Maintenance and Adjustment
Coolant Level Adjustment
Allow the engine to cool.
1. Intake cover
2. Intake cover front fixing
3. Intake cover centre support
4. Intake cover rear support
Remove the intake cover as follows: Remove
the fixing from the front and then slide the
cover to the front of the motorcycle to release
it from the centre and rear supports.
Remove the cap from the expansion tank,
and add coolant mixture through the filler
opening until the level reaches the MAX
mark. Refit the cap.
Note:
• If the coolant level is being
checked because the coolant has
overheated, also check the level in
the radiator and top up if
necessary.
• In an emergency, water alone can
be added to the cooling system.
However, the coolant must then
be changed and returned to the
correct mixture ratio using
distilled water and new coolant as
soon as possible.
Refit the intake cover as follows: Align the
cover to the centre and rear supports and
ease it into place. Fit and tighten the fixing to
9Nm.
Coolant Change
Have the coolant changed by an authorised
Triumph dealer in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements.
Warning
Do not remove the expansion tank or
radiator pressure cap when the engine is
hot. When the engine is hot, the coolant
inside the expansion tank will be hot and
also under pressure. Contact with this hot,
pressurised coolant will cause scalds and
skin damage.
