Title: Finally solved it
Post by: Green1 on January 06, 2015, 11:50:25 PM

After Three years 5 batteries a new rectifier,patched up wiring harness were it wore through on the mono shock and removed the useless datatool alarm,new rocker cover gasket and sump gasket,new plugs new head race bearings the Triumph S4 now starts on a daily basis. :)
Just got to stop the oil leak on the alternator cover,leaky rad hose and weeping fork seal.I may get to enjoy this bike one day.

I have a real marmite relationship with this bike I bought it thinking it would be a reliable as my dads 1200 trophy which has done almost 80k only needing no more than oil changes.
Not my bike but exactly the same
