FOREWORD - SAFETY FIRST

The Motorcycle Fuel and Exhaust Fumes

This motorcycle is designed for on-road use only. It is not suitable for off-road use.

Off-road operation could lead to loss of control of the motorcycle resulting in an accident causing injury or loss of life.

This motorcycle is not designed to tow a trailer or be fitted with a sidecar. Fitting a sidecar and/or a trailer may result in loss of control and an accident.

This motorcycle is designed for use as a two-wheeled vehicle capable of carrying a

rider on his/her own, or a rider and one passenger (subject to a passenger seat being fitted).

The total weight of the rider, and any passenger, accessories and luggage must not exceed the maximum load limit of 19 5 k g .

PETROL IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE:

Always turn off the engine when refuelling.

Do not refuel or open the fuel filler cap while smoking or in the vicinity of any open (naked) flame.

Take care not to spill any petrol on the engine, exhaust pipes or silencers when refuelling.

If petrol is swallowed, inhaled or allowed to get into the eyes, seek immediate medical attention.

Spillage on the skin should be immediately washed off with soap and water and clothing contaminated with petrol should immediately be removed.

Burns and other serious skin conditions may result from contact with petrol.

Never start your engine or let it run for any length of time in a closed area. The exhaust fumes are poisonous and may cause loss of consciousness and death within a short time. Always operate your motorcycle in the open-air or in an area with adequate ventilation.

Foreword - Safety First

Warning

Riding

Never ride the motorcycle when fatigued or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.

Riding when under the influence of alcohol or other drugs is illegal.

Riding when fatigued or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs reduces the rider's ability to maintain control of the motorcycle and may lead to loss of control and an accident.

All riders must be licensed to operate the motorcycle. Operation of the motorcycle without a licence is illegal and could lead to prosecution.

Operation of the motorcycle without formal training in the correct riding techniques that are necessary to become

licenced is dangerous and may lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Always ride defensively and wear the protective equipment mentioned elsewhere in this foreword. Remember, in an accident, a motorcycle does not give the same impact protection as a car.

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 potentially hazardous driving conditions such as bad weather or heavy traffic.

Continually observe and react to changes in road surface, traffic and wind conditions. All two-wheeled vehicles are subject to external forces which may cause an accident. These forces include but are not limited to:

• Wind draft from passing vehicles;

• Potholes, uneven or damaged road surfaces;

• Bad weather;

•Rider error.

Always operate the motorcycle at moderate speed and away from heavy traffic until you have become thoroughly familiar with its handling and operating characteristics. Never exceed the legal speed limit.

Foreword - Safety First

Warning

Helmet and Clothing Handlebars and Footrests

When riding the motorcycle, both rider and passenger must always wear a motorcycle helmet, boots, eye protection, gloves, trousers (close fitting around the knee and ankle) and a brightly coloured jacket. Brightly coloured clothing will considerably increase a rider's (or passenger's) visibility to other operators of road vehicles. Although full protection is not possible, wearing correct protective clothing can reduce the risk of injury when riding.

A helmet is one of the most important pieces of riding gear as it offers protection against head injuries. You and your passenger's helmet should be carefully chosen and should fit you or your

passenger's head comfortably and securely. A brightly coloured helmet will increase a rider's (or passenger's) visibility to other operators of road vehicles.

An open face helmet offers some protection in an accident though a full face helmet will offer more.

Always wear a visor or approved goggles to help vision and to protect your eyes.

The rider must maintain control of the vehicle by keeping hands on the handlebars at all times.

The handling and stability of a motorcycle will be adversely affected if the rider removes his hands from the handlebars, resulting in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

The rider and passenger must always use the footrests provided, during operation of the vehicle.

By using the footrests, both rider and passenger will reduce the risk of inadvertent contact with any motorcycle components and will also reduce the risk of injury from entrapment of clothing.

Warning

Parking Parts and Accessories

Always turn off the engine and remove the ignition key before leaving the motorcycle unattended. By removing the key, the risk of use of the motorcycle by unauthorised or untrained persons is reduced.

When parking the motorcycle, always remember the following:

Engage first gear to help prevent the motorcycle from rolling off the stand.

The engine and exhaust system will be hot after riding. DO NOT park where pedestrians, animals and/or children are likely to touch the motorcycle.

Do not park on soft ground or on a steeply inclined surface. Parking under these conditions may cause the motorcycle to fall over.

For further details, please refer to the 'How to Ride the Motorcycle' section of this owner's handbook.

Owners should be aware that the only approved parts, accessories and conversions for any Triumph motorcycle are those which carry official Triumph approval and are fitted to the motorcycle by an authorised dealer.

In particular, it is extremely hazardous to fit or replace parts or accessories whose fitting requires the dismantling of, or addition to, either the electrical or fuel systems and any such modification could cause a safety hazard.

The fitting of any non-approved parts, accessories or conversions may adversely affect the handling, stability or other aspect of the motorcycle’s operation that may result in an accident causing injury or death.

Triumph does not accept any liability whatsoever for defects caused by the fitting of non-approved parts, accessories or conversions or the fitting of any approved parts, accessories or conversions by non-approved personnel.

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.

