2006 Triumph America Questions & Answers

2006 triumph america wont start, battery is good, cables good, new plugs, engine turns like it is trying to start but never does, after a few mins of trying to start it you can smell gas so i know its
You will have to check for a spark at the spark plugs. Put a known good plug into one of the spark leads and turn the engine over. You should have a good spark every revolution or so. If not, then either the ignition module or coil or crankshaft position sensor has failed. Of course, check all fuses first if no spark. If you have a good spark, and the bike was not lying up un-used (gas gone off) then I have come across worn cam chains jumping over the cam sprockets and upsetting engine timing. Rare enough and only in poorly maintained bikes. Remember, an engine needs three things, gas, compression and spark. All in the right order of course (engine timing).

I have a friend that has a 2006 Triumph America and the same thing happened to him. Started running on one cylinder and then just refused to start. I did a check on everything and found that the CDI went bad. This is mounted under the fuel tank along the back bone and is about 3 inch square box.
They mounted them with a type of plastic rivet and would vibrated on the mount and cause something inside to break. When you replace it mount it solid and use a piece of rubber between the mounting plate and the CDI.
