Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) (if equipped)
An adhesive label is installed to the
wheel rim to indicate the position of
the tire pressure sensor.
Care must be taken when replacing
the tires to prevent any damage to
the tire pressure sensors.
Always have the tires mounted by
an authorized Triumph dealer. It is
important to inform them that tire
pressure sensors are installed on the
wheels before they remove the tires.
Do not use anti puncture fluid or any
other item likely to obstruct air flow
to the TPMS sensor's orifices. Any
blockage to the air pressure orifice of
the TPMS sensor during operation will
cause the sensor to become blocked,
causing irreparable damage to the
TPMS sensor assembly.

The tire pressures shown on your
instruments indicate the actual tire
pressure at the time of selecting
the display. This may differ from the
inflation pressure set when the tires
are cold because tires become warmer
during riding, causing the air in the tire
to expand and increase the inflation
pressure. The cold inflation pressures
specified by Triumph take account of
this.
Only adjust
the tires are cold using an accurate
pressure gage. Do not use the tire
pressure display on the instruments.

Tire Wear

As the tire tread wears down, the tire
becomes more susceptible to punctures
and failure. It is estimated that 90%
of all tire problems occur during the
last 10% of tread life (90% worn). It is
recommended that tires are changed
before they are worn to their minimum
tread depth.