Foreword - Safety First

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’s operation, which may result in an accident causing injury or death.

Use of a motorcycle with bank angle indicators worn beyond the maximum limit when 15 mm of the bank indicator remains (Street Triple) or when 5 mm of the bank indicator remains (Daytona 675, Daytona 675 R and Street Triple R) will allow the motorcycle to be banked to an unsafe angle.

Banking to an unsafe angle may cause

instability, loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

1. Bank angle indicator

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.

ABS Circuit mode

Daytona 675 with ABS and Daytona 675 R

ABS circuit mode is designed for closed circuit use only in dry conditions. ABS circuit mode must not be activated on public roads, as incorrect operation may result in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

The Daytona 675 and Daytona 675 R models are equipped with an ABS circuit mode.

When activated, circuit mode will allow the rear wheel to rotate at a slower speed than the front wheel before triggering the ABS operation, whilst still preventing the rear wheel from locking.

An increased level of rear wheel drift is allowed whilst braking when compared to the standard ABS mode.

Even under severe braking, high tyre grip levels can mean that the front wheel does not have a tendency to lock up until high levels of deceleration have been reached. Furthermore, ABS cannot be relied on in all circumstances to prevent the rear wheel from lifting off the ground, therefore under these circumstances, it may be possible for the rear wheel to lift off the ground. This can result in loss of motorcycle control and an accident and consequently over aggressive braking must be avoided.

ABS Disable

Models with ABS

It is possible to temporarily disable the ABS system. The ABS system cannot be permanently disabled, it will be automatically enabled when the ignition is turned off and then on again.

If the ABS is disabled, the brake system will function as a non-ABS braking system. In this situation braking too hard will cause the wheels to lock, and may result in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

To Disable the ABS

To access the ABS Disable function, turn the ignition to the ON position.

Press and release button 'A' until set up is visible in the display screen then press button 'B'.

Press and release button 'A' until ABS is

visible.

Pressing button 'B' will disable the ABS system; the message ABS OFF will be displayed for 2 seconds, and the ABS warning light will be illuminated.

To Enable the ABS

To enable the ABS system again, turn the ignition off and on.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - If Fitted

The daily check of tyre pressures must not be excluded because of the fitment of the TPMS. Check the tyre pressure when the tyres are cold and using an accurate tyre pressure gauge (see page 121 ).

Use of the TPMS system to set inflation pressures may lead to incorrect tyre pressures leading to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Function

Tyre pressure sensors are fitted to the front and rear wheels. These sensors measure the air pressure inside the tyre and transmit pressure data to the instruments. These sensors will not transmit the data until the motorcycle is travelling at a speed greater than 12 mph (20 km/h). Two dashes will be visible in the display area until the tyre pressure signal is received.

An adhesive label will be fitted to the wheel rim to indicate the position of the tyre pressure sensor, which is near the valve.

For motorcycles without the tyre pressure monitoring system fitted: The

tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is an accessory fitted item and must be fitted by your authorised Triumph dealer. The TPMS display on the instruments will only be activated when the system has been fitted.

TPMS Symbol

With the ignition switch turned to the ON position, if the TPMS symbol flashes for 10 seconds and then remains on there is a fault with the TPMS system. Contact your authorised Triumph dealer to have the fault rectified.

Tyre Pressures

The tyre pressures shown on your instrument panel indicate the actual tyre pressure at the time of selecting the display. This may differ from the inflation pressure set when the tyres are cold because tyres become warmer during riding, causing the air in the tyre to expand and the inflation pressure to increase. The cold inflation pressures specified by Triumph take account of this.

Owners must only adjust tyre pressures when the tyres are cold using an accurate tyre pressure gauge (see page 121 ), and must not use the tyre pressure display on the

F R

instruments.

The tyre pressure monitoring system is not to be used as a tyre pressure gauge when adjusting the tyre pressures. For correct tyre pressures, always check the tyre pressures when the tyres are cold and using an accurate tyre pressure gauge (see page 121 ).

Use of the TPMS system to set inflation pressures may lead to incorrect tyre pressures leading to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System) Indicator 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.

Unless the ABS system is disabled (see page 32), or there is a fault, it should not illuminate again until the engine is restarted.

If the indicator light becomes illuminated at any other time while riding it indicates that the ABS has a malfunction that requires investigation.

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 indicator 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 control and an accident.

Note:

• ABS will not function if there is a malfunction with the ABS system and the ABS warning light is illuminated.

Tyre Pressure Warning Light

The tyre pressure warning light works in conjunction with the tyre pressure monitoring system (see page 45).

The warning light will only illuminate when the front or rear tyre pressure is below the recommended pressure. It will not illuminate if the tyre is over inflated.

The tyre pressure at which the warning light illuminates is temperature compensated to 20°C but the numeric pressure display associated with it is not (see page 45). Even if the numeric display seems at or close to the standard tyre pressure when the warning light is on, a low tyre pressure is indicated and a puncture is the most likely cause.

Stop the motorcycle if the tyre pressure warning light illuminates. Do not ride the motorcycle until the tyres have been checked and the tyre pressures are at their recommended pressure when cold.

Ignition Key

1. Ke y n u m b e r t a g

In addition to operating the steering lock/ignition switch, the ignition key is required to operate the seat lock and fuel tank cap.

