Do not place used oil filters in with
general waste. If in doubt, contact your
local authority.
Engine Oil Specification and Grade

synthetic motorcycle engine oil that
meets specification API SH (or higher)
and JASO MA. Triumph Performance fully
synthetic engine oil is recommended.
Refer to the chart below for the correct

Do not add any chemical additives
to the engine oil. The engine oil also
lubricates the clutch and any additives
could cause the clutch to slip.
Do not use mineral, vegetable, non-
detergent oil, castor based oils or any
oil not conforming to the required
specification. The use of these oils may
cause instant, severe engine damage.
Make sure that no foreign matter enters
the crankcase during an engine oil
change or top off.
