ground.
•
While holding the handlebars and
applying the front brake, pump the
forks up and down several times.
•
If roughness or excessive stiffness
is detected, consult your authorized
Triumph dealer.

Examine each fork for any sign of
damage, scratching of the slider
surface, or for oil leaks.
•
If any damage or leakage is found,
consult an authorized Triumph
dealer.
