Why is my Triumph Bonneville not running properly?
After the piston is back in place and seated correctly all the way around, it is time to reinstall the cover. Make sure you remember to tighten the 4 screws down the same amount. If one is a little loose, outside air will be pulled into the carb and it will run lean, causing the engine to not run correctly.
Where do carbs go on a Triumph Bonneville?

Why does my Triumph Bonneville make a noise when I stop?
When the brakes on your bike make a noise when coming to a stop, this can be rather annoying. The Triumph Bonneville has experienced a few owners reporting a loud squealing or screeching noise when braking. For some, the sound comes from the front brakes while for others the sound emanates from the rear brakes.
Why is my shifter not working on my Triumph Bonneville?
For example, there’s a spring in the shifter that keeps its arm against the shifter detent. When functioning properly, the detent engages in preparing for the next shift. If this return spring is broken, the detent spins without engaging, and the shifter shaft would not be able to rotate the shifter drum.
How often does a Triumph Bonneville get oil leaks?
This usually happens between 1000 miles and 15000 miles of riding the bike and does not affect every Bonneville out there. This is because the Triumph Bonneville is a reliable bike and oil leaks like these are minor issues on the Bonneville compared to other bikes.
