Engine casing cover bolts for Triumph Tiger Explorer 1200 XC 2015

This model-specific kit supplies 60x stainless steel replacement bolts for the original clutch, right and left crank, slave-cylinder, balancer, gearchange and sump casing positions on the Triumph Tiger Explorer 1200 XC 2015. Quantities, original Triumph references and diagram callouts are listed below.

Select the engine version before ordering. Eight left crank-cover bolts change at the engine-number boundary shown below. Each selected kit contains 60x bolts; the two alternatives are not added together.

What you receive

• 60x stainless steel engine casing cover bolts.
• 1x copper sealing washer for the long gearchange-cover bolt.
• 1x Biker Bling anti-seize compound pack (7 g).

Engine version A: through engine 689626, or through 691438 for Brazilian-market motorcycles: 8x left crank-cover bolts replacing T3205067. Engine version B: from engine 689627, or from 691439 for Brazilian-market motorcycles: 8x left crank-cover bolts replacing T3205083. These are engine numbers, not VIN endings. The original illustration labels this group 7; the catalogue allocates the alternatives at item 31.

Triumph references identify the original components. Biker Bling supplies aftermarket replacements, not genuine Triumph-branded hardware.

Model-specific engine cover fixings

Keep the clutch cover bolts, crank cover bolts and gearchange fixings organised by location. Match each group to the original mounting positions; this kit does not replace the structural bolts joining the crankcase halves.

The long gearchange-cover bolt uses the included copper sealing washer. Fit this washer at its specified position; it is not a water-pump washer.

When comparing replacement engine bolt kits, check the covered locations, quantities and original references. Read our guide to generic and model-specific motorcycle bolt kits and browse the Triumph Tiger Explorer 1200 XC 2015 fastener range.

Important fitment notes

• Compatibility: Triumph Tiger Explorer 1200 XC 2015 with the original 1215cc engine covers. Check the exact model, engine number, VIN and original components.
• Modified parts: Replacement covers, case savers or protective accessories may require different hardware. Their additional mounting bolts are not included.
• Materials and head style: The replacement bolts are stainless steel; the sealing washer is copper. Head appearance may differ from the originals. Material alone does not establish mechanical-strength equivalence. Hardware photographs may be generic.
• Not included: Covers, gaskets, seals, dowels, drain plugs, breather-cover bolts, coolant-return elbow bolts, internal oil/water-pump fixings, structural crankcase bolts, decorative badge or protector fixings and separate cable/bracket hardware.

When should you replace engine casing bolts?

• Corroded or damaged heads: Inspect the fixings before cover servicing.
• Damaged threads or missing bolts: Check both the bolt and its mounting threads.
• Engine-cover maintenance: Retain the original fitting positions and identify the correct replacements before reassembly.

Replacement bolts cannot repair stripped threads, cracked covers or damaged sealing faces.

Fitting information

• Identify the positions: Use the matching fitting diagram and the exact Triumph workshop procedure. Start the correct fasteners by hand; do not pull a misaligned cover into place with a bolt.
• Seals and gaskets: Replace disturbed gaskets and sealing components where specified. Covers and replacement gaskets are not supplied.
• Tightening and thread condition: Follow the specified sequence, torque and thread treatment. Anti-seize is not an instruction to lubricate every fixing; it changes the torque-to-clamping-force relationship. Use compounds only where appropriate to the specified installation.
• Final checks: Restore specified oil and coolant levels where disturbed, inspect for leaks and confirm secure assembly before riding. Have uncertain work completed or checked by a qualified motorcycle technician.

Customer questions

Why must I select an engine version?

The original left crank-cover fixing reference changes at the engine-number boundary. Both selections contain 60x bolts and 1x copper washer; only the eight left-cover bolts change. Check the engine number and original reference before selecting.

Is anti-seize included?

Yes. The kit includes 1x Biker Bling anti-seize compound pack (7 g), separately from the bolt total. Use it only where the fitting procedure permits.
