Foreword - Safety First
Maintenance/Equipment
Warning
Consult your authorised Triumph dealer
whenever there is doubt as to the correct
or safe operation of this Triumph
motorcycle.
Remember that continued operation of an
incorrectly performing motorcycle may
aggravate a fault and may also
compromise safety.
Warning
Use of a motorcycle with bank angle
indicators worn beyond the maximum
limit (when 10 mm or more of the
radiused tip of either front footrest is worn
away) will allow the motorcycle to be
banked to an unsafe angle.
Never change the setting of the brake
pedal adjustment pushrod as this may
adversely affect the bank angle at which
the bank angle indicators contact the
ground.
Banking to an unsafe angle may cause
instability, loss of control and an accident
causing injury or death.
Warning
Ensure all equipment that is required by
law is installed and functioning correctly.
The removal or alteration of the
motorcycle’s lights, silencers, emission or
noise control systems can violate the law.
Incorrect or improper modification may
adversely affect the handling, stability or
other aspect of the motorcycle operation,
which may result in an accident causing
injury or death.
Warning
If the motorcycle is involved in an accident,
collision or fall, it must be taken to an
authorised Triumph dealer for inspection
and repair. Any accident can cause
damage to the motorcycle that, if not
correctly repaired, may cause a second
accident that may result in injury or death.
