immediately and investigate the cause.
Running the engine with low oil pressure
will cause engine damage.
• Stop the engine and re-check the oil
level. Adjust if necessary.

Disposal of Used Engine Oil

Oil Specification and Grade

Triumph high performance engines are
designed to use semi or fully synthetic
10W/40 or 15W/50 motorcycle engine oil
which meets specification API SH or higher
(i.e. SJ, SK or SL) AND JASO MA.
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
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.
Ensure no foreign matter enters the
crankcase during an oil change or top-up.
