This manual is designed primarily for use by trained
technicians in a properly equipped workshop. However, it
contains enough detail and basic information to make it
useful to the owner who desires to perform his own basic
maintenance and repair work. The work can only be
carried out if the owner has the necessa ry hand and
special service tools to complete the job.
A basic knowledge of mechanics, including the proper use
of tools and workshop procedures is necessa ry in order to
carry out maintenance and repair work satisfactorily.
Whenever the owner has insufficient experience or doubts
his ability to do the work, an authorised Triumph dealer
must undertake all adjustments, maintenance, and repair
work.
In order to perform the work efficiently and to avoid costly
mistakes, read the text and thoroughly familiarise yourself
with procedures before starting work.
All work should be performed with great care and in a
clean working area with adequate lighting.
Always use the correct special service tools or equipment
specified. Under no circumstances use makeshift tools or
equipment since the use of substitutes may adversely
affect safe operation.
Where accurate measurements are required, they can
only be made using calibrated, precision instruments.
For the duration of the warranty period, an authorised
Triumph dealer must perform all repairs and scheduled
maintenance.
To maximise the life of your Motorcycle:
• Accurately follow the maintenance
requirements of the periodic maintenance
chart in the service manual.
• Do not allow problems to develop.
Investigate unusual noises and changes in the
riding characteristics of the motorcy cl e.
Rectify all problems as soon as possible
(i mmediately if safety related).
• Use only genuine Triumph parts as listed in
the parts catalogue/parts microfiche.
• Follow the procedures in this manual
carefully and completely. Do not take short
cuts.
• Keep complete records of all maintenance
and repairs with dates and any new parts
installed.
• Use only approved lub ri cants, as specified in
the owner's handbook, in the maintenance of
the motorcycle.
To assist in the use of this manual, the section title is given
at the top.
Each major section starts with a contents page, listing the
information contained in the section.
The individual steps comprising repair operations are to
be followed in the sequence in which they appear.
Adjustment and repair operations include reference to
service tool numbers and the associated illustration depicts
the tool.
Where usage is not obvious, the tool is shown in use.
Adjustment and repair operations also in cl ude reference
to wear limits, relevant data, torque figures, specialist
information and useful assembly details.

Tampering with Noise Control
system Prohibited
Owners are warned that the law may prohibit:
Edges
Watch for sharp edges,
disassembly and assembly.
industrial quality gloves.
especially during engine
Protect the hands with
a) The removal or rendering inoperative by any
person other than for purposes of maintenance,
repair or replacement, of any device or element of
design incorporated into any new vehicle for the
purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery
to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use; and
b) the use of the vehicle after such device or element
ofdesign has been removed or rendered
inoperative by any person.
References to the left-hand or right-hand side given in this
manual are made when viewing the motorcycle from the
rear.
Operations covered in this manual do not always include
reference to testing the motorcycle after repair. It is
essential that work is inspected and tested after
completion and if necessary a road test of the motorcycle
is carried out particularly where safety related items are
concerned.
The dimensions quoted are to design engineering
specification with service limits where applicable.
During the period of running-in from new, certain
adjustments may vary from the specification figures given
in this manual. These will be reset by the dealer at the
500 mile/800 km service, and thereafter should be
maintained at the figures specified in this manual.
Repairs and Replacements
Before removal and disassembly, thoroughly clean the
motorcycle. Any dirt entering the engine or other parts
will work as an abrasive and shorten the life of the
motorcycle. Particular attention should be paid when
installing a new part, that any dust or metal filings are
cleared from the immediate area.
Force
Common sense should dictate how much force is
necessary in assembly and disassembly. If a part seems
especially difficult to remove or install, stop and examine
what may be causing the problem. Never lever a
component as this will cause damage both to the
component itself and to the surface being levered against.
Whenever tapping to aid removal of an item is necessary,
tap lightly using a hide or plastic faced mallet.
When replacement parts are required, it is essential that
only genuine Triumph parts are used.
Safety features and corrosion prevention treatments
embodied in the motorcycle may be impaired if other
than genuine Triumph parts are fitted. In certain territories,
legislation prohibits the fitting of parts not to the
manufacturer's specification.
Tightening Procedures
Generally, when installing a part with several bolts, nuts or
screws, they should all be started in their holes and
tightened to a snug fit, evenly and in a cross pattern. This
is to avoid distortion of the part and/or causing gas or oil
leakage. Conversely, bolts, nuts, or screws, should all be
loosened (in sequence if specified) by about a quarter of a
turn and then removed.
Where there is a tightening sequence specified in this
Service Manual, the bolts, nuts, or screws must be
tightened in the order and by the method indicated.
Torque wrench setting figures given in this Manual must
be observed. The torque tools used must be of accurate
calibration.
Locking devices, where specified, must be fitted. If the
efficiency of a locking device is impaired during removal it
must be renewed. This applies particularly to micro-
encapsulated fixings which must always be replaced if
disturbed. Where necessary, the text in this manual will
indicate where such a fixing is used.
