Tyre Replacement - Triumph Explorer Owner's Handbook Manual

Maintenance and Adjustment

Tyre Replacement

All Triumph motorcycles are carefully
and extensively tested in a range of
riding conditions to ensure that the
most effective tyre combinations are
approved for use on this model. It is
essential that approved tyres, fitted in
approved combinations, are used when
purchasing replacement tyres. The use
of non-approved tyres, or approved
tyres in non-approved combinations,
may lead to motorcycle instability and
an accident. On models fitted with ABS,
different wheel speeds, caused by non-
approved tyres can affect the function
of the ABS computer.
See the Specification section for details
of approved tyre combinations. Always
have tyres fitted and balanced by your
authorised Triumph dealer who has the
necessary training and skills to ensure
safe, effective fitment.

Caution
An adhesive label is fitted to the wheel
rim to indicate the position of the tyre
pressure sensor. Care must be taken
when replacing the tyres to prevent
any damage to the tyre pressure
sensors. Always have your tyres fitted
by your authorised Triumph dealer
and inform them that tyre pressure
sensors are fitted to the wheels.
Caution
Do not use anti puncture fluid or any
other item likely to obstruct air flow to
the TPMS sensor's orifices.
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.
caused by the use of anti puncture
fluid or incorrect maintenance is not
considered a manufacturing defect
and will not be covered

fitted by your authorised Triumph
dealer and inform them that tyre
pressure sensors are fitted to the
wheels.
