Maintenance and Adjustment
Chain Free-Movement Adjustment
1. Adjuster clamp bolt
2. C-spanner
3. Eccentric adjuster
Loosen the adjuster clamp bolt.
Using the C-spanner supplied in the tool kit,
turn the rear hub/eccentric adjuster
(clockwise to loosen, anti-clockwise to tighten)
until the drive chain is correctly adjusted.
Tighten the clamp bolt to 55 Nm.
Repeat the chain adjustment check. Re-adjust
if necessary.
Check the rear brake effectiveness. Rectify if
necessary.
Warning
Operation of the motorcycle with an
insecure rear hub/eccentric adjuster clamp
bolt may result in impaired stability and
handling of the motorcycle. This impaired
stability and handling may lead to loss of
control or an accident.
Warning
It is dangerous to operate the motorcycle
with defective brakes and you must have
your authorised Triumph dealer take
remedial action before you attempt to ride
the motorcycle again. Failure to take
remedial action may reduce braking
efficiency leading to loss of control or an
accident.
