Warning
Continued
Only use self-adhesive weights. Clip on
weights may damage the wheel, tire or
inner tube resulting in tire deflation,
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Warning
When replacement tires or inner tubes
are required, consult your authorized
Triumph dealer who will arrange for
the tires and inner tubes to be
selected, in a correct combination, from
the approved list and mounted
according to the tire and inner tube
manufacturer's instructions.
When tires and inner tubes are
replaced, allow time for the tires and
inner tubes to seat to the rim
(approximately 24 hours). During this
seating period, ride cautiously as an
incorrectly seated tire or inner tube
could cause instability, loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Initially, the new tires and inner tubes
will not produce the same handling
characteristics as the worn tires and
inner tubes and the rider must allow
adequate riding distance
(approximately 100 miles (160 km)) to
become accustomed to the new
handling characteristics.
Warning
Continued
24 hours after fitting, the tire
pressures must be checked and
adjusted, and the tires and inner tubes
examined for correct seating.
Rectification must be carried out as
necessary. The same checks and
adjustments must also be carried out
when 100 miles (160 km) have been
travelled after fitting.
Use of a motorcycle with incorrectly
seated tires or inner tubes, incorrectly
adjusted tire pressures, or when not
accustomed to its handling
characteristics may lead to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(Only on models equipped with
TPMS)
Caution
An adhesive label is mounted to the
wheel rim to indicate the position of
the tire pressure sensor. Care must be
taken when replacing the tires to
prevent any damage to the tire
pressure sensors. Always have your
tires mounted by your authorized
Triumph dealer and inform them that
tire pressure sensors are installed to
the wheels.
