Suspension

Front Fork Inspection

Warning
Riding the motorcycle with defective or
damaged suspension is dangerous and
may lead to loss of control and an acci-
dent.
Warning
Never attempt to dismantle any part of
the suspension units, as all units
contain pressurised oil. Skin and eye
damage can result from contact with
the pressurised oil.
Note:
• The suspension movement will be
affected by adjustment settings.
Examine each fork for any sign of dam-
age, scratching of the slider surface, or
for oil leaks.
If any damage or leakage is found,
consult an authorised Triumph dealer.
To check that
smoothly:
• Position the motorcycle on level
ground.
• While holding the handlebars and
applying the front brake, pump the
forks up and down several times.
• If roughness or excessive stiffness
is detected, consult your author-
ised Triumph dealer.
