WARNING
Use only DOT 4 specification brake fluid as listed in the general information section of this manual. The use
of brake fluids other than those DOT 4 fluids listed in the general information section may reduce the
efficiency of the braking system leading to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
Observe the brake fluid handling warnings given earlier in this section of the manual.
CAUTION
To prevent paint damage, do not spill brake fluid onto any area of the bodywork. Spilled brake fluid will
damage paintwork.
Fill the master cylinder with new, DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container.
Bleed the front brakes (see Bleeding the Front Brakes, Renewing Brake Fluid).
Check the brakes for correct operation. Rectify any faults as 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 and an accident.
Front Discs - Removal
WARNING
Before starting work, ensure the motorcycle is stabilised and adequately supported. This will help prevent it
from falling and causing injury to the operator or damage to the motorcycle.
WARNING
Do not renew front brake discs individually. Discs must always be renewed in pairs even if one of a pair is
serviceable.
A dangerous riding condition leading to an accident could result if this warning is ignored.
Remove the front wheel (see Front Wheel - Removal).
