Introduction
This manual is designed primarily for use by trained technicians in a properly equipped
workshop. However, it contains enough detail and basic information to make it useful to
the owner who desires to perform his own basic maintenance and repair work. The work
can only be carried out if the owner has the necessary hand and special service tools to
complete the job.
A basic knowledge of mechanics, including the proper use of tools and workshop
procedures is necessary in order to carry out maintenance and repair work satisfactorily.
Whenever the owner has insufficient experience or doubts regarding his ability to do the
work, an authorised Triumph dealer must undertake all adjustments, maintenance, and
repair work.
In order to perform the work efficiently and to avoid costly mistakes, read the text and
thoroughly familiarise yourself with procedures before starting work.
All work should be performed with great care and in a clean working area with adequate
lighting.
Always use the correct special service tools or equipment specified. Under no
circumstances use makeshift tools or equipment since the use of substitutes may
adversely affect safe operation.
Where accurate measurements are required, they can only be made using calibrated,
precision instruments.
For the duration of the warranty period, an authorised Triumph dealer must perform all
repairs and scheduled maintenance.
To maximise the life of your motorcycle:
• Accurately follow the maintenance requirements of the periodic maintenance
chart in the Service Manual.
• Do not allow problems to develop. Investigate unusual noises and changes in the
riding characteristics of the motorcycle. Rectify all problems as soon as possible
(immediately if safety related).
• Use only genuine Triumph parts as listed in the electronic parts catalogue (EPC).