When the motorcycle is delivered from the factory, two ignition keys are supplied together with a small tag bearing the key number. Make a note of the key number and store the spare key and key number tag in a safe place away from the motorcycle.

A transponder is fitted within the key to turn off the engine immobiliser. To ensure the immobiliser functions correctly, always have only one of the ignition keys near the ignition switch. Having two ignition keys near the switch may interrupt the enable signal between the transponder and the engine immobiliser. In this situation the engine immobiliser will remain on until one of the ignition keys is removed.

Fuel Requirement/Refuelling

Fuel Grade

Your Triumph engine is designed to use unleaded fuel and will give optimum performance if the correct grade of fuel is used.

• Street Triple and Street Triple R models can use unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 91 RON or higher.

• Daytona 675 and 675 R models require unleaded fuel with a MINIMUM octane rating of 95 RON.

The exhaust system is fitted with a catalytic converter to help reduce exhaust emission levels. The catalytic converter can be permanently damaged if the motorcycle is allowed to run out of fuel or if the fuel level is allowed to get very low. Always ensure you have adequate fuel for your journey.

The use of leaded fuel is illegal in most countries, states or territories. Use of leaded fuel will damage the catalytic converter.

refuelling, always observe the following fuel safety instructions:

Petrol (fuel) is highly flammable and can be explosive under certain conditions. When refuelling, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.

Do not smoke.

Do not use a mobile telephone.

Make sure the refuelling area is well ventilated and free from any source of flame or sparks. This includes any appliance with a pilot light.

Never fill the tank until the fuel level rises into the filler neck. Heat from sunlight or other sources may cause the fuel to expand and overflow creating a fire hazard.

After refuelling always check that the fuel filler cap is correctly closed and locked.

Because petrol (fuel) is highly flammable,

any fuel leak or spillage, or any failure to observe the safety advice given above will lead to a fire hazard, which could cause damage to property, injury to persons or death.

Overfilling the tank can lead to fuel spillage.

If fuel is spilled, thoroughly clean up the spillage immediately and dispose of the materials used safely.

Take care not to spill any fuel on the engine, exhaust pipes, tyres or any other part of the motorcycle.

Because fuel is highly flammable, any fuel leak or spillage, or any failure to observe the safety advice given above may lead to a fire hazard, which could cause damage to property and injury or death to persons.

Fuel spilled near to, or onto the tyres will reduce the tyre's ability to grip the road. This will result in a dangerous riding condition potentially causing loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

After refuelling always check that the fuel filler cap is correctly closed and locked.

Running-In

Running-in is the name given to the process that occurs during the first hours of a new vehicle's operation.

In particular, internal friction in the engine will be higher when components are new. Later on, when continued operation of the engine has ensured that the components have 'bedded in', this internal friction will be greatly reduced.

A period of careful running-in will ensure lower exhaust emissions, and will optimise performance, fuel economy and longevity of the engine and other motorcycle components.

During the first 500 miles (800 kilometres):

• Do not use full throttle.

• Avoid high engine speeds at all times.

• Avoid riding at one constant engine speed, whether fast or slow, for a long period of time.

• Avoid aggressive starts, stops, and rapid accelerations, except in an emergency.

• Do not ride at speeds greater than 3/4 of maximum engine speed.

Page 61

General Information

Warning

From 500 to 1,000 miles (800 to 1,500 kilometres):

• Engine speed can gradually be increased to the rev limit for short periods.

Both during and after running-in has been completed:

• Do not over-rev the engine when cold.

• Do not let the engine labour. Always downshift before the engine begins to 'struggle'.

• Do not ride with engine speeds unnecessarily high. Changing up a gear helps reduce fuel consumption, reduces noise and helps to protect the environment.

Safe Operation

Daily Safety Checks

Check the following items each day before you ride. The time required is minimal, and these checks will help ensure a safe, reliable ride.

If any irregularities are found during these checks, refer to the Maintenance and Adjustment section or see your authorised Triumph dealer for the action required to return the motorcycle to a safe operating condition.

Failure to perform these checks every day before you ride may result in serious motorcycle damage or an accident causing serious injury or death.

Page 62

To Stop the Engine

1. Engine stop switch

2. Starter button

3. Neutral indicator light

4. ON position

5. Ignition switch

Close the throttle completely.

Select neutral.

Turn the ignition switch off.

Select first gear.

Support the motorcycle on a firm, level surface with the side stand.

Lock the steering.

The engine should normally be stopped by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position. The engine stop switch is for emergency use only. Do not leave the ignition switched on with the engine stopped. Electrical damage may result.

To Start the Engine

Check that the engine stop switch is in the RUN position.

Ensure the transmission is in neutral.

Turn the ignition switch on.

Note:

• When the ignition is switched on, the tachometer needle will quickly sweep from zero to maximum and then return to zero. The instrument warning lights will illuminate and will then go off (except those which normally remain on until the engine starts - see 'Warning Lights' on page 46). It is not necessary to wait for the needle to return to zero before starting the engine.

Pull the clutch lever fully into the handlebar.

Warning

Caution

Leaving the throttle fully closed, push the starter button until the engine starts.

