Binged all 5 vids on this build. Best on youtube. T120 arrives in the next couple of weeks, will be using this for the upgrade guide. Clear, concise & no BS. Great work.

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Thanks Glenn, congratulations on your new bike, you'll absolutely LOVE the torque surge, and make sure you ride it for a fair few miles to get the feel of it standard, then do the upgrades, you'll be amazed at the difference. Off the lights it'll pull your arms out, and overtaking is a top gear affair, peak torque is about 3k revs, so just roll the throttle on and eat horizon.. Good luck with it, let us know how you get on and have fun... All the best Del.

@petewain61 3 года назад

In my experience I have come across similar items to this,I don’t know if you noticed a power increase but when we put similar boxes on bikes and run them on the Dyno they fool the ecu for a short while but the ecu gets wise to them and reverts back to its default settings,it would be interesting to hear in a month or so your opinion on it,if you can open the small box there might only be a small resistor inside,this is only our opinion on the experiences we have had with them,others might have other opinions,interesting video though

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Hi Pete, I've heard this too, but along with various similar opinions, some say that if that happens, just un-plug it, plug the standard AIT back in, let the ECU default back to normal, then re-plug the booster in again, and I guess it fools it all over again?! And yes, I very much noticed the difference compared to the short ride I had before, the pull away wasn't a lurch and a stutter as normal, it was just clean and progressive, and if you just pin it wide open, it surges smoothly right round the clock... whereas before there was definitely a step in it that picked up after 3k... you could say it's generally an overall improvement in tractability, the kind of which would usually be achieved by 1/2hr on a laptop on a Dyno just fiddling with the fueling!

Fitted to my 2016 Thruxton at first the ECU reverted back after a day , pulled plug on booster plug but not easy to reconnect reconnect to air temp senser (need to lift tank on Thruxton ) ended up with MIL light on .

I have 80K miles now on my 2018 Triumph Bonneville T120. It's the best motorcycle I've ever owned, it's one of 4 bikes I've brought over that mark and unlike the others I just don't have the heart to get rid of it... Fantastic standard motorcycle.

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Sure thing mate, I have to say exactly the same for my garage, the T120 is an incredible motorcycle, just feels like it would outlast me! And riding that torque surge is just incredible... the only reason the whole world doesn't won one is cos they haven't yet ridden one! (but the Hayabusa Rat Bike does have a special crazy place in my heart of course!).

@TheGreatestBeyonder 3 года назад

In fairness, although it's fun to see the bike tearing through the countryside (and sounding great), the real test would have been "in-traffic" slow speed filtering, as this is why most owners buy the Booster Plug. The RBW slow speed throttle response is so choppy on the T120 that some owners have traded the bike in! Triumph have a lot to answer for on a £10K+ bike!!

Take a look at the airbox intake snorkel. It crosses inside the box to within about 12-13mils from the right side. Can't be good for airflow. Cut mine off after it enters the box about 20 mils and dressed the cut smooth. No cost fix that seems to work well with my booster plug and X pipe from TecBike parts......FWIW.

On my ‘72 Triumph Daytona, that side cover contained the tool kit and liked to work itself loose. It did so one day on a straightaway northward of 100 MPH, and I pulled to the shoulder to walk back and find it. Five seconds after I’d stopped, the cover went skipping and sparking past me, straight as an arrow down the middle of the road. It didn’t stop for another hundred yards!

Hello Del, I have similar devices installed on my H-D Iron 883, they are Nightrider XiED leads, the leads plug straight into the oxygen sensors circuits. The leads fool the ECM into thinking that the engine is running too lead, it responds by adding more fuel to the mixture. The XiED leads help the engine to run cooler and they improve the throttle response.

