In this video, We work on the Triumph Trident again, With wanting to know if it will run, we work on the Trident to see what it will take to get this bike that hasn’t run in quite some time to run again. Starting off we go over removing the carburetor manifold assembly, clean the carbs up and go over the Trident carb parts then assemble the carb manifold system. Then we move to dropping the oil adding a oil pressure gauge, While having to drop the sump plate we swap it out with a machined one that has a drain plug in it, We then move on to changing the oil filter and then talk about the important information about the filter that shouldn't be overlooked. After that we check the electrical system. We then static time the engine and check the points so we can assure we have spark and increase the chances for the Trident to fire up and hopefully run. But how well will this bike run that hasn't for possibly 20+ years?