Never start the engine or run the engine in a confined area. Exhaust fumes are poisonous and can cause loss of consciousness and death within a short period of time. Always operate your motorcycle in the open-air or in an area with adequate ventilation.

Do not operate the starter continuously for more than 5 seconds as the starter motor will overheat and the battery will become discharged. Wait 15 seconds between each operation of the starter to allow for cooling and recovery of battery power.

Do not let the engine idle for long periods as this may lead to overheating which will

cause damage to the engine.

How to Ride the Motorcycle

The low oil pressure warning light should go out shortly after the engine starts.

If the low oil pressure warning light stays on after starting the engine, stop the engine immediately and investigate the cause. Running the engine with low oil pressure will cause severe engine damage.

• The motorcycle is equipped with starter lockout switches. The switches prevent the electric starter from operating when the transmission is not in neutral with the side stand down.

• If the side stand is extended whilst the engine is running, and the transmission is not in neutral then the engine will stop regardless of clutch position.

Moving Off

Pull in the clutch lever and select first gear. Open the throttle a little and let out the clutch lever slowly. As the clutch starts to engage, open the throttle a little more, allowing enough engine speed to avoid stalling.

Warning

Changing Gears

1. Gear-change pedal (Street Triple shown)

Take care to avoid opening the throttle too

far or too fast in any of the lower gears as this can lead to the front wheel lifting from the ground (pulling a 'wheelie') and to the rear tyre breaking traction (wheel spin).

Always open the throttle cautiously, particularly if you are unfamiliar with the motorcycle, as a 'wheelie' or loss of traction will cause loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Close the throttle while pulling in the clutch lever. Change into the next higher or lower gear. Open the throttle part way, while releasing the clutch lever. Always use the clutch when changing gear.

Note:

• The gear change mechanism is the 'positive stop' type. This means that, for each movement of the gear change pedal, you can only select each gear, one after the other, in ascending or descending order.

Do not change to a lower gear at speeds that will cause excessive engine rpm (r/min). This can lock the rear wheel causing loss of control and an accident. Engine damage may also be caused. Changing down should be done such that low engine speeds will be ensured.

Daytona 675 R Quickshifter (if fitted)

The Daytona 675 R is fitted with a race-style quickshifter which will trigger a momentary engine cut to allow gears to engage, without closure of the throttle or operation of the clutch.

The quickshifter will only operate for up-changes and only then if the engine speed is greater than 2500 rpm. The clutch must be used for all other gear changes including stopping and pulling away.

The quickshifter will not operate if the clutch is applied or if an up-change is attempted by mistake when in 6th gear.

It is necessary to use a "positive" pedal force to ensure a smooth gear change.

Braking

Warning

1. Front brake lever (Street Triple shown)

How to Ride the Motorcycle

1. Rear brake pedal (Street Triple shown)

WHEN BRAKING, OBSERVE THE

Close the throttle completely, leaving the clutch engaged to allow the engine to help slow down the motorcycle.

Change down one gear at a time such that

the transmission is in first gear when the motorcycle comes to a complete stop.

When stopping, always apply both brakes at the same time. Normally the front brake should be applied a little more than the rear.

Change down or fully disengage the clutch as necessary to keep the engine from stalling.

Never lock the brakes, as this may cause loss of control of the motorcycle and an accident.

FOLLOWING:

For emergency braking, disregard down changing, and concentrate on applying the front and rear brakes as hard as possible without skidding. Riders should practice emergency braking in a traffic-free area.

Triumph strongly recommends that all riders take a course of instruction, which includes advice on safe brake operation. Incorrect brake technique could result in loss of control and an accident.

Page 68

How to Ride the Motorcycle

Warning

For your safety, always exercise extreme caution when braking, accelerating or turning as any incautious action can cause loss of control and an accident. Independent use of the front or rear brakes reduces overall braking performance. Extreme braking may cause either wheel to lock, reducing control of the motorcycle and causing an accident.

When possible, reduce speed or brake before entering a turn as closing the throttle or braking in mid-turn may cause wheel slip leading to loss of control and an accident.

When riding in wet or rainy conditions, or on loose surfaces, the ability to manoeuvre and stop will be reduced. All of your actions should be smooth under these conditions. Sudden acceleration, braking or turning may cause loss of control and an accident.

When descending a long, steep gradient, use engine braking by down changing and use the brakes intermittently. Continuous brake application can overheat the brakes and reduce their effectiveness.

Riding with your foot on the brake pedal or your hands on the brake lever may actuate the brake light, giving a false indication to other road users. It may also overheat the brake, reducing braking effectiveness.

Do not coast with the engine switched off, and do not tow the motorcycle. The transmission is pressure-lubricated only when the engine is running. Inadequate lubrication may cause damage or seizure of the transmission, which can lead to sudden loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Page 69

ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System) -

Warning

ABS Models Only

ABS prevents the wheels from locking, therefore maximising the effectiveness of the braking system in emergencies and when riding on slippery surfaces. The potentially shorter braking distances ABS allows under certain conditions are not a substitute for good riding practice.

Always ride within the legal speed limit.

Never ride without due care and attention and always reduce speed in consideration of weather, road and traffic conditions.

