NEEDED ~ Kyosho Triumph manual or copy...anyone?

[orangemazda]

Hey Kyosho Triumph guys, I just picked up a project Triumph that needs a lot of help. Anyone have a spare manual or willing to run me off a copy of your assembly manual?

Thanks

I think mine survived the fire...I'll see what I can do. Might be able to scan it as a PDF for you?

That would be awesome, thanks!

Thanks to orangemazda this Truimph has a new home.

While Googling a manual this thread popped up. So Kevin did do some of the hard work for me.

I am lucky enough to have a new set of Kyosho medium gold front shocks that was in my shock bin. I got them long time ago way before I got into vintage. So I knew I had the shocks covered. My mate has a NB Truimph so he is tracing out the top deck for me to duplicate in carbon fiber or polished alloy. Not sure which material to use yet. I custom made a front bumper out of thin alloy plate. A new gear cover was sourced of Fire Boy's E bay shop. Very lucky on that. I had a Lazer ZX-R wing mount on one of my Ultim's so it has made it's way on to the Truimph & the cheaper Lazer mounts ( non adj ) were thrown on the Ultima instead. The steering set up was all wrong as it had massive bump steer & Kyosho don't do that. Who ever threw that huge servo saver on really upset the whole steering set up as the bell cranks were turned around to take it therefore the cranks pushed the body shell way out on full lock. Took a while to sort that out.

A new TBG body is being painted up in box art & when Tamkyo re opens the decals will be ordered.

Once again a big thank you to Kevin for the Truimph and going to the trouble of taking it apart to help on postage cost.

Cheers
Mark
