Description:

Triumph Diagnostic Software support for Windows® 8 and Windows® RT operating
systems

Models affected:

All

Windows® 8
The Triumph Diagnostic Software has now been fully tested for compatibility with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the
recently released Windows® 8 operating systems.
Test results have highlighted no concerns, however due to the huge variations in computer specifications and hardware
combinations it is impossible for Triumph to test all possible computer configurations. We would therefore appreciate it if
you could report any concerns or performance issues found with the Triumph Diagnostic Software on the Windows® 8
based system to Triumph as soon as possible.
Windows® RT
The Triumph Diagnostic Software is NOT compatible with the Windows® RT operating systems, designed for use on
tablets and mobile devices using ARM based processors.
This operating system is very different from the current (x86 based) computer architecture, and only permits the use of
software downloaded from 'The Windows Store'.
There are no plans to provide software support for this operating system.
Triumph Motorcycles Limited recommends you check the system specifications very carefully before purchasing any
computers intended to use the Triumph Diagnostic Software.
The Triumph Diagnostic Tool User Guide will be updated in the near future to include this information.
We seek to remind dealers of the minimum equipmet requirements to run the Triumph Diagnostic software:
A desktop or laptop Personal Computer (PC) running 32-bit or 64-bit Microsoft™ Windows® XP, Windows® Vista,
Windows® 7 or Windows® 8 operating systems, with a 1 GHz processor or equivalent, 10 GB of free hard disk space and
a minimum of 256 to 512 MB of memory (RAM).
•

The PC must have a free USB (Universal Serial Bus) port.

•

The PC must have a CD-ROM drive.

•

The PC must be connected to the internet (Broadband is not essential but is preferred).

•

1024 x 768 standard XGA monitor or a 1200 x 800 Widescreen Monitor.

Item 3.
Description:

Crankcase Assembly

Models affected:

Daytona 675, Daytona 675 R, Street Triple and Street Triple R

A new crankcase assembly has been introduced to the above models. The new condition crankcase has an enhanced
profile around the dipstick area. Therefore a new crankcase assembly will not match an old sump as the profile of the joint
faces differ.
If for any reason the crankcase is replaced with a new condition unit, a new condition sump and gasket will also be
included in the spares kit.
