If correct adjustment cannot be made
using the lever adjuster, use the cable
adjuster at the lower end of the cable.
Loosen the adjuster lock nut.
Turn the outer cable adjuster to give
0.08 ‑ 0.12 in (2 ‑ 3 mm) of free play at
the clutch lever.
Tighten the lock nut.

Drive Chain

cbnz
For safety and to prevent excessive
wear the drive chain must be checked,
adjusted and lubricated in accordance
with scheduled
requirements. Checking, adjustment and
lubrication must be carried out more
frequently for extreme conditions such
as salty or heavily gritted roads.
If the chain is badly worn or incorrectly
adjusted (either too loose or too tight)
the chain could jump off the sprockets
or break. Therefore, always replace worn
or damaged chains
Triumph parts supplied by an authorized
Triumph dealer.
Warning
A loose or worn chain, or a chain that
breaks or jumps off the sprockets
could catch on the engine sprocket or
lock the rear wheel.
A chain that snags on the engine
sprocket will injure the rider and lead
to loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Similarly, locking the rear wheel will
lead to loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.

Chain Lubrication

Lubrication is necessary every 200 miles
(300 km) and also after riding in wet
weather, on wet roads, or any time that
the chain appears dry.
