The ABS computer operates by comparing the relative speed of the front and rear wheels. Use of non-recommended tyres can affect wheel speed and cause the ABS function not to operate, potentially leading to loss of motorcycle control and an accident in conditions where the ABS would normally function.

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.

Operation with excessively worn or damaged tyres will adversely affect handling and control leading to loss of control or an accident.

Inner tubes must only be used on motorcycles fitted with spoked wheels and with tyres marked 'TUBE-TYPE' unless marked otherwise.Use of an inner tube with a tyre marked 'TUBELESS' without appropriate marking and/or on an alloy wheel can lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.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. A list of approved tyres specific to this model is available from your authorised Triumph dealer, or on the internet at www.triumph.co.uk.

If a tyre or inner tube sustains a puncture, the tyre and inner tube must be replaced together. Failure to replace a punctured tyre and inner tube together, or operation with a repaired tyre or inner tube can lead to instability, loss of motorcycle control or an accident.If tyre or inner tube damage is suspected, such as after striking the kerb, ask your authorised Triumph dealer to inspect the tyre both internally and externally and to also inspect the inner tube. Remember, tyre damage may not always be visible from the outside. Operation of the motorcycle with damaged tyres could lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.When replacing a 'TUBE-TYPE' tyre on a spoked wheel, always inspect the rim tape (rim protection band) to ensure that it is correctly protecting the tube from the spoke threads. A damaged rim tape may lead to rapid tyre deflation causing loss of control and an accident.

Do not install tube-type tyres on tubeless rims. The bead will not seat and the tyres could slip on the rims, causing tyre deflation that may result in a loss of motorcycle control and an accident.Do not install an inner tube inside a tubeless tyre unless it is clearly marked on the side wall that you can do so. 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.

The use of tyres other than those listed at your authorised Triumph dealer, or on the internet, at www.triumph.co.uk, may adversely affect handling leading to loss of motorcycle control or an accident. Use the recommended tyre options only in the combinations listed at your authorised Triumph dealer, or on the internet at www.triumph.co.uk. Do not mix tyres from different manufacturers or tyres from the same manufacturer but from another option.

Accurate wheel balance is important for safe, stable handling of the motorcycle. Do not remove or change any wheel balance weights. Incorrect wheel balance may cause instability leading to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.When wheel balancing is required, such as after tyre replacement, see your authorised Triumph dealer.Only use self-adhesive weights. Clip-on weights will damage the wheel and tyre potentially resulting in tyre deflation, loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

When replacement tyres are required, consult your authorised Triumph dealer who will arrange for the tyres to be fitted according to the tyre manufacturer’s instructions.When tyres are replaced, allow time for the tyre to seat itself to the rim (approximately 24 hours). During this seating period, ride cautiously as an incorrectly seated tyre could cause loss of motorcycle control or an accident. Initially, the new tyre will not produce the same handling characteristics as the worn tyre and the rider must allow adequate riding distance (approximately 100 miles/160 km) to become accustomed to the new handling characteristics.After both 24 hours and 100 miles (160 km), the tyre pressures should be checked and adjusted and the tyre examined for correct seating and rectified as necessary.Use of a motorcycle when not accustomed to its handling characteristics, with incorrect tyre pressures or an incorrectly seated tyre is dangerous and may lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
