Speed Triple service - Front and rear wheel removal 1050

Wheel removal on a (2016) Triumph speed triple 1050.
note: same procedure for 2011 - current model

Just to clear up some confusion, some people are concerned about the gap between the right fork leg, (left as you look at the video) and the wheel spacer.

Hi . . when you loosen the pinchbolts (and when you tighten them), it's a good idea to do them each a little at a time. If you undo one full first, all the strain is transferred to the other bolt which is why it was tight. This can rarely lead to a bolt being stripped. When replacing them, if you torque one up to 19nm and then the other . . . the first will no longer be fully tight j- again, do each up little by little, alternating from one to the other ;-)

Fantastic walk-through. Thank you for posting this!

Hi, Very useful video. I'm no mechanic either, but I have been doing all maintenance and repairs on my five 955/1050 triples for 15 years and 200,000km, so far. May I make two suggestions:

Thanks for this video, it came in very useful today.

Just bought an Speed triple r from 2012. Not planning to do anything myself on the bike but anyhow im still enyoing your videos. Keep it up. Mine has run 38.000km

Nice video NMM. Just purchased my 2018 Speed Triple RS, which has the SC tyres on it. They have to go, for usability on our roads. So my Road 5's have just arrived and I'll use this video to get my wheels to a tyre fitter. Cheers.

Remember if adding copper grease to threads reduce the torque figures about 30% as the copper grease acts as a lubricant and you’ll over torque the nut or bolt quite a lot. Torque figures in manuals are quoted as ‘dry’.

Love these vids. Helped me already, furlough forces me to service my bike myself 😳. Can't find anyone doing these videos for a street triple 765 though. Maybe I should 🙅‍♂️

[@robertosmith1]

I have a 2020 Speed Triple RS and love the bike so great video to bookmark for when that time comes. Not a good idea getting all those chemicals on your hands though.

I own a 2006 Speed Triple and a 2009 Street Triple,both fitted with Michelin Road 5 tyres.Brilliant road tyres in my opinion.Plenty of meat on them!Not really the best for track days apparently.Have you ever checked your valve clearances and had to re-shim any valves?I bought my 2006 Speed last year with only 9000 miles on the clock.Over winter I checked the valves and had to re-shim 9 out of 12.It's not too hard a job ...I had already done the valves on the Street 2 years previously.And I am also not a motorbike mechanic!But watching videos like yours is a lot better than the Haynes manuals with their tiny B+W photos.

Great vid... How do you like the grip on dry, twisty roads on those Road 5s? How much of a difference from the stock SuperCorsa?

[@andyweedon6208]

nice vid as usual,whats the make of the bike lift you are using ?

[@mikedhirani8059]

Great video.

[@davidbaranowski9149]

Those pilot4's seemed to have lasted a good long while. How many miles did you manage with the stock Supercorsa's? Curious as my Supercorsas are almost finished after ~4,100 miles in mostly Road mode.

[@mckillopadam]

Apologies if this has been asked but where did you get the service manual? Thanks

You sounded like the Hound from Game of Thrones no offense 😂 good quality video tho
