Throttle Control
Warning
Always be alert for changes in the
'feel' of the throttle control and have
the throttle system checked by an
authorized Triumph dealer if any
changes are detected.
Changes can be due to wear in the
mechanism, which could lead to a
sticking throttle control.
A sticking or stuck throttle control will
lead to loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
The motorcycle has an electronic
throttle twist grip to open and close the
throttles. There are no direct-acting
cables in the system and no
adjustments can be made.
Check that the throttle opens smoothly,
without undue force and that it closes
without sticking.
If there is a malfunction with the
throttle control the Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL) becomes
illuminated and one of the following
engine conditions may occur:
▼ MIL illuminated, restricted engine
RPM and throttle movement
▼ MIL illuminated, limp-home mode with
the engine at a fast idle condition
only
▼ MIL illuminated, engine will not start.
For all of the conditions mentioned
contact an authorized Triumph dealer as
soon as possible to have the fault
checked and rectified.
Cruise Control
Warning
Cruise control must only be used
where you can ride safely at a steady
speed.
Cruise control should not be used
when riding in heavy traffic, on roads
with sharp/blind bends or when they
are slippery.
Using cruise control in heavy traffic,
on roads with sharp/blind bends or
when they are slippery, may result in
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Warning
This Triumph motorcycle should be
operated within the legal speed limits
for the particular road traveled.
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 potentially
hazardous driving conditions such as
bad weather or heavy traffic.
