Just asked local machine shops; they are prepared to do it. Guess I should have done it a long time ago, for thousands of miles I hoped it would sort itself with the brakes wearing off ...

British Bikes / Questions (Triumph Tiger T110)
« on: February 12, 2006, 07:57:27 AM »
Hi I have got a few questions regarding my bike (Triumph Tiger 110, 1960?):
- auto-advance magneto: the auto-advance is not like the part no. 47502 (Lucas auto-advance) but is like a cage with little brass cylinders which are driven outwards by centrifugal force thereby advancing the ignition. Does anybody know more about that?
- spark plugs: are Champion N-5 ok? manual says Champion N-4 for alloy head ... but runs well with N-5
- front brake drum is slightly oval (brake judder). What should I do? Give the whole front wheel to a machine shop to mill the brake drum? or can it be done e.g. glueing sand paper onto the brake shoes for a couple of miles to get the drum perfectly round?
- does anybody know the producion figures for T110s?

Cheers Thomas
