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.
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
affect
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
authorized Triumph dealer will have
this knowledge and equipment.
Since
incorrect
or
neglected
maintenance can lead to a dangerous
riding condition, always have an
authorized Triumph dealer carry out
the scheduled maintenance of this
motorcycle.
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 traveling less than
10,000
miles (16,000
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
traveling
approximately
10,000
miles
(16,000
km) per year must have the
annual
maintenance
and
the
specified mileage based items
carried out together.
3.
Motorcycles traveling more than
10,000
miles (16,000
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 authorized 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.
