How to Ride the Motorcycle
Considerations for High
Speed Operation
General
Ensure the motorcycle has been
maintained according to the
scheduled maintenance chart.
Steering
Check that the handlebar turns
smoothly without excessive free play
or tight spots. Ensure that the
control cables do not restrict the
steering in any way.
Luggage
Make certain that any luggage
containers are closed, locked and
securely fitted to the motorcycle.
Warning
This Triumph motorcycle should be
operated within the legal speed
limits for the particular road
travelled. Operating a motorcycle
at high speeds can be potentially
dangerous since the time available
to react to given traffic situations
is greatly reduced as road speed
increases. Always reduce speed in
consideration of weather and
traffic conditions.
Warning
Only operate this Triumph
motorcycle at high speed in
closed-course on-road competition
or on closed course racetracks.
High-speed operation should only
then be attempted by riders who
have been instructed in the
techniques necessary for high
speed riding and are familiar with
the motorcycle's characteristics in
all conditions.
High-speed operation in any other
circumstances is dangerous and
will lead to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
The handling characteristics of a
motorcycle at high speed may vary
from those you are familiar with at
legal road speeds. Do not attempt
high-speed operation unless you
have received sufficient training
and have the required skills as a
serious accident may result from
incorrect operation.
Warning
The items listed are extremely
important and must never be
neglected. A problem, which may
not be noticed at normal operating
speeds, may be greatly
exaggerated at high speeds.
