Warning
If a tyre or inner tube sustains a

tube can lead to instability, loss of

If tyre or inner tube damage is
suspected, such as after striking the
kerb, ask your authorised Triumph
dealer to inspect the tyre both
internally and externally and to also
inspect the inner tube. Remember,
tyre damage may not always be visible
from the outside. Operation of the
motorcycle with damaged tyres could
lead to loss of control and an accident.
