Triumph Bonneville T100 Series Owner's Handbook Manual page 137

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, from the
approved list and fitted according to
the tyre and inner tube manufacturer's
instructions.
Initially, the new tyres and inner tubes
will not produce the same handling
characteristics as the worn tyres and
inner tubes and the rider must allow
adequate riding distance (approximately
100 miles (160 km))
accustomed to
characteristics.
24 hours after
pressures must
adjusted, and the tyres and inner
tubes examined for correct seating.
Rectification must be carried out as
necessary. The
adjustments must also be carried out
when 100 miles (160 km) have been
travelled after fitting.
Warning
Inner tubes must only be used on
motorcycles fitted with spoked wheels
and with tyres marked 'TUBE TYPE'.
Some brands
marked 'TUBELESS' may be suitable for
use with an inner tube. Where this is
the case, the tyre wall will be marked
with text permitting the fitment of an
inner tube.

Maintenance and Adjustment
Use of an inner tube with a tyre
marked 'TUBELESS', and NOT marked
as suitable for use with an inner
tube, or use of an inner tube on an
alloy wheel marked 'SUITABLE FOR
TUBELESS TYRES' will cause deflation
of the tyre resulting in loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Do not install tube type tyres on
tubeless rims.
The bead will not seat and the tyres
tyre
could slip on the rims, causing rapid
and
tyre deflation that may result in a loss
of motorcycle control and an accident.
Never install an inner tube inside a
and
tubeless tyre without the appropriate
marking. This will cause friction inside
the tyre and the resulting heat build-
up may cause the tube to burst
resulting in rapid tyre deflation, loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
If a tyre or inner tube sustains a
puncture, the tyre and inner tube
must be replaced.
Failure to replace a punctured tyre
and inner tube, or operation with a
repaired tyre or inner tube can lead to
instability, loss of motorcycle control
or an accident.
