Tyre Wear
As the tyre tread wears down, the tyre
becomes more susceptible to punctures.
It is estimated that 90% of all tyre
problems occur during the last 10% of
tread life (90% worn). It is therefore not
recommended to use tyres until they are
worn to their minimum.
Minimum Recommended Tread
Depth
In accordance with the periodic
maintenance chart, measure the depth
of the tread with a depth gauge, and
replace any tyre that has worn to, or
beyond, the minimum allowable tread
depth specified in the table below:
Under 130 km/h
(80 mph)
2 mm (0.08 in)
Over 130 km/h
(80 mph)
Rear 3 mm (0.12 in)
Front 2 mm (0.08 in)
Warning
This motorcycle must not be operated
above the legal road speed limit
except in authorised closed-course
conditions.

Warning
Only operate this Triumph motorcycle
at high speed in closed-course on-
road competition or on closed-course
racetracks. High-speed operation
should only then be attempted by
riders who have been instructed in the
techniques necessary for high-speed
riding and are familiar with the
motorcycle's characteristics in all
conditions. High-speed operation in
any other circumstances is dangerous
and will lead to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
Operation with excessively worn tyres
is hazardous and will adversely affect
traction, stability and handling which
may lead to loss of control and an
accident.
When tyres become punctured,
leakage is often very slow. Always
inspect tyres very closely for
punctures. Check the tyres for cuts,
embedded nails or other sharp
objects. Operation with punctured or
damaged tyres will adversely affect
stability and handling which may lead
to loss of control or an accident.
Check the rims for dents or
deformation and spokes for looseness
and damage. Operation with damaged
or defective wheels, spokes or tyres is
dangerous and loss of control or an
accident could result.
Always consult your authorised
Triumph dealer for tyre replacement,
or for a safety inspection of the
wheels, spokes and tyres.