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Thanks mate, the gloves are pure summer only, they're unlined, other than the usual cloth interior, but there's no padding or thickness to them, and they're very short and just stop at the wrist, so the wind would whistle straight up yer sleeves... oooeer! One cool feature though and why I like them, is they have some form of zig zag stretchy stitching on the inside of the fingers which curl the fingers in, a natural grip position, and it makes it much more comfortable to just relax your hands on the grips... seriously top quality leather, loads of feel on the switches, but above all mate, pure summer only!

I'm happy with my carbs and 20mpg in hooligan mode or 30 mpg steady and carbon monoxide poisoning if I get near the exhaust !😲👍🏻👍🏻☮☮❤❤

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Sure thing Brother, ridiculous regulations they have to dance round, makes bikes run so lean, they must fart flowers out the back! And if that isn't bad enough, they go and site a girt big cat convertor right under the sump to pour all that heat soak up in to your oil pan and make matters even worse, what was wrong with putting them in the silencers?! Maybe they're having some fantasies about centralised mass or something?!! But with that gone, the fuel richened up and 2 stone of pig iron removed, it rides like a startled gazelle by comparison! And I know what you mean about carbs, I love the Harley with it's big wheezing S&S window cleaner's bucket that spits back and stinks of fuel when you switch it off... no wonder the latte drinkers hate it ;-0 Keep safe Brother and keep in touch, all the best, Del

Hey Del, Question. I've been thinking about slightly longer rear shocks for my 2005 t100. Before I bought it, the previous owner put a pair of Hagons on it. They're fine, but the fender height seems really low and I'm assuming it's because they are a shorter shock vs the factory ones. They measure 12 inches center to center, under load of just the bike. I don't have a center stand and haven't tried jacking it up yet. I know that's only 304 mm. I've read different shock heights for the different Bonneville models. I believe the Thruxton is the tallest at 360mm I believe? I don't wanna go crazy, but would like to add a couple inches. Do you have an opinion and tell me what the factory length is for a t100 on average? Appreciate it. Thanks

@Moonfleet41 Год назад

Here you go Peter, perfect solution, These TEC shocks are for your bike, 335mm lowest and have the adjustable height feature to take them up to 375mm if you need.. so an inch higher right away, and up to 3 inches highest.... should give you lots of adjustability to set the back to height exactly where you want it mate..

Hi Richard, mine isn't twin silencers, it's a 2-into-1 system from the cylinder head back, it's the TEC Rebel 2-into-1 and you just have the single silencer on the right side, saves a massive amount of weight and opens up the breathing no end... it's the next level to take your bike to after the de-cat and a definite upgrade. It may sound similar on video to an x-pipe and open cans, but in real life it's very different, it's deeper and more solid with no echo, here's a link to the video fitting it, which was part of this series..... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o-xOW9XL74s.html

Much respect, really appreciate your how-to videos for Triumph bikes. Incidentally, I own a 2014 T100 Black and it just seems like it was made for roads like the one in this vid. Regards.

One of the first modifications that I performed on my 2017 T120 was the Booster Plug. I thought that the fueling was a little snatchy when starting out and that removed that issue. I have seen no change in the gas mileage whatsoever. One change that I did make was that after watching your installation I went right out and copied your tidy on all the cables. It looks a lot better than my original attempt. I had tried something similar years ago on my Toyota pickup truck; I wrapped the O2 sensor in the exhaust with a couple of layers of aluminum foil which fooled the ECU. That made the fuel input much richer, but it did it at all speeds which didn't work out so well for my fuel economy. I didn't have any of the resistors and internal circuitry that the Booster Plug has. At any rate, thanks for the great video. The internet is better off when you post a video!

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Thank you for the great feedback buddy, as you may see from some of the comments, a few people have had negative results with the boost plug, but I personally felt that smoothing out the jerky pull away was a great asset, and it launches much more crisply now too... and thanks for your kind words on the install, I do get a little obsessive about tidy wiring! Maybe that's a lifetime of sorting out sticky birds nest?! Have a great week and thanks for you kind words Don.

