Tyre Inflation Pressures
Warning
Incorrect tyre inflation will cause
abnormal tread wear and instability
problems that may lead to loss of
control and an accident.
Under inflation may result in the tyre
slipping on, or coming off the rim.
Overinflation will cause instability and
accelerated tread wear.
Both conditions are dangerous as they
may cause loss of control leading to
an accident.
Correct inflation pressure 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 the Specification section
for details of the correct inflation
pressures.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) (if fitted)
Caution
An adhesive label is fitted to the wheel
rim to indicate the position of the tyre
pressure sensor.
Care must be taken when replacing
the tyres to prevent any damage to
the tyre pressure sensors.
Always have your tyres fitted by your
authorised Triumph dealer and inform
them that tyre pressure sensors are
fitted to the wheels.
Caution
Do not use anti puncture fluid or any
other item likely to obstruct air flow
to the TPMS sensor’s orifices. Any
blockage to the air pressure orifice of
the TPMS sensor during operation will
cause the sensor to become blocked,
causing irreparable damage to the
TPMS sensor assembly.
Damage caused by the use of
anti puncture fluid or incorrect
maintenance is not considered a
manufacturing defect and will not be
covered under warranty.
Always have your tyres fitted by your
authorised Triumph dealer and inform
them that tyre pressure sensors are
fitted to the wheels.
The tyre pressures shown on your
instruments indicate the actual tyre
pressure at the time of selecting
the display. This may differ from the
inflation pressure set when the tyres
are cold because tyres become warmer
during riding, causing the air in the tyre
to expand and increase the inflation
pressure. The cold inflation pressures
specified by Triumph take account of
this.
Only adjust tyre pressures when
the tyres are cold using an accurate
pressure gauge. Do not use the tyre
pressure display on the instruments.
