Tyre Replacement
All Triumph motorcycles are carefully
and extensively tested in a range
of riding conditions to ensure that
the most effective tyre combinations
are approved for use on each model.
It is essential that approved tyres
and inner tubes (if installed) fitted in
approved combinations, are used when
purchasing replacement items. The use
of non-approved tyres and inner tubes,
or approved tyres and inner tubes in
non-approved combinations, may lead
to motorcycle instability, loss of control
and an accident.
A list of approved tyres and inner tubes
specific to your motorcycle are available
from your authorised Triumph dealer, or
on the Internet at www.
triumph. co. uk.
Always have tyres and inner tubes
fitted and balanced by your authorised
Triumph dealer who has the necessary
training and skills to ensure safe,
effective fitment.
When replacement tyres or inner tubes
are required, consult your authorised
Triumph dealer who will arrange for the
tyres and inner tubes to be selected,
in a correct combination, from the
approved list and fitted according to
the tyre and inner tube manufacturer's
instructions.
Initially, the new tyres and inner tubes
will not produce the same handling
characteristics as the worn tyres and
inner tubes and the rider must allow
adequate riding distance (approximately
100 miles (160
km)) to become
accustomed to the new handling
characteristics.
24
hours after fitting, the tyre
pressures must be checked and
adjusted, and the tyres and inner
tubes examined for correct seating.
Rectification must be carried out as
necessary. The same checks and
adjustments must also be carried out
when 100
miles (160
km) have been
travelled after fitting.
Warning
Inner tubes must only be used on
motorcycles fitted with spoked wheels
and with tyres marked 'TUBE TYPE'.
Some brands of approved tyres
marked 'TUBELESS' may be suitable for
use with an inner tube. Where this is
the case, the tyre wall will be marked
with text permitting the fitment of an
inner tube.
Use of an inner tube with a tyre
marked 'TUBELESS', and NOT marked
as suitable for use with an inner
tube, or use of an inner tube on an
alloy wheel marked 'SUITABLE FOR
TUBELESS TYRES' will cause deflation
of the tyre resulting in loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
