The steering head bearings must be
lubricated and inspected in accordance
with scheduled maintenance
requirements. Always inspect the
wheel bearings at the same time as the
steering bearings.
Inspecting the Steering for Free Play
To inspect the steering:
• Position the motorcycle on level
ground, in an upright position.
• Raise the front wheel above the
ground and support the motorcycle.
• Standing at the front of the
motorcycle, hold the lower end of
the front forks and try to move
them forward and backward.
• If any free play can be detected in
the steering head bearings, ask
your authorized Triumph dealer to
inspect and rectify any faults before
riding.
• Remove the support and place the
motorcycle on the side stand.
Wheel Bearings Inspection
Warning
Riding with worn or damaged front
or rear wheel bearings is dangerous
and may cause impaired handling and
instability leading to an accident.
If in doubt, have the motorcycle
inspected by an authorized Triumph
dealer before riding.
The wheel bearings must be inspected
at the intervals specified in the
scheduled maintenance chart.
Inspecting the Wheel Bearings
To inspect the wheel bearings:
• Position the motorcycle on level
ground, in an upright position.
• Raise the front wheel off the ground
and support the motorcycle.
• Standing at the side of the
motorcycle, gently rock the top of
the front wheel from side to side.
• If any free play can be detected, ask
