Spacer install Ducati Spaces ThruxtonTFC

[@richardjohnson3463]

Just ordered one for my Street Scrambler, thanks for the useful video

you can save the cost for the kit and use 2 small peices of duct tape to remove the play from the throttle tube cleats

[@weekendmotorcycleguy3229]

Yeah, the function of these are very basic. I could have drawn up the spaces and 3d printed them out as well. But for the time invested vs cost, I decided to just purchase these. As far as using other items to take up the space, yep, tape would work as well.

[@AdvGuru]

yeah, it's such an easy fix, and improvement of ride quality, that's its sort of embarrassing that triumph doesn't fix the slop in the throttle tube

[@Arabeon]

Do you still own it?

Hello WMG. I have a 2019 Speed Twin. Did these spacers create any noticeable drag from rubbing as I see they're larger than the stock part they sit on? Also should any additional lubrication be applied? On a different note, are those aftermarket front brake/clutch levers and if so could you disclose the make/model#? Thanks in advance. Dave

[@weekendmotorcycleguy3229]

Hey David! I have not noticed any difference in drag compared to when it was stock. No additional lubrication was needed. As far as the levers, they are Brembo MCS models.

@@weekendmotorcycleguy3229 Thanks for the reply big guy. I'm waiting on those Ducati spacers as we speak. I'm putting those levers on my list as well.

I did this mod on my Thruxton. It eliminates the play but the throttle doesn't have the lag you need and makes it snatchy. So reversed it.

[@weekendmotorcycleguy3229]

Yes, this will eliminates all slack. So, if you like a bit more give, then this is not what you want to do.

[@100kmp]

@@weekendmotorcycleguy3229 I have the same red clip fitted to my Ducati Panigale and they work just fine. The difference is it's dyno to 250 increment to deliver a smooth throttle response. On the Triumph Factory custom, I realised that it worked better without.

Great bike & vid, do they affect the disengage of the cruise control or accepting a different rider mode? Thanks

[@weekendmotorcycleguy3229]

Cotti - The bike doesn't have cruise control unfortunately. But if it did, I wouldn't see it interfering with the function of it. Regarding the riding modes, I have not seen or had it affect the different riding modes.

[@joeb84]

triumph did design this to like this.

[@weekendmotorcycleguy3229]

Yep, just had to play nice with regulations for governments :)

[@jamesgordon4754]

Useful mod thanks, but why on earth use a power tool anywhere near those components when a hand tool does just the job with no risk of harm to the finish of components? I winced a few times at the wizzing noise....a simple hand held screw driver will do the job 8 days a week. Get to know your tools. Power tools are far to fierce for the majority of jobs, great for drilling holes in walls but....

[@weekendmotorcycleguy3229]

I use both and depending on what I'm working on, I'll use hand tools. But different strokes for different folks I suppose. I will say that I've done plenty of more to the bike and have used power tools on all of it. Still no damage from the tools because I know the capability of the tools.