Take care when cornering. If the brakes are applied in a corner, ABS will not be able to counteract the weight and momentum of the motorcycle. This can result in loss of control and an accident.

Under some circumstances it is possible that a motorcycle equipped with ABS may require a longer stopping distance than an equivalent motorcycle without ABS.

Warning

ABS Warning Light

on and off (see page 48). If the ABS warning light is constantly illuminated it indicates that the ABS function is not available because:

• the ABS has been disabled by the rider (see page 32);

• the ABS has a malfunction that requires investigation.

If the indicator light becomes illuminated while riding, it indicates that the ABS has a malfunction that requires investigation.

Note:

• Normally, the rider will perceive ABS operation as a harder feel or a pulsation of the brake lever and pedal. As the ABS is not an integrated braking system and it does not control both the front and rear brake at the same time, this pulsation may be felt in the lever,

the pedal or both.

• The ABS may be activated by sudden upward or downward changes in the road surface.

When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, it is normal for the ABS warning light to flash

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 indicator 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 control and an accident.

The ABS warning light will illuminate when the rear wheel is driven at high speed for more than 30 seconds when the motorcycle is on a stand. This reaction is normal.

When the ignition is switched off and the motorcycle is re-started, the warning light will illuminate until the motorcycle reaches a speed exceeding 19 mph (30 km/h).

The ABS computer operates by comparing the relative speed of the front and rear wheels. Use of non-recommended tyres can affect wheel speed and cause the ABS function not to operate, potentially leading to loss of control and an accident in conditions where the ABS would normally function.

Warning

Parking

Select neutral and turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.

Lock the steering to help prevent theft.

Always park on a firm, level surface to prevent the motorcycle from falling.

When parking on a hill, always park facing uphill to prevent the motorcycle from rolling off the stand. Engage first gear to prevent the

motorcycle from moving.

On a lateral (sideways) incline, always park such that the incline naturally pushes the motorcycle towards the sidestand.

Do not park on a lateral (sideways) incline of greater than 6° and never park facing downhill.

Note:

• When parking near traffic at night, or when parking in a location where parking lights are required by law, leave the tail, licence plate and position lights on by turning the ignition switch to P (PARK).

Do not leave the switch in the P position for long periods of time as this will discharge the battery.

Do not park on a soft or on a steeply inclined surface. Parking under these conditions may cause the motorcycle to fall over causing damage to property and personal injury.

Petrol is extremely flammable and can be explosive under certain conditions. If parking inside a garage or other structure, be sure it is well ventilated and the motorcycle is not close to any source of flame or sparks. This includes any appliance with a pilot light.

Failure to follow the above advice may cause a fire resulting in damage to property or personal injury.

The engine and exhaust system will be hot after riding. DO NOT park where pedestrians and children are likely to touch the motorcycle.

Touching any part of the engine or exhaust system when hot may cause unprotected skin to become burnt.

Warning

Considerations for High-Speed Operation

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.

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.

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.

Page 73

How to Ride the Motorcycle

Caution

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.

Brakes

Check that the front and rear brakes are functioning properly.

Tyre s

High-speed operation is hard on tyres, and tyres that are in good condition are crucial to riding safely. Examine their overall condition, inflate to the correct pressure (when the tyres

are cold), and check the wheel balance. Securely fit the valve caps after checking tyre pressures. Observe the information given in the Maintenance and Specification sections on tyre checking and tyre safety.

Fuel

Have sufficient fuel for the increased fuel consumption that will result from high-speed operation.

Engine Oil

Make certain that the engine oil level is correct. Ensure that the correct grade and type of oil is used when topping up.

Coolant

Check that the coolant level is at the upper level line in the expansion tank. (Always check the level with the engine cold).

Electrical Equipment

Make certain that the headlight, rear/brake light, direction indicators, horn, etc. all work properly.

Miscellaneous

Visually check that all fixings are tight.

ACCESSORIES, LOADING AND PASSENGERS

Warning

The addition of accessories and carriage of additional weight can affect the motorcycle's handling characteristics causing changes in stability and necessitating a reduction in speed. The following information has been prepared as a guide to the potential hazards of adding accessories to a motorcycle and carrying passengers and additional loads.

Incorrect loading may result in an unsafe riding condition leading to an accident.

Always ensure any loads carried are evenly distributed on both sides of the motorcycle. Ensure that the load is correctly secured such that it will not move around while the motorcycle is in motion.

Always check the load security regularly (though not while the motorcycle is in motion) and ensure that the load does not extend beyond the rear of the motorcycle.

Never exceed the maximum vehicle

loading weight of 195 kg.

This maximum loading weight is made up from the combined weight of the rider, passenger, any accessories fitted and any load carried.

Accessories, Loading and Passengers

Do not install accessories or carry luggage that impairs the control of the motorcycle. Make sure that you have not adversely affected the visibility of any lighting component, road clearance, banking capability (i.e. lean angle), control operation, wheel travel, front fork movement, visibility in any direction, or any other aspect of the motorcycle's operation.

This motorcycle must not be operated above the legal road speed limit except in authorised closed-course conditions.

