Scheduled Maintenance
To maintain the motorcycle in a safe and
reliable condition, the maintenance and
adjustments outlined in this section
must be carried out as specified in the
schedule of daily checks, and also in line
with the scheduled maintenance chart.
The information that follows describes
the procedures to follow when carrying
out the daily checks and some simple
maintenance and adjustment items.
Scheduled maintenance may be carried
out by your dealer in three ways; annual
maintenance, mileage based
maintenance or a combination of both,
depending on the mileage the
motorcycle travels each year.
1. Motorcycles travelling less than
6,000 miles (10,000 km) per year
must be maintained annually. In
addition to this, mileage based items
require maintenance at their
specified intervals, as the motorcycle
reaches this mileage.
2. Motorcycles travelling approximately
6,000 miles (10,000 km) per year
must have the annual maintenance
and the specified mileage based
items carried out together.
3. Motorcycles travelling more than
6,000
miles (10,000 km) per year
must have the mileage based items
maintained as the motorcycle
reaches the specified mileage. In
addition to this, annual based items
will require maintenance at their
specified annual intervals.
In all cases maintenance must be carried
out at or before the specified
maintenance intervals shown. Consult
an authorised Triumph dealer for advice
on which maintenance schedule is most
suitable for your motorcycle.
Triumph Motorcycles cannot accept any
responsibility for damage or injury
resulting from incorrect maintenance or
improper adjustment.
Warning
All maintenance is vitally important
and must not be neglected. Incorrect
maintenance or adjustment may
cause one or more parts of the
motorcycle to malfunction. A
malfunctioning motorcycle may lead
to loss of control and an accident.
Weather, terrain and geographical
location affects maintenance. The
maintenance schedule should be
adjusted to match the particular
environment in which the vehicle is
used and the demands of the
individual owner.
Special tools, knowledge and training
are required in order to correctly
carry out the maintenance items
listed in the scheduled maintenance
chart. Only an authorised Triumph
dealer will have this knowledge and
equipment.
Since incorrect or neglected
maintenance can lead to a dangerous
riding condition, always have an
authorised Triumph dealer carry out
the scheduled maintenance of this
motorcycle.
