WARNING
Always perform the daily safety
checks every day before you ride the
motorcycle.
Failure to perform these daily safety
checks may lead to loss of motorcycle
control which could result in
motorcycle damage, serious injury or
death.
Check the following items each day
before you ride. The time required is
minimal, and these checks will help make
sure you have a safe, reliable ride.
If any irregularities are found during
these checks, refer to the Maintenance
and Adjustment section or contact a
competent person with the specialist
knowledge and technical understanding
of motorcycles, such as an authorised
Triumph dealer for the action required
to return the motorcycle to a safe
operating condition.
Check:
Fuel: Adequate supply in tank, no fuel
leaks (see page81).
Engine Oil: Correct level on dipstick. Add
correct specification oil as required. No
leaks from the engine or oil cooler (see
page132).
Drive Chain: Correct adjustment (see
page145).
Tyres/Wheels: Correct inflation
pressures (when cold). Tread depth/
wear, tyre/wheel damage, punctures
etc. (see page167).
Nuts, Bolts, Fasteners: Visually check
that steering and suspension
components, axles, and all controls are
properly tightened or fastened. Inspect
all areas for loose/damaged fixings.
Steering Action: Smooth but not loose
from lock to lock. No binding of any of
the control cables (see page160).
Brakes: Pull the brake lever and push
the brake pedal to check for correct
resistance. Investigate any lever/pedal
where the travel is excessive before
meeting resistance, or if either control
feels spongy in operation (see
page151).
Brake Pads: Check that the correct
amount of friction material is remaining
on all the brake pads (see page151).
