You can get to the hard to reach bolts from the left side, with a long 1/4" extension and a rachet. You need to remove the bolts from the front sprocket cover, push it out of the way, to access servo bolts. No scratches.
I feel your pain, took me forever to get the servo out of my 1200. Literally no room to work in trying to get the screws out from the housing. But it looks way more clean and tidy without the huge servo motor.
Of all the bikes I have worked on triumph speed triples 1050s have been the worst for needing so many different tools and having limited space. Great looking and quality bikes but a right pain in the arse to work on.
Ninja was smart putting it under the seat these companies know everybody is getting an aftermarket exhaust so you would think they would make it simple to remove or put a servo buddy
You can just disconnect the Servo motor, remove the cables, add the healtech and leave everything else in place if you wanted and that would be fine. And thanks mate!
@@sergeantsodom6969 Cheers, so I'm thinking of an end can plus Heeltech, my 1260 Multistrada was so simple, pop the seat off, unplug the cable, slot in the Heeltech, and done! your video looks way more complex 🤣
@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes It is a bit of a faff taking everything off on this model, might be worth seeing if you can just unplug the Servo motor and adding in the healtech in a location tucked away, and seeing if that works.
This is an awesome video. I used to own a 1050 with baffles SC cans. My uncle has just bought a 1200 and I thought you couldn’t get decent sound on these unless you decat it due to Euro 5 strangulation. Is this the case? Can you get that old triple “slip on sound” by removing the Servo and putting on a slip on? Advice would be appreciated.
Hi mate, great walkthrough. I just want to install the servo eliminator to keep the valve open. Do you think it will be possible to install the eliminator without removing the servo motor? Thx.
For me it's the same question: why do you want to remove the servo? What benefit do you get?....Just for my technical understanding...Thanks and greetings from Berlin.
It's explained at the end of the video and in others I've done However, upon opening the throttle, there was a distinct 'bashing' and 'clacking' feeling of what belt like valves or bodies opening up. It turns out that this servo motor was the cause I am also installing a new exhaust and needs to be removed anyway.
I'm gonna start posting videos of Me ripping my speed triple in the twisties I'm surprised no one has posted any videos pushing this bike how it's meant to be ridden. Just waiting on my go pro equipment then I'm gonna go race my friends hp4 through our local canyons
I went to my local Canyon today is so nice such an amazing bike. Getting in the gas thru the corners feels amazing. I ordered the largest power bronze screen cant wait so it helps with the wind drag
Other than loosing the massive collector box... is there any other benefits from removing the servo equipment.... it seems a massive pain.... so is there a definite gain please 👍👍
Yes and no, opens up the stock exhaust sounds a bit louder and free-er flowing, however I didn't document any results on the Dyno so I couldn't say, and I didn't ride it with it uninstalled due to time
Not on new bikes (three years as of reg date) and they don't account for emissions for motorbikes from what I understand. They wouldn't pick up on this as part of an MOT if that's what you're Insinuating (?)
Not sure, but you can always re install it if needed with no issues. Torque-wise it definitely needs a remap as the fuelling down low is atrocious anyway, but I don't notice much of a loss
Probably, however in order to remove the cables you've got to take the servo out... so somewhat pointless and you'll also probably be getting error codes
@@sergeantsodom6969 i got a triple second hand with the cables removed but the motor is still attached. Maybe the last owner tried to save money and didnt bother with the eliminator. I get no error codes and the bike runs perfect.

Cheers and good idea, However the bolts from the servo werent an issue to get to- more the T20 screws that hold the bracket in place
Doing this as part of full exhaust.
Headers.
Midpipe.
End can.
Bro, I thank you for this video, you helped me a lot. 🙏🏼
Glad it helped!

Its the 2 bolts from hell, took me ages to get them both finally released on mine.
Massive pain in the arse!
The ratchet is used was called Topeak ratchet rocket, great micro ratchet well worth £23.99 from Amazon
Excelente! Muchas gracias por compartir
Never going to complain again about the servo on my Superduke 😳
Ninja was smart putting it under the seat these companies know everybody is getting an aftermarket exhaust so you would think they would make it simple to remove or put a servo buddy
So is there a way of just fitting the Heeltech without all that buggery? great channel BTW

Great video. Why don’t you just unplug the servo instead of opening it up and remove the exhaust with the box complete?
I was in the process of decatting the bike

I have this to do also today; I’ll watch you first 👍
Success. I did it a little differently, but your tip about just pulling the connector was spot on.

OK, thank you. I got that. However, I have not noticed this with my 1200 RS so far.....

Bud, you could have saved yourself a whole heap of heartache, and money by just cutting the cables. The ecu doesn't know that the flap isn't moving.
Could've done, but wouldn't be able to put it back on if needed. (Which I did have to do in the end)
Cheers!
Did you give your bike a "new name" during this procedure? Every time I have a frustrating task on the bike, my baby gets a few "choice" new names.
Nothing nice 🥲🤣🤣
What was the reason for removing the servo motor,? Just for a better sound or was there more to it .?.
Better sound and a bit more up-top but I can't confirm figures as I didn't have it dynoed
So there is no MOT where you live?
Not on new bikes (three years as of reg date) and they don't account for emissions for motorbikes from what I understand. They wouldn't pick up on this as part of an MOT if that's what you're Insinuating (?)
Does this void the warranty?
Also I've heard in the past that removing the servo you loose a little torque in low rpms..
Not sure, but you can always re install it if needed with no issues.
Torque-wise it definitely needs a remap as the fuelling down low is atrocious anyway, but I don't notice much of a loss
Hello!! Excuse me, I’m same triple 1200 rs rider, I want know where can buy this sensor, thanks.
Hey there, you should be able to find these on eBay or on Healtechs website. Just search for something like "2020+ Healtech Servo eliminator"
What tank grips are those
Eazigrip my man, check out the install vid on the channel
@@sergeantsodom6969 thanks
You couldn't just take cable off put a full system on one of my bikes just took cable off?
Probably, however in order to remove the cables you've got to take the servo out... so somewhat pointless and you'll also probably be getting error codes
Ok got you
@@sergeantsodom6969 i got a triple second hand with the cables removed but the motor is still attached. Maybe the last owner tried to save money and didnt bother with the eliminator. I get no error codes and the bike runs perfect.

Honestly i'm not sure. Knowing these days, probably
How did you leave the valve open ?
The valve is set to the open position when not under tension from the cables.
@@sergeantsodom6969 What do I do with the spring ?
@@MrPartyfighter The spring is what keeps the butterfly valve open, you don't do anything with it
@@sergeantsodom6969 When I have disconnected the cables, I can turn the flap, but it springs back again
So with the servo eliminator exhaust stays open both outlets
Yup
@sergeantsodom6969 thanks for getting back to me
Urgh. Dreading this!
