    Spark Plug Broke in Head

    Thanks for help! The extractor worked and she’s back up and running! Tubing taped to vacuum hose cleaned as much as possible. Should probably change the oil for good measure. I can also report I have perfected the extraction method… I didn’t take off the nipple(?) from the plug so the 3 plugs...

    Spark Plug Broke in Head

    Alright, rachet-attachable eazy out set ordered. Should know if I'm pulling the head this weekend. Thanks for the help. Anyone know if I have to drop the engine to take the head off? Limited tools and would like to avoid. Or if anyone knows a shop in Philadelphia?

    Spark Plug Broke in Head

    Thanks for the insight. I think I can make a vacuum work. That leaves getting to the actual thread. The only part that remains is the the threads of the plug in the head. The third image shows the missing threads from the plug.

I get all the old...

    Need Help Fork Lock and Ignition Busted by Thief

    Hi everyone, I winterized the bike and am getting back to it now. New used triple clamp on. Some used flairings on. I turn the key and get no power? One of the fuses on the starter relay was blown. @Motogiro Would the Starter interrupt-cutoff relay assembly cause no power? or no starter? Is...

    Need Help Fork Lock and Ignition Busted by Thief

    Hi, thanks for the replies. I’m really hoping the electrical is all in order. Or maybe a short saved me from getting it stolen. A guy around the corner had a nice triumph stolen the same night. I ordered the eBay link below. I’m in the middle of house renovations so the bike is just been...

    Need Help Fork Lock and Ignition Busted by Thief

    Thanks for the response, gents. There're some cheapish ones on ebay. Anyone know how complicated it is to get that off? I'm praying they didn't short anything when trying to "hotwire" it. Need to find a seat and side covers too.

    Need Help Fork Lock and Ignition Busted by Thief

    Hi All, I did a search but didn't find anything specific. I keep my bike in my rear yard -- I live in Philadelphia -- and It's locked with a typical bicycle lock to some metal fence and I always hit the fork lock. You can access that yard by a gate and there's construction next door that broke...
