Safety First

The Motorcycle

Warning

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 and footrests being fitted).

The total weight of the rider, and any passenger, accessories and luggage must not exceed the maximum load limit of 210 kg (463 lb).

Warning

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.

Warning

This motorcycle is designed for onroad and light off-road use. Light offroad use includes use on unpaved, dirt or gravel roads, but does not include riding on any motocross course, any off-road competition (such as motocross or enduro riding), or riding off-road with a passenger.

Light off-road use does not include jumping the motorcycle or riding over obstacles. Do not attempt to jump over any bumps or obstacles. Do not attempt to ride over any obstacles.

Extreme off-road use could lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Warning

Riding the motorcycle off-road may result in loosening of the spokes.

Make sure that the spokes are checked before and after riding the motorcycle off-road. Tighten any loose spokes and check for wheel rim damage.

Spokes that are loose may affect handling and stability resulting in motorcycle damage, loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Safety First

Warning

Check the wheel rims and spokes regularly for wear and damage.

Check spoke tension at all intervals listed in the maintenance schedule. Tighten any loose spokes.

Incorrectly tightened spokes may affect handling and stability resulting in motorcycle damage, loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Caution

Riding the motorcycle in extreme conditions such as wet and muddy roads, on rough terrain or in dusty and humid environments, may lead to above average wear and damage of certain components.

Therefore the servicing and replacement of worn or damaged components may be necessary before the scheduled maintenance service is reached.

It is important that the motorcycle is inspected after riding in extreme conditions and any worn or damaged components are serviced or replaced.

Fuel and Exhaust Fumes

Warning

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.

Warning

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 the motorcycle in the open air or in an area with adequate ventilation.

Safety First

Helmet and Clothing

Warning

When riding the motorcycle, both rider and passenger (on models where carrying a passenger is permitted) must always wear appropriate clothing including a motorcycle helmet, eye protection, gloves, boots, trousers (close fitting around the knee and ankle) and a brightly coloured jacket.

During off-road use (on models suitable for off-road use), the rider must always wear appropriate clothing including trousers and boots.

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.

Warning

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.

Safety First

Parking

Warning

Always switch 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.

Parts and Accessories

Warning

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 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.

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

Make sure 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.

Riding

Warning

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.

Warning

All riders must be licenced 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.

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.

Warning

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.

Safety First

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

Warning

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.

Handlebars and Footrests

Warning

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 their hands from the handlebars, resulting in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Warning

The rider and passenger (if applicable) 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

The bank angle indicators must not be used as a guide to how far the motorcycle may be safely banked.

This depends on many various conditions including, but not limited to, road surface, tyre condition and weather. Banking to an unsafe angle may cause instability, loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Safety First

Warning

When banking and the bank angle indicator, attached to the rider's footrest, makes contact with the ground, the motorcycle is nearing its bank angle limit. A further increase of the banking angle is unsafe.

The maximum wear limit is shown by a groove on the bank angle indicator.

Banking to an unsafe angle may cause instability, loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

1. Bank angle indicator

Warning

Use of a motorcycle with bank angle indicators worn beyond the maximum limit will allow the motorcycle to be banked to an unsafe angle. Therefore, always replace the bank angle indicator pegs before they are worn to their maximum limit. Banking to an unsafe angle may cause instability, loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Details of the bank angle wear limits can be found in the Maintenance and Adjustment section on page 143.

General Information

Warning Lights

Note

When the ignition is switched on, the instrument warning lights will illuminate for 1.5 seconds and will then go off (except those which remain on until the engine starts, as described in the following pages).

For additional warning and information messages, see page 36.

Engine Management System Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)

The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) for the engine management system

illuminates when the ignition is switched ON (to indicate that it is working) but should not become illuminated when the engine is running.

If the engine is running and there is a fault with the engine management system the MIL will be illuminated and the general warning symbol will flash. In such circumstances, the engine management system may switch to 'limp-home' mode so that the journey may be completed, if the fault is not so severe that the engine will not run.

Warning

Reduce speed and do not continue to ride for longer than is necessary with the MIL illuminated. The fault may adversely affect engine performance, exhaust emissions and fuel consumption.

Reduced engine performance could cause a dangerous riding condition, leading to loss of control and an accident.

Contact an authorised Triumph dealer as soon as possible to have the fault checked and rectified.

Note

If the MIL flashes when the ignition is switched ON contact an authorised Triumph dealer as soon as possible to have the situation rectified. In these circumstances the engine will not start.

Low Oil Pressure Warning Light

With the engine running, if the engine oil pressure becomes dangerously low, the low oil pressure warning light

will illuminate.

