Tickover

Hi Tone, the tickover speed set by the factory and Triumph dealerships requires a diagnostic kit connection - they do not use the bike's tachometer. So to do the set-up correctly you need to download TuneECU, connect it to the bike and then setup up the tickover to 1050 revs + or - 50rpm.

The dealers often say the bike tacho under-reads by approx 50rpm.

 

Forgive me I was talking bollox, there's no ECU on your bike

Just turn the tickover speed(knurled black knob low down on LHS) until the tacho shows 1100rpm on a warmed-up engine.

 

should be 900 rpm on bonnie but mine is a little higher cuts out to much at that mines 1000

 

My 2004 Bonnie used to idle best between 1050 and 1100 rpm
