Maintenance
Warning
Accurate wheel balance is necessary
for safe, stable
motorcycle. Do not remove or change
any wheel balance weights. Incorrect
wheel balance may cause instability
leading to loss of control and an
accident.
When wheel balancing is required, such
as after tyre or inner tube replacement,
see your authorised Triumph dealer.
Only use self-adhesive weights. Clip on
weights may damage the wheel, tyre or
inner tube resulting in tyre deflation,
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Warning
When replacement tyres or inner tubes
are required, consult your authorised
Triumph dealer who will arrange for the
tyres and inner tubes to be selected, in
a correct combination,
approved list and fitted according to
the tyre and inner tube manufacturer's
instructions.
When tyres and inner tubes are
replaced, allow time for the tyres and
inner tubes to
(approximately 24 hours). During this
seating period, ride cautiously as an
incorrectly seated tyre or inner tube
could cause
motorcycle control and an accident.