Caution

Stop the engine immediately if the low oil pressure warning light illuminates. Do not restart the engine until the fault has been rectified.

Severe engine damage will result from running the engine when the low oil pressure warning light is illuminated.

General Information

Note

The low oil pressure warning light will illuminate if the ignition is switched ON without running the engine.

Immobiliser/Alarm Indicator Light

This Triumph motorcycle is fitted with an engine immobiliser which is activated when the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position.

Without Alarm Fitted

When the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, the 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 indicator light remains on it indicates that the immobiliser has a malfunction that requires investigation. Contact an authorised Triumph dealer as soon as possible to have the fault checked and rectified.

With Alarm Fitted

The immobiliser/alarm light will only illuminate when the conditions described in the genuine Triumph accessory alarm instructions are met.

Note

Traction control will not function if there is a malfunction with the ABS. The warning lights for the ABS, traction control and the MIL will be illuminated.

The warning light will not illuminate again until the engine is restarted unless there is a fault, or the ABS is disabled by the rider.

If the ABS is disabled by the rider the warning light will illuminate until the ABS is enabled again.

If there is a fault with the ABS system the warning light will be illuminated and the general warning symbol will flash.

Warning

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 motorcycle control and an accident.

Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) 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.

Traction Control (TC) Indicator Light

The TC indicator light is used to indicate that the traction control system is active and is

working to limit rear wheel slip during periods of hard acceleration or under wet or slippery road conditions.

General Information

Warning

If the traction control is not functioning, care must be taken when accelerating and cornering on wet/ slippery road surfaces to avoid rear wheel spin. Do not continue to ride for longer than is necessary with the Engine Management System Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) and traction control warning lights illuminated. Contact an authorised Triumph dealer as soon as possible to have the fault checked.

Hard acceleration and cornering in this situation may cause the rear wheel to spin resulting in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

TC Indicator Light Operation:

TC Switched On:

• Under normal riding conditions the indicator light will remain off.

• The indicator light will flash rapidly when the traction control system is working to limit rear wheel slip during periods of hard acceleration or under wet or slippery road conditions.

TC Switched Off:

The indicator light will not illuminate. Instead the TC disabled warning light will be illuminated (see page 29).

Note

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.

Traction Control (TC) Disabled Warning Light

The TC disabled warning light should not illuminate unless traction control is switched off or there is a malfunction.

If the warning light becomes illuminated at any other time while riding, it indicates that the traction control system has a malfunction that requires investigation.

Direction Indicators

When the direction indicator switch is turned to the left or right, the direction indicator

warning light will flash on and off at the same speed as the direction indicators.

Hazard Warning Lights

To turn the hazard warning lights on or off, press and release the hazard warning light switch.

The ignition must be switched ON for the hazard warning lights to function.

The hazard warning lights will remain on if the ignition is switched off, until the hazard warning light switch is pressed again.

High Beam Light

When the high beam button is

pressed the high beam will be

switched on. Each press of

the button will swap between dip and high beam.

General Information

Note

If daytime running lights are fitted to the motorcycle, the high beam button has additional functionality.

If the DRL switch is in the daytime running lights position, then press and hold the high beam button to turn the high beam on. It will remain on as long as the button is held in and will turn off as soon as the button is released.

Note

A lighting on/off switch is not fitted to this model. The rear light and licence plate light all function automatically when the ignition is on.

The headlight will function when the ignition is on. The headlight will go off while pressing the starter button until the engine starts.

Daytime Running Lights (DRL) (if fitted)

When the ignition is switched ON and the daytime running lights switch is set to

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS, the daytime running lights warning light will illuminate.

The daytime running lights and low beam headlights are operated manually using a switch on the left hand switch housing, see page 63.

Warning

Do not ride for longer than necessary in poor ambient light conditions with the Daytime Running Lights (DRL) in use.

Riding with the Daytime Running Lights when dark, in tunnels or where poor ambient light is apparent may reduce the riders vision or dazzle other road users.

Dazzling other road users or reduced vision in low ambient light levels may result in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.

Note

During daylight hours the Daytime Running Lights improve the motorcycles visibility to other road users.

Low beam headlights must be used in any other conditions unless the road conditions allow for high beam headlights to be used.

Low Fuel Warning Light

The low fuel warning light will illuminate when there are approximately 3.5 litres of fuel remaining in the tank.

General Warning Symbol

The general warning symbol will be shown in the information tray

if an ABS or engine management fault has occurred and the ABS and/or MIL warning lights are illuminated. Contact an authorised Triumph dealer as soon as possible to have the fault checked and rectified.