High-speed operation in any other circumstances is dangerous and will lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Page 76

Accessories, Loading and Passengers

Warning

Your passenger should be instructed that he or she can cause loss of motorcycle control by making sudden movements or by adopting an incorrect seated position.

The rider should instruct the passenger as follows:

• It is important that the passenger sits

• To keep his or her feet on the

• Advise the passenger to lean with the

Do not carry animals on your motorcycle.

passenger footrests and to firmly hold onto the seat strap or the rider's waist or hips.

rider when travelling around corners and not to lean unless the rider does so.

The handling and braking capabilities of a motorcycle will be affected by the presence of a passenger. The rider must make allowances for these changes when operating the motorcycle with a passenger and should not attempt such operation unless trained to do so and without becoming familiar and comfortable with the changes in motorcycle operating characteristics that this brings about.

Motorcycle operation without making allowances for the presence of a passenger could lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Never attempt to store any items between the frame and the fuel tank. This can restrict the steering and will cause loss of control leading to an accident.

Weight attached to the handlebar or front fork will increase the mass of the steering assembly and can result in loss of steering control leading to an accident.

Page 77

Accessories, Loading and Passengers

Warning

Do not carry a passenger unless he or she is tall enough to reach the footrests provided.

A passenger who is not tall enough to reach the footrests will be unable to sit securely on the motorcycle and may cause instability leading to loss of control and an accident.

Never ride an accessory-equipped motorcycle, or a motorcycle carrying a payload of any kind, at speeds above 80 mph (130 km/h). In either/both of these conditions, speeds in excess of 80 mph (130 km/h) should not be attempted even where the legal speed limit permits this.

The presence of accessories and/or payload will cause changes in the stability

and handling of the motorcycle.

Failure to allow for changes in motorcycle stability may lead to loss of control or an accident.

Remember that the 80 mph (130 km/h) absolute limit will be reduced by the fitting of non-approved accessories, incorrect loading, worn tyres, overall motorcycle condition and poor road or weather conditions.

If the pillion seat is used to carry small objects, they must not exceed 5 kg in weight, must not impair control of the motorcycle, must be securely attached and must not extend beyond the rear or sides of the motorcycle.

Carriage of objects in excess of 5 kg in weight, that are insecure, impair control or extend beyond the rear or sides of the motorcycle may lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Even if small objects are correctly loaded onto the pillion seat, the maximum speed of the motorcycle must be reduced to 80 mph (130 km/h).

Scheduled Maintenance

To maintain the motorcycle in a safe and reliable condition, the maintenance and adjustments outlined in this section must be carried out as specified in the schedule of daily checks, and also in line with the scheduled maintenance chart. The information that follows describes the procedures to follow when carrying out the daily checks and some simple maintenance and adjustment items.

All maintenance is vitally important and must not be neglected. Incorrect maintenance or adjustment may cause one or more parts of the motorcycle to malfunction. A malfunctioning motorcycle may lead to loss of control and an accident.

Weather, terrain and geographical location affect maintenance. The maintenance schedule should be adjusted to match the particular environment in which the vehicle is used and the demands of the individual

owner.

Special tools, knowledge and training are required in order to correctly carry out the maintenance items listed in the scheduled maintenance chart. Only an authorised Triumph dealer will have this knowledge and equipment.

Since incorrect or neglected maintenance can lead to a dangerous riding condition, always have an authorised Triumph dealer carry out the scheduled maintenance of this motorcycle.

Scheduled maintenance may be carried out by your dealer in three ways; annual maintenance, mileage based maintenance or a combination of both, depending on the mileage the motorcycle travels each year.

1. Motorcycles travelling less than 6,000 miles per year must be maintained annually. In addition to this, mileage based items require maintenance at their specified intervals, as the motorcycle reaches this mileage.

2. Motorcycles travelling approximately 6,000 miles per year must have the annual maintenance and the specified mileage based items carried out together.

3. Motorcycles travelling more than 6,000 miles per year must have the mileage based items maintained as the motorcycle reaches the specified mileage. In addition to this, annual based items will require maintenance at their specified annual intervals.

In all cases maintenance must be carried out at or before the specified maintenance intervals shown. Consult an authorised Triumph dealer for advice on which maintenance schedule is most suitable for your motorcycle.

Engine Oil

In order for the engine, transmission, and clutch to function correctly, maintain the engine oil at the correct level, and change the oil and oil filter in accordance with scheduled maintenance requirements.

Motorcycle operation with insufficient, deteriorated, or contaminated engine oil will cause accelerated engine wear and may result in engine or transmission seizure. Seizure of the engine or transmission may lead to sudden loss of control and an accident.

Oil Level Inspection

1. Filler

2. Dipstick location in crankcase

3. Dipstick

4. Upper marking

5. Lower marking

Running the engine with insufficient oil will cause engine damage. If the low oil pressure indicator remains on, stop the engine immediately and investigate the cause.

Start the engine and run at idle for approximately five minutes.

Page 87

Maintenance and Adjustment

Warning

chri

Stop the engine, then wait for at least three minutes for the oil to settle.

Remove the dipstick, wipe the blade clean and screw fully home.

Note:

• An accurate indication of the level of oil in the engine is only shown when the engine is at normal operating temperature, the motorcycle is upright (not on the side stand) and when the dipstick has been screwed fully home.

