Fixed my 2003 Triumph Speed Triple Today

Since nobody really visits this site, im gonna make it more into a journal for selfish reasons.

Last wednesday my bike started smoking white smoke while in a pack of riders and lost power. Yay

It was hot as hell as I fixed my Daytona 955i motorcycle today.  That is what I miss about my Suzuki 05 500cc cycle.. no maintenance, the trade off of horsepower for a 2 year older bike.

Anyways…  I fixed a ground fault between the ecm to the sub-harness connector that went to the second fuel injector. (The bike has 3 cylinders) The internet is a grand thing. As I avoid thinking that the economy crisis has anything to do with consumers getting free movies online along with the power of knowledge to fix your own car, amongs pther things… i downloaded the factory service manual for my bike instead of taking it to the Triumph certified dealer. I probably saved $600. Speed Triple Service Manual

I am happy to say 1 multimeter and 1 o-ring later ($36.00), my Daytona 955i is back on the road running like a factory bike. (nose up unless easy on the throtlle)

It was a refreshing day, I missed doing little projects out of the norm.
