CLEANING AND STORAGE
▼ Set the motorcycle on a stand so
that both wheels are raised off the
ground. (If this cannot be done, put
boards under the front and rear
wheels to keep dampness away from
the tires).
▼ Spray rust inhibiting oil (there are
numerous products on the market
and your dealer will be able to offer
you local advice) on all unpainted
metal surfaces to prevent rusting.
Prevent oil from getting on rubber
parts, brake discs or in the brake
calipers.
▼ Lubricate and if necessary adjust the
drive chain (see page 149).
▼ Make sure the cooling system is filled
with a 50% mixture of coolant
(noting that
coolant, as supplied by Triumph, is
pre-mixed and requires no dilution)
and distilled water solution (see
page 144).

where it will not be exposed to direct
sunlight, moisture,

Ampere or less) about once every
two weeks (see page 182).
▼ Store the motorcycle in a cool, dry
area, away from sunlight, and with a
minimum daily temperature variation.
▼ Put a suitable porous cover over the
motorcycle to keep dust and dirt
from collecting on it. Avoid using
plastic or similar non-breathable,
coated materials that restrict air flow
and allow heat and moisture to
accumulate.
