Why does my Bonneville triumph not start up?
Hi Herbie and welcome to the forum. There is a well-known issue with the Bonny efi’s (like yours) that if the battery standing voltage is less than – from memory – 12.5volts, the ECU will not excite the starter relay. 1. Charge the new battery overnight; 2.
Why does my Triumph motorcycle keep starting up?
I have seen alot of starters do what you are experiencing due to wore out brushes, bad field coils, poor ground, corrosion hidden between cable and terminal, run a cable from the hot side battery to the starter terminal to bypass everything, test “backwards” back to the starter switch and don’t overlook the ignition switch.
What’s the RPM limit on a Triumph Bonneville?
After a few days of riding with the Procom ICU using Map #9, I’ve realized that the bike runs very well above 1,500-2,000 RPM, but it now runs rougher at low RPM’s and stalls easily on idle. It also will not start after sitting overnight in an unheated garage in near-freezing temperatures.

Can a Triumph T120 start without a battery?
But Triumph’s are generally forgiving and should start with a couple kicks when things are in order. Unless the bike has a pointless ignition like a Boyer unit installed, the battery shouldn’t matter much. So it’s weird that there battery condition seemed to coincide with the starting problems. Have you ever looked inside the points cover?
