My beloved Speedy broke a valve spring on the exhaust side Saturday and is running pretty badly. This is our shade tree mechanic diagonosis as it is belching and backfiring thru the muffler. Spark plugs are ok. Spark is ok. compression is good on left and bad on right side so it has to be an exhaust valve on the right cylinder.

Trailered the bike to Triumph dealer yesterday and found that my warranty period expired 3/20. I was 11 days late and will be many dollars short on this deal. Rotten luck. It was due for a valve adjustment anyway at 12k and died at 10.9K.
