Triumph Tiger 800 XRx Maintenance Schedule

This is the maintenance schedule with associated service intervals for the Triumph Tiger 800 XRx motorcycles.

It’s very similar to those for other motorcycles with similar engines in the Triumph Tiger 800 series, like the Triumph 800 XR. The XRx is the same as the XR, after all, but with a smaller “x” that brings with it riding modes, a full-colour TFT display, and new switch-gear.

This maintenance schedule applies to the following model:

2018 Triumph Tiger 800 XRx
2019 Triumph Tiger 800 XRx

After 2019, Triumph released the Tiger 900 series (in 2020).

What you need to service the Triumph Tiger 800

Oil	Triumph recommends 10W/40 or 10W/50 semi or fully synthetic motorcycle engine oil that meets specification API SH (or higher) and JASO MA, such as Castrol Power 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 (fully synthetic) engine oil, sold as Castrol Power RS Racing 4T 10W-40 (fully synthetic) in some countries.
Oil filter	Replace the oil filter every time you change the oil. Use Triumph part number T1218001. You can also use K&N’s KN-204-1.
Brake fluid	Triumph motorcycles need DOT 4 brake fluid (they have a clutch cable, so you don’t need fluid for the clutch).
Coolant	Triumph uses Hybrid Organic Acid Technology coolant with a 50% ethylene glycol mix. Zerex G05 is a HOAT coolant that meets this spec.
Front brake pads	Standard brake pads code is T2021330 (LH) and T2021340 (RH). The equivalent part number for EBC brakes is FA181HH.
Rear brake pads	Use original part number T2025016. The equivalent part number for EBC brakes is FA140HH.
Spark plugs	NGK code CR9EK. Note they’re sold individually. Make sure they’re gapped to 0.9mm with an appropriate spark plug gap tool.
Air filter	The part number for the air filter is T2200557. You can also use K&N part TB-8011, which are generally more available and cheaper.
