Model: Triumph T120
Part: Engine oil

To change the oil in a Triumph T120 motorcycle, make sure the bike is positioned on a stable and flat surface. It is helpful to let the engine warm up for a few minutes, so the old oil becomes more fluid and flows better. Turn off the engine and locate the oil drain plug, located under the engine block. Place a suitable container to collect the used oil, then carefully unscrew the plug, allowing the oil to completely drain from the engine. Once finished, clean the plug and drain point well to remove any residue. Tighten the drain plug securely and proceed to fill the engine with new oil of the specific type recommended by Triumph. Check the level with the dipstick or gauge, making sure it is within the indicated range. Start the engine for a few seconds, then turn it off and recheck the level, adjusting if necessary.
