Triumph trident 93 model side stand works as it should but warning stays on with stand up john

I don't mean to cop out, but I always recommend buying a service manual from say amazon for $15-30 bucks. It's the best money you'll ever spend, lays everything out nice and neat and will keep this awesome ride on the road for years to come.

My workshop book for the T300 family is dated 1995
Gives for Trident 750 and 900:-
up to VIN 4901
SAE 10 Level Standard = 94mm Level Max 94mm
from VIN 4902
SAE 10 Level Standard = 109mm Level Max 97mm

Hope that helps

you should be able to start the bike in Neutral and the kickstand down. It shouldn't start In Gear and Stand down

Check the coil for that cylinder, it may be just a loose connection. Make sure the retaining bolts are tight and that there is no corrosion on the mounting points.

If its only happening when moving and your feeling vibrations in your feet. Check your chain is not to tight. You could also have worn chain and sprockets. If not that then check rear wheel bearings and rear brake pads for heavy ware.

Done this 3 times ,you have to remove the carbys after the side/back fairing.

Well my old trumpet sounded like a cuttlery draw being emptied into a tin bucket, lol... yes they DO indeed make a racket, however it shouldn't be TOO loud? As long as it sounds rhythmical and even and there are no "Tinny" (like hitting an empty tin) slapping sounds, then you should be all good.

It wouldn't hurt anything though, to give the Valves a good going over, and "set" them again. this will at least give you piece of mind, that nothing is indeed wrong. I have also found that using a synthetic oil that gets/stays? slightly thicker at running temperature, this too, helps quieten it down too. Also check the valve springs, rocker side play too, maybe it needs a shim? sometimes the springs weaken and cause a louder noise, just replace them if this is suspected. Remember though that the Triumph is a "Loose" motor and they do indeed make a racket, often until they heat up and tolerances tighten, and then it should all purrr.....

repair manual above.

ignition barrells are generaly bolt rivetted to the underside of the top yolk (the head of the bolt snapps off when torqued). To remove the barrell the heads of the two rivets need to be drilled out.

Remove the reflector whcih is held in with double sided tape - carefull prise off with a screwdriver.

Underneath are two fixing screws and then cover comes off.

Refit with fresh double sided tape
