OEM Triumph Parts, Tools, And ECU Tool

[RJPisani]

Hey there,

I'm looking for some direction/advise from long time Triumph Owners. I've been riding for a little of a year, I have a 2014 Triumph Tiger Explorer XC
and I'm hooked. I love the bike, I never want to get off of the thing. that said, in general I generally do all of my own vehicle maintenance and hate
relying on a dealer or shop to work on my machines. That said, considering how new i am to Triumph's I'm still learning the essentials.

So i'd like to know if any of you have a go to spot for OEM parts?

Kind of like the BMW boneyard, if any of you are familiar with that site?

I'm also trying to build up my tool kit for while i'm on the road with it, and I would like to know what tools you have in your
kit that you believe are essential?

Lastly, I'm curious if there is an ECU tool that the triumph community uses? Kind of like the HEX code GS-911 Diagnostic tool for BMW motorcycles.

I appreciate any suggestions!

TuneECU and Dealertool are the two ECU tools that are popular for Triumph. I use TuneECU. I really don't carry many tools anymore. My main tools are a cell phone and a credit card. I do carry a multiple alan wrench set, a multiple torx wrench set, a good adjustable wrench and a pair of pliers.
