Oil Change on a Triumph Tiger 1200 XC

Model: Triumph Tiger 1200 Xc
Part: Checks and maintenance

This video is currently unavailable

Start the engine for a few minutes to make the lubricant less viscous before draining. For this motorcycle model, it is recommended to use synthetic oil 10W-40. The bolt that serves as the drain plug is located underneath the bike, centrally positioned and slightly hidden within the splash guard, but easily accessible through its opening.

Unscrew it and let the used oil drain into a container (dispose of it properly). Tighten the drain screw and refill the same amount of lubricant through the fill hole, as shown in the video.
