Only do this when your cyliders aren't budging and you don't have any special Triumph service tools. As was the case with this T140 Triumph Bonneville. Connect a tie down to the cylinders. Ratchet the motor up a few inches. Hit the motor with a block of wood- carefully. This works best if you have a second person to push down and steady the motor while the other hits it.
