Chain and Sprocket Wear Inspection

Never neglect chain maintenance and
always have chains installed by an au-
thorised Triumph dealer. Use a genuine
Triumph supplied chain as specified in
the Triumph Parts Catalogue.
The use of non-approved chains may
result in a broken chain or may cause
the chain to jump off the sprockets
leading to loss of motorcycle control or
an accident.
If the sprockets are found to be worn,
always replace the sprockets and drive
chain together.
Replacing worn sprockets without also
replacing the chain will lead to prema-
ture wear of the new sprockets.
