the heat wrap on the lower rad hose?
Thanks!
