FOREWORD - SAFETY FIRST
The Motorcycle Fuel and Exhaust Fumes
Warning
This motorcycle is designed for onroad use only. It is not suitable for offroad use.
Off-road operation could lead to loss
of control of the motorcycle resulting
in an accident causing injury or loss of
life.
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 use as
a two-wheeled vehicle capable of
carrying a rider on his/her own, or a
rider and one passenger.
The total weight of the rider, and any
passenger, accessories and luggage
must not exceed the maximum load
limit of 198 kg.
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 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

Helmet and Clothing
Warning
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.
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.

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
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.
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.
Foreword - Safety First

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 his hands from the
handlebars, resulting in loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
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
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.
Warning
Use of a motorcycle with the bank
angle indicator worn beyond the
maximum limit (when 5 mm of the
bank indicator remains) 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.

Parking Parts and Accessories
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.
Warning
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.
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.
Foreword - 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.
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 Lights
Engine Management System
Malfunction Indicator Light
The Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) for the engine
management system illumi-
nates when the ignition is
switched on (to indicate that it is
working) but should not become
illuminated when the engine is running.
If the malfunction indicator light
becomes illuminated when the engine is
running, this indicates that a fault has
occurred in one or more of the systems
controlled by the engine management
system. In such circumstances, the
engine management system will 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.
Note:
• If the malfunction indicator light
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 in the
tachometer will illuminate.
The low oil pressure warning light in the
tachometer will illuminate if the ignition
is switched on without running the
engine.
Warning
Reduce speed and do not continue to
ride for longer than is necessary with
the malfunction indicator light
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.
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
24
High Coolant Temperature Warning
Light
With the engine running, if the
engine coolant temperature
becomes dangerously high,
the high coolant temperature
warning light in the tachometer will
illuminate.
The high coolant temperature warning
light in the tachometer will illuminate if
the ignition is switched on without
running the engine.
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 the 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 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.
Caution
Stop the engine immediately if the
high coolant temperature 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 high
coolant temperature warning light is
illuminated.
General Information
25
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, 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.
See also Braking on page 71.
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.
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 26).
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.
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 control and
an accident.

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 has a
malfunction that requires investigation.
Direction Indicators
When the direction indicator
switch is pushed to the left or
right, the direction indicator
light will flash on and off at the same
speed as the direction indicators.
High Beam
When the ignition is switched
on and the high beam button
is pressed, the high beam
warning light will illuminate.
Daytime Running Lights (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.
Low Fuel
The low fuel indicator will
illuminate when there are
approximately 3.5 litres of fuel
remaining in the tank.
Neutral
The neutral warning light
indicates when the
transmission is in neutral (no
gear selected). The warning
light will illuminate when the
transmission is in neutral with the
ignition switch in the ON position.
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.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) Warning Light
(Only on models fitted with TPMS)
The tyre pressure warning
light works in conjunction with
the tyre pressure monitoring
system (see page 50).
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.
When the warning light is illuminated,
the TPMS symbol indicating which is the
deflated tyre and its pressure will
automatically be shown in the display
area.
1. TPMS symbol
2. Rear tyre, identified
3. Tyre pressure
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 52). 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.
