Re: [St] 98,398



Steven,

Thanks much for sharing. One quick question, apart from the oil changes how much of the factory specified maintenance did you do? Specifically I'm curious how religious you were about valve adjustments and some of the pricier bits of maint. that Triumph specs.

And 98K seems like a darn fine life to me for something that experiences the kind of stress a motorcycle motor does. And like you said, it hadn't really reached the point of failure, but it was clearly on its way down the path.

Best of luck with the rebuild!

OK first off I'm unreasonably upset I can't say it honestly made it to 100,000 miles. BUT, it didn't fail catastrophically and we have the technology to rebuild it. So here's the story. <snip>
