1. Engine oil filter
2. Engine oil drain plug
To change the engine oil and engine oil
filter:
• Warm up the engine thoroughly,
and then stop the engine and
secure the motorcycle in an upright
position on level ground.
• Place an oil drain pan beneath the
engine.
• Remove the engine oil drain plug.
• Unscrew and remove the engine
oil filter using Triumph service tool
T3880313. Dispose of the old engine
oil filter in an environmentally
friendly way.
• Apply a thin smear of clean engine
oil to the sealing ring of the new
engine oil filter. Install the engine oil
filter and tighten to 89 lbf in (10 Nm).
• After the engine oil has completely
drained out, install a new sealing
washer to the drain plug. Install and
tighten the drain plug to 18 lbf ft
(25 Nm).
• Fill the engine with a 10W/40 or
10W/50 semi or fully synthetic
motorcycle engine oil that meets
specification API SH (or higher) and
JASO MA, such as Castrol Power 1
Racing 4T 10W-40 (fully synthetic).
• Start the engine and allow it to idle
for a minimum of 30 seconds.
Caution
Raising the engine speed above idle
before the oil reaches all parts of the
engine can cause engine damage or
seizure.
Only raise engine speed after running
the engine for 60 seconds to allow the
engine oil to circulate fully.
Caution
If the engine oil pressure is too low,
the low oil pressure warning light will
illuminate. If this light stays on when
the engine is running, stop the engine
immediately and investigate the cause.
Running the engine with low oil
pressure will cause engine damage.
• Make sure that the low oil pressure
warning light remains off and the
engine oil pressure message is not
shown in the instrument display
screen.
• Stop the engine and recheck the oil
level. Adjust if necessary.