• Do not add oil through the dipstick hole in the crankcase.

Remove the dipstick.

The oil level is indicated by lines on the dipstick. When full, the indicated oil level must be level with the upper marking on the dipstick.

If the oil level is below the lower marking, remove the filler plug and add oil a little at a time through the filler plug hole in the clutch cover until the correct level is reached.

Once the correct level is reached, fit the dipstick and the filler plug.

Oil and Oil Filter Change

1. Oil drain plug (Street Triple shown)

2. Oil filter

The engine oil and filter must be replaced in accordance with scheduled maintenance requirements.

Prolonged or repeated contact with engine oil can lead to skin dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains harmful contamination that can lead to skin cancer. Always wear suitable protective clothing and avoid skin contact with used oil.

Warm up the engine thoroughly, and then stop the engine and secure the motorcycle in an upright position on level ground.

Remove the fairing (Daytona 675 and 675 R only).

Place an oil drain pan beneath the engine.

Remove the oil drain plug.

Page 88

Maintenance and Adjustment

Warning

Caution

The oil may be hot to the touch. Avoid contact with the hot oil by wearing suitable protective clothing, gloves, eye protection, etc. Contact with hot oil may cause the skin to be scalded or burned.

Unscrew and remove the oil filter using Triumph service tool T3880313. Dispose of the old filter in an environmentally friendly way.

Apply a thin smear of clean engine oil to the sealing ring of the new oil filter. Fit the oil filter and tighten to 10 N m .

Refit the oil drain plug and tighten to 25 Nm.

Fill the engine with a 10W/40 or 10W/50 semi or fully synthetic motorcycle engine oil that meets specification API SH (or higher) and JASOMA, such as CastrolPower1 Racing 4T 10W-40 (fully synthetic) engine oil, sold as Castrol Power RS Racing 4T 10W-40 (fully synthetic) in some countries.

Start the engine and allow it to idle for a minimum of 30 seconds.

Raising the engine speed above idle before the oil reaches all parts of the engine can cause engine damage or seizure. Only raise engine speed after running the engine for 30 seconds to allow the oil to circulate fully.

If the engine oil pressure is too low, the low oil pressure warning light will illuminate. If this light stays on when the engine is running, stop the engine immediately and investigate the cause. Running the engine with low oil pressure will cause engine damage.

Ensure that the low oil pressure warning light extinguishes shortly after starting.

Turn off the ignition, check the oil level using the method previously described, and top up to between the minimum and maximum level lines on the dipstick.

Refit the fairing (Daytona 675 and 675 R only).

Page 89

Maintenance and Adjustment

Disposal of Used Engine Oil and Oil Filters

To protect the environment, do not pour oil on the ground, down sewers or drains, or into watercourses. Do not place used oil filters in with general waste. If in doubt, contact your local authority.

Oil Specification and Grade

Triumph's high performance fuel injected engines are designed to use 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.

Do not add any chemical additives to the engine oil. The engine oil also lubricates the clutch and any additives could cause the clutch to slip.

Do not use mineral, vegetable, non-detergent oil, castor based oils or any oil not conforming to the required specification. The use of these oils may cause instant, severe engine damage.

Warning

Cooling System

Note:

• A year-round, Hybrid Organic Acid Technology (known as Hybrid OAT or HOAT) coolant is installed in the cooling system when the motorcycle leaves the factory. It is coloured green, contains a 50% solution of ethylene glycol based anti-freeze, and has a freezing point of -35°C (-31°F).

To ensure efficient engine cooling, check the coolant level each day before riding the motorcycle, and top up the coolant if the level is low.

Corrosion Inhibitors

To protect the cooling system from corrosion, the use of corrosion inhibitor chemicals in the coolant is essential.

If coolant containing a corrosion inhibitor is not used, the cooling system will accumulate rust and scale in the water jacket and radiator. This will block the coolant passages, and considerably reduce the efficiency of the cooling system.

HD4X Hybrid OAT coolant contains corrosion inhibitors and anti-freeze suitable for aluminium engines and radiators. Always use the coolant in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer.

Coolant that contains anti-freeze and corrosion inhibitors contains toxic chemicals that are harmful to the human body. Never swallow anti-freeze or any of the motorcycle coolant.

Note:

• HD4X Hybrid OAT coolant, as supplied by Triumph, is pre-mixed and does not need to be diluted prior to filling or topping up the cooling system.

Coolant Change

Have the coolant changed by an authorised Triumph dealer in accordance with scheduled maintenance requirements.

Radiator and Hoses

Check the radiator hoses for cracks or deterioration, and hose clips for tightness in accordance with scheduled maintenance requirements. Have your authorised Triumph dealer replace any defective items.

Check the radiator grille and fins for obstructions by insects, leaves or mud. Clean off any obstructions with a stream of low-pressure water.

The fan operates automatically when the engine is running. Always keep hands and clothing away from the fan as contact with the rotating fan can cause injury.

Using high-pressure water sprays, such as from a car wash facility or household pressure washer, can damage the radiator fins, cause leaks and impair the radiator's efficiency.

