have you asked your dealer about a new one.. many have got a new Igniter .from their dealer .even when out of warranty period..
Frank, mate you really need to take a stand here.
These ignitor problems are not going away and Triumph know they should have recalled and replaced them. Particularly at the price they want. It's a scam.
My suggestion to you is to do the following cos that's what I'd do.
Firstly research back as far as possible to find out who here has had to replace theirs either with or without warranty or better, out of warranty.
I recall a thread where a member asked others who had replaced theirs and we had quite a few names but I'm testing my noggin here.
Once you have your research stats, do another thread to pick up anyone else by asking the same question.
This issue is not going away and you can also help pave the way for others, like me for instance. Yes I do have a stake in this cos who knows if mine won't just give up the ghost at some point.
I believe we have the numbers and contacts to help each other here so that you won't have to pay the big bucks. And why should you? It's a rort that annoys the fu#k outa me, and I won't mention the other sub standard engineering issues our bikes have either.
Anyway that's what I'd do for yourself and to help create a precedence for others.
Of course if that fails (like your ignitor), I did a quick search myself and remembered this post. .
Personally, I don't believe we should have to replace an obvious fault Triumph know they should honour for free.
My 2 cents worth.
