Tyre Inflation Pressures
Correct tyre inflation pressures will provide
maximum stability, rider comfort and tyre life.
Always check tyre pressures before riding
when the tyres are cold. Check tyre pressures
daily and adjust if necessary (see Specification
section for correct inflation pressures).
Alternatively, ask your authorised Triumph
dealer to inspect your wheels and tyres.
Warning
Inner tubes must only be used on
motorcycles fitted with spoked wheels and
with tyres marked 'TUBE TYPE'.
Some brands of approved tyre marked
'TUBELESS' may be suitable for use with
an inner tube. Where this is the case, the
tyre wall will be marked with text
permitting the fitment of an inner tube (see
illustration below).
Use of an inner tube with a tyre marked
'TUBELESS', and NOT marked as suitable
for use with an inner tube, or use of an
inner tube on an alloy wheel marked
'SUITABLE FOR TUBELESS TYRES' will
cause deflation of the tyre resulting in loss
of motorcycle control and an accident.

Warning
Incorrect tyre inflation will cause abnormal
tread wear and instability problems which
may lead to loss of control and an accident.
Under-inflation may result in the tyre
slipping on, or coming off the rim.
Over-inflation will cause instability and
accelerated tread wear.
Both conditions are dangerous as they may
cause loss of control leading to an accident.
