can anyone on here maybe help me out with my triumph? like come over and help me set the points and help me time my bike if need be? i also need that special tool to adjust my primary chain,if someone has it. i had to pull the timing cover off to get to the oil pump because it was wet sumping because the check ball for the oil return wasnt seated properly...which became a huge mess. i dont have alot of $ right now,but i have parts or beer that i would be glad to give someone if they need something. shoot me a message if anyone can help me out for a little bit. it shouldnt take long.

The special tool to adjust the primary chain is a long skinny flathead screw driver. If you didn't live so far away and I was not stuck at home base after the long weekend, I'm sure I could kidnapp Eric and come over. Try and get ahold of him and I'll call him tonight and see what we can do if you don't get it in the next day or 2.

I'm tied up tonight....do you just need the tools? I've set plenty of points but never on a triumph....do you have the specs? What side of town are you on?

Call Deacon Sean. He may be able to help after work. He started out riding Triumph's and BSA's.
