Thanks for putting this together. I am just in the middle of the taking the tire off and needed the torque settings plus a 17mm socket info. Great video.

Don't the brake pads trend to move in when the calipers are removed? Is bleeding off some fluid necessary for re-installation?

@tacohofkamp 6 жыл бұрын

MuddySump, a great video. I just purchased a Triumph Tiger 800XC Abs. I've got 2 questions. What kind of grease do you use on the axl? and the second question. Do you maybe know what the torque is on de screw that holds the abs sensor? I hope I'll hear from you.

@MuddySump 6 жыл бұрын

I just use a bit of normal multi purpose grease. The torque won’t be much, it’s only a small screw. Just give it a good nip up. There’s no need to remove it unless your taking the forks out.

@MuddySump 10 жыл бұрын

No, I give the caliper a little push to give more space when removing from the disc. They shouldn't move in by themselves

@michaelbennett8847 8 жыл бұрын

Hi. first bike so may be a silly question. I don't have a center stand, and have been looking at paddock stands. From the pictures online, it looks like a paddock stand will work with the front tire of the 800, but not sure it would allow removal of the tire? I would be using a rear paddock too per instructions online for bike stability.

@MuddySump 8 жыл бұрын

Hi. The front paddock stands rest on the bottom of the forks so should still allow wheel removal. Alternatively you could put a scissor jack under the skip plate and lift the front end up with the bike on a rear paddock stand still. I'd recommend the centre stand though. It's always there for when you need it. Can't carry paddock stands around with you

Your videos are very helpful, thanks! After installing new front tire I get a pulsing brake scraping sound and slight vibration in the handlebar, looks like the guy who put back the front wheel did not align the brake callipers right. What do you think could be the issue?

@MuddySump 5 жыл бұрын

There’s nothing to align with the calipers. Is the pulsing through the brake lever too? Might have somehow warped your disc?

@sameermoto 4 жыл бұрын

@@MuddySump I checked both the discs, they are not warped at all. The pulsing is mostly through the handlebar. The wheel is a little out of true 1-2mm. not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Hi Muddysump! Im thinking of changing my own tires in the future. The mecanic at the workshop I normally go to advised me against this though as this would be a really hard job, especially with the tiger 800 xc rims. I was wondering if you agree? I wanted to invest is eastbound levers with bead breaker to get the tires of cause I could also use this on the road. Would really like to hear your thoughts on it!

@MuddySump 10 ай бұрын

I’ve only ever changed my dirt bike tyres with hand tools. You can do it, will get easier the more you get used to changing them. Will need to balance them afterwards as well though. You’ll definitely feel an out of balance wheel when you start getting some speed up on the road

When spokes are found to be loose what torque do you recommend for tightning spokes, for both the front and rear wheels? I plan to get a spoke torque wrench and couldn't find these values in the owner's manual or shop manual.

@MuddySump 5 жыл бұрын

Don’t know what it is, I’ve never used a torque wrench on them.

@bigman-adv 5 жыл бұрын

@@MuddySump Thanks for the input. I know many people go by ear, but thought maybe I'll use accurate torque values. From what I gathered so far the recommended value is around 45-48 inch pound.

Quick question... 2 take off both wheels to get new tyres fitted. I have a centre stand and an old motocross style jack to put under the bash plate.. will the bike be OK like this to take both wheels off at the same time? is there a preference to which wheel I take off first? cheers in advance

@MuddySump 8 жыл бұрын

Yes. The weight will be on the jack so won't tip back. Is the stand the right height not to push it too far up?

@evilpod 8 жыл бұрын

It's the triumph tiger 800xc factory stand..

+evilpod I meant the mx stand. They're usually pretty high

+MuddySump it's hydraulic so I can raise it up under the bash plate to take the weight from it so the bike doesn't tip forward... I thought between that and the centre stand it would be OK. ..

+evilpod yea should be alright. I usually use a scissor Jack and the centre stand when doing steering head bearings and have both wheels off the ground then

I just want to point out that the front brake calipers bolts require 28 Nm NOT 21 Nm. I had to go back and re-tighten mine because that's what's the Haynes manual specifies.

@banarne71 6 жыл бұрын

Thanks for a good vid! Just a small correction. Before tightening the bolts for the calipers you should pump the brakes so they adjust correctly. After that you tighten the bolts to the correct specs. / Thanks for posting!
