Operation with excessively worn tyres is hazardous
and will adversely affect traction, stability and
handling which may lead to loss of control or an
accident.
When tubeless tyres become punctured, leakage is
often very slow. Always inspect tyres very closely for
punctures.
Check the tyres for cuts, imbedded nails or other
sharp objects.
Check the rims for dents or deformation. Operation
with damaged or defective wheels or tyres is
dangerous and loss of control or an accident could
result.
Always consult your Triumph dealer for tyre
replacement, or for a safety inspection of the tyres.
Minimum Recommended Tread Depth
The following chart can be used as a guide to the
minimum safe tread depth.
If a tyre sustains a puncture, the tyre must be
replaced. Failure to replace a punctured tyre, or
operation with a repaired tyre can lead to instability,
loss of control or an accident.
Never use an inner tube to repair'a punctured tyre.
The rough surface inside the tyre can chafe the tube
leading to instability, rapid deflation, loss of control
and an accident.
Under 130
kmlh (80
mph)
The use of tyres other than those hted in the
2 mm (0.08 in)
specification iection of the owner's handbook may
adversely affect handling leading to loss of control or
an accident.
Use the recommended tyre options only in the
combinations given in the owner's handbook.
Do not mix tyres from different manufacturers or
tyres from the same manufacturer but from another
option.
Over 130
kmlh (80 Rear 3 mm (0.12 in)

Front 2 mm (0.08 in)
Always check tyre pressures before riding when the
tyres are cold. Operation with incorrectly inflated
tyres may affect handling leading to loss of control
and an accident.

Important Tyre Information
All Triumph motorcycles are carefully and extensively
tested in a range of riding conditions to ensure that
the most effective tyre combinations are approved for
use on each model. It is essential that approved tyre
combinations are used when purchasing replacement
tyres as the use of non approved tyres or approved
tyres in non approved combinations may lead to
motorcycle instability. Always refer to the owner's
handbook data section for details of approved tyres
and tyre combinations.
Operation with excessively worn or damaged tyres
will adversely affect handling and control leading to
loss of control or an accident.
/
Do not install tube-type tyres on tubeless rims. The
bead will not seat id the tyres could slip on the
rims, causing tyre deflation that may result in a loss
of vehicle control and an accident.
Do not install an inner tube inside a tubeless tyre.
This may cause instability and excessive heat build-
up may cause the tube to burst resulting in rapid tyre
deflation, loss of vehicle control and an accident.
