Transom is quite wide. We have the fiberglass main section, and then marine ply painted and lightly glued to both sides as sacrificial pieces that we will replace every few years. We probably have half an inch to spare at this point for the motor mounting, so it would likely have to be a really...

Yoga mat is actually genius! I will definitely try that. Thankfully the hole in the cockpit well for the engine is smaller then the top of it, so even if it comes loose it wont go far. Might bang up our nice fiberglass job though...

This is why I ask the questions here :LOL:

Good to know vibrations are likely fine. I've had good luck with this motor and it's needed nothing but oil changes so far. We will likely put a rubber piece on the side where the screws go onto the transom mount and see if that helps even slightly. Don't use the engine much except to get in...

Hey all! Friends and I just finished repairing an in-cockpit outboard engine well on our 25 foot sailboat. The mount was fully rotted away so we re-cored and rebuilt the fibreglass mount for the motor (which is a Tohatsu 6hp 4-stroke for those wondering). I don't imagine anything is different...

Thanks for all the tips everyone! Will check out other crimpers, and the folding over trick on small gauge wire (which is basically all of my lighting wire) might have saved me a lot of headache regarding terminals coming apart...

I think the issue wasn't originally present when I got the bike. I changed the tune shortly after buying because I wasn't sure if it was running stock fuel map and wanted to try preserving engine life by making it fuel correctly. The issue popped up once I did the map. I then managed to get...

I just got TuneECU to run on a Tablet I picked up today. I will try getting it connected to the bike and reinstall the O2 sensors, restore the air filter to the original cover as opposed to the bellmouth, and try running the OEM Triumph Supplied Arrow tune to see how it runs. From what I've...

Oh, interesting! I might have to give that a go. I think I'll try the Ultra-Copper for now just to see how it goes (I've read that it seems to be fine for some folks). But if that fails, this may be the next route I go. May not help the bogging/surging, but could minimize the pops perhaps.

What do you mean by packing rope? Not sure if I know what that is. I've also read of some folks wrapping tin foil as well. Might have to use some gasket maker to keep it from slipping around, but wonder if that could work.

Yeah I've seen videos on youtube of people putting gasket maker deep in the female end (what I was planning to do), but you're right, the exhaust temps from header to midpipe will be insane... I do wonder if it's worth trying though. Or maybe there's another way to seal it up better? Packing...

One more interesting update. I don't know why I didn't pay attention to this sooner. So the Arrow 2-1 Midpipe and Silencer are held on with those spring hook things that I always see on snowmobiles and dirt bikes. From what I've read, Arrow doesn't instruct to install sealant when mating the...

Once I get TuneECU going, I'll try to install the Triumph OEM tune for this specific exhaust and reattach the O2 sensors to see if that solves anything. I believe it's Map 20514 according to TuneECU. Maybe that's what I will start with, since that would at least give me an OEM baseline for how...

I just looked up my VIN on the Triumph site. No dice for me unfortunately (or fortunately?) Thanks for the tip though! Was definitely worth a check, and this sounds very similar to my issue, so I'm inclined to still not rule it out despite being told this system is functioning normally.

I'm just flipping through the manual now to gauge what they suggest to troubleshoot. It's a laundry list about a page long but it covers what I have below and then a pile more. Personally, I've read that the following things could cause these issues: - Bad Ignitors - Map Sensor, or the vacuum...

Are there sensors that I can attach to all of these systems while riding the bike? Where would I go about looking for these? Maybe I'll have to pony up for an Android Tablet and see if TuneECU has the ability to monitor and record these things while riding. That would be ideal honestly.

Bike has an Arrow 2-1 (it was actually an aftermarket pipe that Triumph sold as an option from factory / it was green lit by them). O2 sensors on this bike are only only for open loop operation at Idle for emissions, and from what I've read have no effect when riding above something like 5%...

I've got bungs on the pipes already thankfully (O2 sensors are off the bike so they're available to use), so just need sensors. Might see if any local shops have them to test first. But I guess either way I have to throw money at the problem in one way or another. Have to figure out how to...

I don't have a wide band O2 unfortunately. Where would be the best place to get one? Seems prices vary pretty wildly online, so not sure what to look for. I'm also wondering if maybe some of the fuel hoses inside the tank may be cracking and that may cause problems? Edit: I've seen others...

I've touched on this in previous posts, but after a bunch more research am still coming up pretty empty handed so looking to start a dedicated thread to troubleshoot. This doesn't seem to be related to the tune or pipe, as I've read of this issue on various bike configurations. Basically in...
