Maintenance and Adjustment

Tire Inflation Pressures

Correct tire inflation pressures will
provide maximum stability, rider comfort
and tire life. Always check tire pressures
before riding when the tires are cold.
Check tire pressures daily and adjust if
necessary (see Specifications section for
correct inflation
Alternatively, ask your
Triumph dealer to inspect your wheels
and tires.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(if equipped)
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
pressure. The cold inflation pressures
specified by Triumph take account of
this.
Owners must only adjust tire pressures
when the tires are cold using an
accurate pressure gauge, and must not
use the tire pressure display on the
instruments.

Over-inflation will cause instability and
accelerated tread wear.
Both conditions are dangerous as
they may cause loss of control leading
to an accident.
Tire pressures
reduced for off-road riding will impair
on-road stability. Always ensure the
tire pressures are set as described in
the inflation
the Specifications section for on-road
use.
Operation of the motorcycle with
incorrect tire pressures may cause
loss of motorcycle control leading to
an accident.

Tire Wear

cboa
As the tire tread wears down, the tire
becomes more susceptible to punctures.
It is estimated that 90% of all tire
problems occur during the last 10% of
tread life (90% worn). It is therefore not
recommended to use tires until they are
worn to their minimum.
