New T120 Shop Manual

Its available at The Triumph site <https://www.tritun.net> where you have to register for free, then buy a time block which gives you access to the files to download.

It is relatively cheap, given the price of printed manuals, but is a bit of a messy operation as you download pages, rather than just a single file for the entire manual.

I got an hours worth of Thruxton manual a few weeks back, mainly to access torque values and routine things like wheel removal.

I am afraid I will sound like a grumpy old man, but the bits that I downloaded did not impress me. I am not a fan of Haynes but I reckon whatever they eventually produce will be of more use than Triumphs offering.

 

I just recently purchased a 2017 T120 Black and have been reading about the lack of an service/shop manual for this and other new Triumph!
I went to the Haynes website and they have a release date of March 30,2018 for 2016&17 T100, T120 and several others! The price is $ 29.95 USD. It states “coming soon”, and when you click for more details it provides a date of publishing. Hopefully, this is a complete and comprehensive manual!

 

Who is Tritun? Is there a reason we shouldn't share the docs here?

 

I believe they are owned by Triumph, but not really sure. Their costs to download and print are ridiculously high! Hopefully, the Haynes manual, when it it available, will be all I need!

 

You can pre order the new Haynes manual on Amazon (may be other sites too)
I’ve done so and the release date is the 24th March

 

I just received the following email from Haynes;
“Good afternoon, the book is currently being printed and we would know more information on it by the end of March. Thank you for your interest in Haynes manuals.”

 

According to the 'Contact Us' link TriTun claims to be part of Triumph Technical resources/training. The list of contact email addresses look suspicious, especially if Triumph have already licensed Haynes. I'll be checking this out next week at work.

 

Have just pre-ordered the Haynes manual. Will let you know when it comes (and if its any good).

 

It's a Triumph resource for accessing the workshop manuals now that they don't do paper versions on the new model.
Dealers use it as well.
I used it a couple of years ago to download some Tiger Sport stuff, worked out a lot cheaper than buying a £90 manual !

 

tritun is a legitimate Triumph site. Limited period subscription allows you to download technical manuals. The subscription contract is sole use only, so no sharing.

Its arrived. The paper its printed on is a bit thin and cheap looking but a quick flick through and it looks pretty thorough with 100s of photos and drawings, as you'd expect from a Haynes manual.
Probably worth the £25 imo.

 

Did you order yours through Amazon or direct ?

 

After years of disappointment, I now go straight to the bikes mfg. for their shop manual. They always cost more, but who should know the bike better? This was especially the case with my last ride, a 1997 Harley Davidson Dynaglide Convertible. All the aftermarket manuals were sorely lacking , in my opinion. Just my experience. Good luck bro.

 

Just ordered mine through Amazon.

 

I’ve ordered direct from Haynes as they seem to be available and cancelled my amazon order....price has come down too. Happy days

 

I guess this manual has not been released yet in the U.S. I just went to their website and tried to order the digital and printed versions but they both were not yet available!
Very disappointing!

 

Would have thought the Thruxton would have had its own manual......
The amount of issues and things going wrong with them!