@stephenricketts2067 3 года назад

I have added this to my T120 as well and I find it makes the bike better. I have tried the silver end tied like you and down the snorkel. Both work well. I'm getting a.check engine like and the code is P1051, O2 sensor from the code reader. I removed the AIT and still have the code error. Any suggestions on how to fix this? O2 sensor failure? Any help would be great.

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Hi there Stephen, I have to say I didn't get a check engine light on this, and if everything's correctly fitted in to the exhaust, the TEC exhaust gives you the exact same O2 sensor ports as the factory system and you should have let it idle for 10mins after fitting it, however, the development for the system was all done by TEC Bike Parts and they're very good at it, so I might respectfully suggest to drop George Milburn a line at TEC Bike Parts and pose your question, am quite sure he'll be able to help you sort it out...

Sounds and looks great, Del! But I looked at TEC bike parts and they have absolutely NOTHING for the Triumph America/Speedmaster. 😭 Can you do anything to get them to maybe start developing one? The Bonnie and Thruxton shouldn’t get all the love and attention. The A/S is a phenomenal bike! If I get another Triumph that’ll be the one I get.

beautiful countryside you're riding in where is that it looks kinda like isle of man but can't really tell cuz they're going too fast I'm near the northern redwoods of california and the smoke from the fires is so thick it's hard to 100m ahead, any how enjoy ride' awesome scenery another fine video thanks

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Hi John, thank you for your kind words, yes the terrain around here is very much like the Isle of Man, similar geography as they say, but we're near the south coast in the county of Dorset. we're so sorry to hear about the fires, it's on our news all the time, we have a friend from Paradise who lost absolutely everything in the last round of fires, so a terrible time for you all over there... be safe and keep away from danger, thank you for your support, D&Px

I added the booster plug on my T1 20 after about a week it started popping big-time when I downshifted I removed it runs much better now. Was a great idea I liked it at first, smoothed out the jerkiness in lower gears , But now that I switched it back, I got used to it real quick and I love it without the booster. Also it seems to screwed up my reading on my gas gauge, it’s all over the place now ,don’t know if it’s related or not , but it wasn’t doing that before booster

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Interesting feedback mate, self teaching computers can often act against modifications, sometimes a system like that needs to be idled for 10mins before first use otherwise it never knows where to read it for the best... but I guess time will tell what happens with this one!

@thelegendarysweendog3171 3 года назад

Delboy's Garage I did just that when I installed it . I let it idle until the fan turned on , then started riding it 🤷‍♂️

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

@@thelegendarysweendog3171 Hi buddy,the idle process is pretty specific, let it idle for at least 10 full minutes, then switch it off without touching the throttle, and leave it for another 3-4mins, if you rode away at the end of the idling period, you effectively confuse it, if you're interested, give it another try, it worked me!

I've heard of guys taking out the snorkel altogether for more airflow. It comes out very easily. I have a T100 and thought of removing mine but was unsure about it. Any thoughts out there about removing the snorkel?

Hi Del Boy, really enjoyed these suspension upgrade videos. On a different subject though, which brand are those mirrors and do you actually get any rear vision, they seem rather narrow.

They are by TEC Bike Parts, and yes they work fine, small and not as obvious a rear veiw as the factory mirrors, but still ok.

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

@@traicys-dairy Hi Traicy, I think I understand your question, as just checked your videos, and I see the problems you're having with your GoPro mics... I gave up bothering with sound on Go Pro's years ago... they're just miles away from any good, I simply use a pair of Hero4's, one on my helmet chin bar so it's central on the bike and gives the right POV, and as you saw, one facing aft, both sealed in a case for when it rains. But it's the sound that makes the difference, I use a Zoom H2N stand alone microphone tucked in a bumbag right round behind me, out of the wind blast, it picks up the exhaust note perfectly with no interruptions, and if you want to speak on your video, you can plug a Lav mic in to the Zoom with a foam bob right in front of your mouth... then just sync the sound during editing!
