Take your battery out and bring it to a local parts store or bike shop to have it load tested. If a battery is sulfated it will often show full voltage however there will not be enough amperage available for large loads.

Change both plugs

engine needs to be overhauled/replace piston & rings as perthe bore

This is a fuel injected platform and the common problems need to be analyzed... Sensors, ignition, fuel delivery, and timing. Good luck, bro. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/christopher_978a4cfc8a812206

You could try the 12 minute tune.This is in the workshop manual. start the engine from cold,do not touch the throttle at any time,leave running until the cooling fan starts and then leave engine running for 12 minutes and then turn off and restart.This process resets the computer parameters.Engine must be cold to start with.

You probably took the battery out to do this, check its connections are tight and no grease on them.

Had the same problem with the 09 speedo massively over- reading from time to time. A good clout with the side of a gloved hand would sort it sometimes. Ultimately, it's a defective speedo and these babies are more expensive to fix than to replace because they are sealed. If you look on eBay or similar you will sometimes find replacements for sale. Just make sure you get the 09 Efi version as the previous ones did not have the engine management connection and the 2011 had a re-design and again, won't fit.

Lot of triumph parts on Ebay

You need to explain a little better... do you mean it will only crank properly when the choke is open and the throttle is closed ??? Has the battery been properly charged and tested ??? ( be honest here because we can't help if you don't ) are the battery cable connections is good shape ??? Have you tried spraying some carb cleaner into carbs when cranking ??? I have the same engine on my Triumph

slow crank or normal crank, hard to start ??? big difference. OH, good choice on scoots, I am a Triumph rider meself !!! And include the year with your answer

Is ok for an oil to change his colour after changing, but depends in how many miles. There are a couple of causes for that. Keep in mind that you can't drain totally the old oil from an engine and that way your new oil will receive some black colour from the old one. Also, the oil is going to the cylinders where are extreme temperatures and residues. Maybe you had a to used oil in the engine or a bad one and you have deposits inside and the new oil washed those and received some black colour from them. Next time before adding some new oil use a motor flush to clean it, but be carrefully when chosing it.

What settings?Points?Plugs?Clutch push rod?Clutch pressure plate?Clutch cable?Valves?Brake cables?Throttle cables?Primary chain?Rear drive chain?Also, a MODEL YEAR would help!

Look underneath on the bottom of the sump and you will see a plug with an allen key socket.To remove the filter is very difficult without the correct triumph tool.(T3880313)

Sounds like your battery is dead.

Which model triumph have you got please?

Most likely cause is the battery. The other problem could be in the charging system.Start the bike and measure the voltage at the battery with the battery fully charged (charged the battery with a trickle charger like battery tender)Should read in the 14 v or higher range. If it doesn't the problem is probably the stator or voltage regulator.

Ok not much to go on but is it in neutral? go check. I spent a day trouble shooting because I left it in gear. On a Triumph Sprint you need to pull the clutch in also.

Your Sprint has no choke as its injected and fuel is controlled by the ECM. So this said there are a few possible things to check.1 TPS throttle position sensor voltage.2 Barametric pressure sensor (MAP)3 Do you use fuel containing ethanol, injected bikes hate the stuff, makes them hard to start. Number 3 is an easy thing to try, 1 and 2 you will need to look at the ECM with a computer. Its very easy and the cable to connect to your laptop is about $14. OBD2 to USB cable.

sounds like valves
