ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System)
Warning light
When the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, it is
normal that the ABS warning
light will flash on and off. The light will
continue to flash after engine start-up
until the motorcycle first reaches a
speed exceeding 6 mph (10 km/h) when
it will go off.
Note:
• Cruise control and traction control
will not function if there is a
malfunction with the ABS system.
The warning lights for the ABS,
traction control and the MIL will be
illuminated.
The warning light should not illuminate
again until the engine is restarted
unless there is a fault, or:
• OFF ROAD Mode is selected – the
warning light will flash slowly (see
page 45).
•RIDER Mode is selected with ABS set
to Off Road – the warning light will
flash slowly (see page 45).
•RIDER Mode is selected with ABS set
to Off – the warning light will remain
illuminated (see page 45).
If the warning light becomes illuminated
at any other time while riding it indicates
that the ABS has a malfunction that
requires investigation.
See also Braking on page 95.
Alarm/Immobiliser Indicator Light
This Triumph model is fitted
with an engine immobiliser
which is activated when the
ignition switch is turned to the
OFF position. If the motorcycle is fitted
with a Genuine Triumph Accessory
alarm, the immobiliser will operate as
normal but the alarm/immobiliser light
will operate as described below.
With Alarm Fitted
The alarm/immobiliser light will only
illuminate when the conditions described
in the Genuine Triumph Accessory alarm
instructions are met.
Without Alarm Fitted
When the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, the alarm/immobiliser
light will flash on and off for 24 hours to
show that the engine immobiliser is on.
When the ignition switch is turned to
the ON position the immobiliser and the
indicator light will be off.
If the ABS is not functioning, the brake
system will continue to function as a
non-ABS braking system. Do not
continue to ride for longer than is
necessary with the warning light
illuminated. Contact an authorised
Triumph dealer as soon as possible to
have the fault checked and rectified.
In this situation braking too hard will
cause the wheels to lock resulting in
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
