I understand that the Corbin seat for the 95-97 Thunderbird will work on a TBS, provided the latch on the seat is repositioned. Has anyone done that, and how...
I'm not sure about the production numbers, but I know for a fact that dealers received at most one 04 TBS to sell. Case in point, I did a 400 mile trip to buy...
I've had my '99 TBS since June and love it too! It's a joy to ride. My understanding is Triumph had to discontinue because the engine couldn't pass EU...
My '98 TBS fuel valve started seeping a couple weeks ago, now becoming a full fledged leaker. While I await a replacement to show up, can I disassemble and...
... To tell you the truth I'd be running around Japanese dealers seeing if they have a petcock that'll fit. My bet is that one of them's got that exact...
Mine had been leaking off and on since new (98). Some other Classic owners had taken them apart, mainly to check the filter screen on the top of the valve in...
... I had heard the same story, but I am lead to believe that the 150 figure MAY have been the total for the US market and not the production total. The same...
Does anyone know how many watts our Thunderbird sports output? Or watt the formula is to figure it out. The shop manual says the alternator is 24 amps, as...

if its 24 amps, thats 288 watts...just multiply volts times amps todd_tremaine <tntremaine@...> wrote: Does anyone know how many watts our Thunderbird...
If it is 24 Amps output then theory is 328 watts (the voltage is ~13.7 when an alternator is on - 12 volts is a nominal 'round' number) The coils and the...
... All joking aside, for what it's worth, I do have the Gerbing's gloves, jacket liner, pants liner, and socks. While I don't have any additional amperage...
... other than being informed by the local dealership that only 6 04's made it Down Under.I was given the choice of a new 03 or new 04.I took the 04,one of...
... Yeah, don't be afraid to dig in. I took mine completely apart while checking the petcock screens too. Very few pieces and easy to reassemble. Only...
Thanks for the info. I took the valve apart and found an "O" ring that seemed undamaged, but after I replaced the ring, the seepage and leaking have stopped. ...
... I must concur, the know-how we get from guys here is worth every penny ;o) ... it's saved me much time and even more aggravation, oh yeah and a buck or...
I've searched the archived messages here and searched the internet and cannot find if there are any good coverage windshields or fairings made for my new 2004...
Finding the faulty coil is a bit of a grey area that usually involves swapping leads. A buddy of mine with a 99 TBS thought up this gem. In essence the...
I'd suggest that the non-firing plug will simply be washed with petrol at each stroke. An intermittantly firing plug may exhibit fouling. The simple way to...
Makes perfect sense to me, Larry. I did the "swop out the coils" thing. Inevitably, it was the last one I tried...;>) Cheers, Richard 98 TBS Vancouver, Canada ...
Pete, my point was that relative to the functional coils that faulty one will look different. Whether it looks fouled or just washed in petrol (gasoline to...
