Could you put a thread on there about the change from 20k to 10k......
Whoa there ! Hold your Horses ! and, Easy "Tiger" !
Before doing that, consider that there is only that 1 piece of UNDATED paper
to surmise that the Schedule for checking and adjusting the Camshaft Timing
on the Triumph TIGER model, is "currently" every 10,000 miles.
( I strongly suspect it is an outdated document that has been superceded ).
I AM also a Member of the Triumph Tiger Explorer Forum, ( for reference purposes only ),
and a quick SEARCH of that Forum reveals a number of comments about this Topic,
which, in summary, include various Posts stating that the Schedule USED to be every 10,000 miles,
when the Explorer was launched, but was subsequently changed to 20,000 miles ONLY.
This seems to be confirmed by copies of Service Schedules dated as early as 09.2013,
showing that to be the case, and confirmation from a named source at a US Triumph 24/7 Hotline.
This would also seem to correlate with the latest Generic Schedule for
"All Models with 10,000 mile ( 16,000 km ) service", ( which includes the Trophy AND the Explorer ),
as mentioned in my previous Post, indicating that the Check / Adjust is done at 20,000 miles.
The only difference I can see is that it now appears as though the Check / Adjust is scheduled
for
every 20,000 miles, and not just the first 20,000 miles
only - Which makes sense
as every 20,000 miles the Valve clearances are scheduled to be checked and adjusted too.
So for now, I would not recommend bringing forward the Camshaft Timing Check/Adjust,
to 10,000 miles, and incurring the additional expense of doing so, without CONFIRMATION
from Triumph that this is required, and I wouldn't recommend stirring the TEX Forum up
by saying the Schedule has changed from 20,000 miles to 10,000 miles !
Cheers
