Triumph recommends the fully synthetic 10W/40 motorcycle engine oil for most conditions. The oil viscosity may need to be changed to accommodate the ambient temperatures in your riding area.
Refer to the chart below for the correct oil viscosity (10W/40 or 10W/50) to be used in your riding area.
Oil viscosity temperature range
Caution!
- Triumph high performance fuel injected engines are designed to use semi or fully synthetic motorcycle engine oil which meets specification API SH (or higher) and JASO MA.
- Do not add any chemical additives to the engine oil. The engine oil also lubricates the clutch and any additives could cause the clutch to slip.
- Do not use mineral, vegetable, non-detergent oil, castor based oils or any oil not conforming to the required specification. The use of these oils may cause instant, severe engine damage.
- Ensure no foreign matter enters the crankcase during an oil change or top up.
