Clutch - Triumph Speed Triple Handbook

Warning
Ensure that all the adjuster locknuts of all
cables are tightened, as a loose locknut
could result in a sticking throttle.
An incorrectly adjusted, sticking or stuck
throttle can lead to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Refit the fuel tank.
Reconnect the battery, positive (red) lead first.
Refit the front panel to the fuel tank and
tighten the fixings to 3 Nm.
Refit the seat (see page 49).
Check that the throttle opens smoothly,
without undue force and that it closes without
sticking.
Ride carefully to your nearest authorised
Triumph dealer and have him check the
throttle system thoroughly before riding
again.

The motorcycle is
cable-operated clutch.
If the clutch lever has excessive free play, the
clutch may not disengage fully. This will cause
difficulty in changing gear and selecting
neutral. This may cause the engine to stall
and make the motorcycle difficult to control.
Conversely, if the clutch lever has insufficient
free play the clutch may not engage fully,
causing the clutch to slip, which will reduce
performance and cause premature clutch
wear.
Clutch lever free play must be checked in
accordance with scheduled maintenance
requirements.
