Exhaust Butterfly Adjustment

Models affected:

Daytona 675 from VIN 564948 and Daytona 675R from VIN 564948

The method to adjust the exhaust butterfly valve on the above models has changed and is different to the Daytona
models prior to VIN 564948. To adjust the butterfly valve and to avoid damage to the exhaust butterfly valve actuator,
follow the procedure listed below.

Warning
If the engine has recently been running, the exhaust system will be hot. Before working on or near the exhaust system,
allow sufficient time for the exhaust system to cool as touching any part of a hot exhaust system could cause burn injuries.
To help accurately check and set the adjustment of the control cables for the exhaust butterfly valve, use the TriumpheBay logo
diagnostic tool as described below.
Check the control cables
1.

Remove the rider's seat, as described in the service manual.

2.

Attach the TriumpheBay logo diagnostic tool to the dedicated plug and turn the ignition switch to the ON position. Refer to the
TriumpheBay logo Diagnostic Tool User Guide.

3.

Open the Engine Diagnostics menu.

Engine Diagnostics Menu
4.

Select the Function Test option.

Function Test Menu

10 of 18

Technical News

Warning
Clicking the 'Start' button will cause the exhaust butterfly valve to move several times. To prevent injury, never place
loose clothing, fingers or hands near the exhaust valve actuator, cables or the valve on the silencer, until the actuator has
moved to the adjustment position. Loose clothing, fingers or the hands could become trapped during valve/actuator
movement and cause crushing injury to the fingers, hands or other parts of the anatomy.
5.

Select Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator then click the 'Start' button. The software will also show the message 'Cable
adjustment checks will be made while the valve operates'.

6.

Typically, the software will operate the valve several times and will then report its cable adjustment findings near the
bottom of the PC screen. In some circumstances, particularly if the cables are not correctly adjusted, the test result
will be shown immediately without running a test. This is because the software recovers data from the ECU on
initiation and does not need to run the function test to determine a result. The software will display four possible
results as follows:
• Cables too tight.
• Cables too loose.
• Cables not evenly adjusted.
• Cables correctly adjusted.

Function Test Menu
Note:

With the diagnostic software in the Function Test screen, one cable will be under tension and the other
will be slack. This will prevent the cables from being evenly adjusted.

7.

If the test fails, do not adjust the cables while the diagnostic software is in the Function Test screen. Select the Adjust
Tune option then adjust the cables as described in Adjustment of the Control Cables.

Adjustment of the Control Cables

Caution
Do not rotate the pulley on the exhaust butterfly valve actuator. Rotating the pulley will damage the internal components
of the actuator.
Note:

The adjustment procedure must be followed to give a preliminary cable setting. Correct cable
adjustment must be confirmed by the diagnostic software.

1.

Release the fixings, collect the shouldered washers and remove the silencer's rear heat shield.