Do not obstruct or deflect airflow through the radiator by installing unauthorised accessories, either in front of the radiator or behind the cooling fan. Interference with the radiator airflow can cause overheating, potentially resulting in engine damage.

Throttle Control

1. Throttle grip

2. Correct setting 2 - 3 mm

The throttle grip controls the throttle valves in the throttle bodies. If the throttle cables are incorrectly adjusted, either too tight or too loose, the throttle may be difficult to control and performance will be adversely affected.

Check the throttle grip free play in accordance with scheduled maintenance requirements and make adjustments as necessary.

Always be alert for changes in the 'feel' of the throttle and have the throttle system checked by an authorised Triumph dealer if any changes are detected. Changes can be due to wear in the mechanism, which could lead to a sticking throttle.

An incorrectly adjusted, sticking or stuck throttle will lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Use of the motorcycle with incorrectly adjusted, incorrectly routed, sticking or damaged throttle cables will interfere with the throttle function resulting in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

To avoid incorrect adjustment, incorrect routing, or continued use of a sticking or damaged throttle, always have your throttle checked and adjusted by your authorised Triumph dealer.

Check that the throttle opens smoothly, without undue force and that it closes without sticking. Have your authorised Triumph dealer check the throttle system if a problem is detected or any doubt exists.

Check that there is 2 - 3 mm of throttle grip free play when lightly turning the throttle grip back and forth.

If there is an incorrect amount of free play, Triumph recommends that you have

adjustments made by your authorised Triumph dealer. However, in an emergency, throttle adjustment may be made as follows:

Adjustment

1. Opening cable

2. Rubber cover

3. Opening cable adjuster

4. Lock nut

5. Opening cable – free play measurement point

Maintenance and Adjustment

Warning

2 - 3 mm

To adjust the cable free play, slide the rubber boot to allow access to the adjuster.

Release the lock nut on the 'opening' cable adjuster.

Rotate the 'opening' cable adjuster at the twist grip end to give 2 - 3 mm of play at the twist grip. Tighten the lock nut to 2.5 Nm.

Refit the rubber cover.

Ensure that the adjuster lock nuts are tightened, as a loose lock nut could result in a sticking throttle.

An incorrectly adjusted, sticking or stuck throttle can lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Check that the throttle opens smoothly, without undue force and that it closes without sticking.

Ride carefully to your nearest authorised Triumph dealer and have him check the throttle system thoroughly before riding again.

Clutch

1. Clutch lever (Street Triple shown)

2. Adjuster

The motorcycle is equipped with a cable-operated clutch.

If the clutch lever has excessive free play, the clutch may not disengage fully. This will cause difficulty in changing gear and selecting neutral. This may cause the engine to stall and make the motorcycle difficult to control.

Conversely, if the clutch lever has insufficient free play the clutch may not engage fully, causing the clutch to slip, which will reduce performance and cause premature clutch wear.

Clutch lever free play must be checked in accordance with scheduled maintenance requirements.

Warning

Inspection

Check that there is 2 - 3 mm clutch lever free play at the lever.

If there is an incorrect amount of free play, adjustments must be made.

Adjustment

Loosen the knurled lock nut at the lever end of the clutch cable and turn the adjuster sleeve until the correct amount of clutch lever free play is achieved.

Tighten the knurled lock nut against the clutch lever assembly.

If correct adjustment cannot be made using the lever adjuster, use the cable adjuster at the lower end of the cable.

Loosen the adjuster lock nut.

Turn the outer cable adjuster to give 2 - 3 mm of free play at the clutch lever.

Tighten the lock nut.

Drive Chain

For safety and to prevent excessive wear the drive chain must be checked, adjusted and lubricated in accordance with scheduled maintenance requirements. Checking, adjustment and lubrication must be carried out more frequently for extreme conditions such as salty or heavily gritted roads.

If the chain is badly worn or incorrectly adjusted (either too loose or too tight) the chain could jump off the sprockets or break. Therefore, always replace worn or damaged chains using genuine Triumph parts supplied by an authorised Triumph dealer.

A loose or worn chain, or a chain that breaks or jumps off the sprockets could catch on the engine sprocket or lock the rear wheel.

A chain that snags on the engine sprocket will injure the rider and lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Similarly, locking the rear wheel will lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Caution

Warning

Chain Lubrication

Lubrication is necessary every 200 miles (300 km) and also after riding in wet weather, on wet roads, or any time that the chain appears dry.

Use the special chain lubricant as recommended in the Specification section.

Apply lubricant to the sides of the rollers then allow the motorcycle to stand unused for at least 8 hours (overnight is ideal). This will allow the oil to penetrate to the chain O-rings etc.

Before riding, wipe off any excess oil.

If the chain is especially dirty, clean first and then apply oil as mentioned above.

Do not use a pressure wash to clean the chain as this may cause damage to the chain components.

Chain Free-Movement Inspection

1. Maximum movement position

Before starting work, ensure the motorcycle is stabilised and adequately supported. This will help prevent injury to the operator or damage to the motorcycle.

Place the motorcycle on a level surface and hold it in an upright position with no weight on it.

Rotate the rear wheel by pushing the motorcycle to find the position where the chain is tightest, and measure the vertical movement of the chain midway between the sprockets.
