Tyre Replacement
All Triumph motorcycles are carefully and
extensively tested in a range of riding
conditions to ensure that the most effective
tyre combinations are approved for use on
each model. It is essential that approved
tyres, fitted in approved combinations, are
used when purchasing replacement tyres.
The use of non approved tyres, or approved
tyres in non approved combinations, may
lead to motorcycle instability and an
accident. See the specification section for
details of approved tyre combinations.
Always have tyres fitted and balanced by
your authorised Triumph dealer who has the
necessary training and skills to ensure safe,
effective fitment.
WARNING: If a tyre sustains
a puncture, the tyre must be
replaced. Failure to replace a
punctured tyre, or operation with a
repaired tyre can lead to instability,
loss of control or an accident.

resulting head build- - up may cause
the tube to burst resulting in rapid
tyre deflation, loss of vehicle control
and an accident.
