Maintenance

Warning
If tire damage is suspected, such
as after striking the curb, ask your
authorized Triumph dealer to inspect
the tire both internally and externally.
Tire damage may not always be visible
from the outside.
Operation of the motorcycle with
damaged tires could lead to loss of
control and an accident.
Warning
Use of a motorcycle with incorrectly
seated tires, incorrectly adjusted tire
pressures, or when not accustomed to
its handling characteristics may lead
to loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Warning
The ABS system operates by
comparing the relative speed of the
front and rear wheels.
Use of non-recommended tires can
affect wheel speed and cause the ABS
function not to operate, potentially
leading to loss of motorcycle control
and an accident in conditions where
the ABS would normally function.
Warning
Accurate wheel balance is necessary
for safe, stable handling of the
motorcycle. Do not remove or change
any wheel balance weights. Incorrect
wheel balance may cause instability
leading to loss of control and an
accident.
When wheel balancing is required,
such as after tire replacement, see
your authorized Triumph dealer.
Only use self-adhesive weights. Clip
on weights may damage the wheel or
tire resulting in tire deflation, loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
Tires that have been used on a rolling
road dynamometer may become
damaged. In some cases, the damage
may not be visible on the external
surface of the tire.
Tires must be replaced after such
use as continued use of a damaged
tire may lead to instability, loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
