    Good evening Triumph Owners of the world first time on here so please be gentle with me !!
    I got a 2005 T100 had it since 09 and she has never missed a beat, last week i noticed the rev counter needle wavering at between 3 and 4k at steady RPM then it started to misfire intermittently with the rev counter needle taking a dive as it misses, then it will clear for a few miles and do it again.. anyone had this experience before, i checked ht leads plugs etc so we could start at the plugs and work through coils etc and spend a fortune to find its another problem entirely so thought i had better ask first
    Thanks in anticipation
    Tony

    Get your self some WD or carb cleaner with the bike nice and warm spray the rubbers between carb and intake manifold any upsrurge in revs will show you have a crack in rubbers or the jubilee clip loose best of luck

    Mixifix, it's electrical!!

    '@ tonyfitz- at least the clocks are a tell tale sign to say fueling side is good. I've not had those problems but there will be someone along soon who no doubt will advice since we're good at that. Eric

    Hi Tony, do you notice any difference between how she runs on a warm and on a cold engine? In other words, do she run alright on a cold engine?
