So the whole job takes a bit over quarter of an hour during which, at no stage, will you be tempted to play with the throttle.
A search of the Triumph RAT Forums will show numerous threads during which the "12 minute tune-up" is mentioned.
Of course it takes somewhat over 1/4 of an hour but it can be time well spent.
