• Make sure the same adjuster
marking is aligned with the spindle
adjuster on both sides of the
swinging arm.
• Tighten both adjuster lock nuts to
20 Nm
and the rear wheel spindle
nut to
110 Nm
.
• Repeat the chain adjustment check.
Readjust if necessary.
Warning
Operation of the motorcycle with inse-
cure adjuster lock nuts or a loose
wheel spindle may result in impaired
stability and handling of the motorcy-
cle. This impaired stability and handling
may lead to loss of control or an acci-
dent.
• Check the rear brake effectiveness.
Rectify if necessary.
Warning
It is dangerous to operate the
motorcycle with defective brakes; you
must have your authorised Triumph
dealer take remedial action before you
attempt to ride the motorcycle again.
Failure to take remedial action may
reduce braking efficiency leading to
loss of motorcycle control or an
accident.
Chain and Sprocket Wear Inspection
Warning
Never neglect chain maintenance and
always have chains installed by an au-
thorised Triumph dealer. Use a genuine
Triumph supplied chain as specified in
the Triumph Parts Catalogue.
The use of non-approved chains may
result in a broken chain or may cause
the chain to jump off the sprockets
leading to loss of motorcycle control or
an accident.
Caution
If the sprockets are found to be worn,
always replace the sprockets and drive
chain together.
Replacing worn sprockets without also
replacing the chain will lead to prema-
ture wear of the new sprockets.
