poisonous and can rapidly cause lossof consciousness and death within a

Always operate your motorcycle inthe open-air or in an area withadequate ventilation.

Page 28


A! CAUTION: Do not operate thestarter continuously for more

than 5 seconds as the starter motorwill overheat and battery power willdrop. Wait 15 seconds between eachoperation of the starter to allow forcooling and recovery of batterypower.

Do not let the engine idle for longperiods as this may lead tooverheating which will cause damageto the engine.

NOTE:

l If the engine is flooded, crank theengine over, with the throttle fullyopen.

l The motorcycle is equipped withstarter lockout switches. Theswitches prevent the electricstarter from operating when theclutch is engaged and thetransmission is not in neutral.

A! CAUTION: The low oilpressure warning light

should go out as soon as the enginestarts.

If the low oil pressure warning lightstays on after starting the engine,stop the engine immediately andinvestigate the cause.Running the engine with low oilpressure will cause severe enginedamage.

MOVING OFFl Pull in the clutch lever and select first

gear. Open the throttle slightly and letout the clutch lever slowly. As theclutch starts to engage, open thethrottle a little more, allowing enoughengine speed to avoid stalling.

1. Gear Change Pedal

CHANGING GEARS

l Close the throttle while pulling in theclutch lever. Change into the nexthigher or lower gear. Open thethrottle part way, while releasing theclutch lever. Always use the clutchwhen changing gear.

NOTE:. The gear change mechanism is the

‘positive stop’ type. This meansthat, for each movement of thegear change pedal, you can onlyselect each gear, one after theother, in ascending or descendingorder.

A WARNING: Do not change toa lower gear at speeds which

will cause excessive engine rpm(r/min). This can lock the rear wheelcausing loss of control and anaccident. Engine damage may also becaused. Changing down should bedone below 5000 rpm (r/min) for eachgear.

BRAKING

A WARNING: WHEN BRAKING,OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

Close the throttle completely, leavingthe clutch engaged to allow theengine to help slow down themotorcycle.

Change down one gear at a time suchthat the transmission is in first gearwhen the motorcycle comes to acomplete stop.

When stopping, always apply bothbrakes at the same time. Normally thefront brake should be applied a littlemore than the rear.

Change down or fully disengage theclutch as necessary to keep theengine from stalling.

Never lock the brakes, as this maycause loss of control of themotorcycle and an accident.

1. Rear Brake Pedal

A WARNING: For emergencybraking, disregard down

changing, and concentrate onapplying the front and rear brakes ashard as possible without skidding.Riders should practice emergencybraking in a traffic-free area.

Triumph strongly recommend that allriders take a course of instructionwhich includes advice on safe brakeoperation. Incorrect brake techniquecould result in loss of control and anaccident.

Page 30


A WARNING: For your safety,always exercise extreme

caution when braking, accelerating orturning as any incautious action cancause loss of control and an accident.Independent use of the front or rearbrakes reduces overall brakingperformance. Extreme braking maycause either wheel to lock, reducingcontrol of the motorcycle and causingan accident.

When possible, reduce speed orbrake before entering a turn asclosing the throttle or braking inmid-turn may cause wheel slipleading to loss of control and anaccident.

When riding in wet or rainyconditions, or on loose surfaces, theability to manoeuvre and stop will bereduced. All of your actions shouldbe smooth under these conditions.Sudden acceleration, braking orturning may cause loss of control andan accident.

A WARNING: Whendescending a long, steep

gradient use engine braking bydown-changing and use the brakesintermittently. Continuous brakeapplication can overheat the brakesand reduce their effectiveness.

Riding with your foot on the brakepedal or your hands on the brake levermay actuate the brake light, giving afalse indication to other drivers. Itmay also overheat the brake,reducing braking effectiveness.

Do not coast with the engine switchedoff, and do not tow the motorcycle.The t ransmission is pressure-lubricated only when the engine isrunning. Inadequate lubrication maycause damage or seizure of thetransmission which can lead tosudden loss of motorcycle controland an accident.

Page 31


PARKING

Select neutral and turn the ignition switch tothe ‘OFF’ position.

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

When parking on a hill, always park facinguphill to prevent the motorcycle from rollingoff the stand.

On a lateral (sideways) incline, always parkwith the motorcycle leaning towards thesidestand and engage first gear to preventthe motorcycle from moving.

Do not park on a lateral (sideways) incline ofgreater than 6” and never park facingdownhill.

Lock the steering to help prevent theft.

NOTE:

l When parking near traffic at night,leave the tail, licence plate and sidelights on by turning the ignitionswitch to P (Park).

. Do not leave the switch in the ‘P’position for long periods as thiswill discharge the battery.

A WARNING: Do not park on asoft or on a steeply inclined

surface as parking under theseconditions may cause the motorcycleto fall over. Ensure that the stand isfully retracted before riding off.

Petrol is extremely flammable and canbe explosive under certainconditions. If parking inside a garageor other structure, be sure it is wellventilated and the motorcycle is notclose to any source of flame orsparks. This includes any appliancewith a pilot light.

The engine and exhaust system willbe hot after riding. DO NOT parkwhere pedestrians and children arelikely to touch the motorcycle astouching any of the hot parts maycause unprotected skin to becomeburnt.

A WARNING: The handlingcharacteristics of a

motorcycle at high speed may varyfrom those you are familiar with atlegal road speeds. Do not attempthigh speed operation unless you havereceived sufficient training and havethe required skills as a seriousaccident may result from incorrectoperation.

Page 3 3

Check that the front and rear brakes arefunctioning properly.

Steering

Check that the handlebar turns smoothlywithout excessive free play or tight spots,Ensure that the control cables do not restrictthe steering in any way.

Tyres

High speed operation is hard on tyres, andgood tyres are crucial for riding safely.Examine their overall condition, inflate to thecorrect pressure (when the tyres are cold),and check the wheel balance. Securely fitthe valve caps after checking tyrepressures. Observe the information given inmaintenance and specification sections ontyre checking and tyre safety.

Fuel

Have sufficient fuel for the higherconsumption experienced during highspeed operation.

Engine Oil

Make certain that the oil level is visiblemid-way up the sight glass. Ensure that thecorrect grade and type of oil is used whentopping-up.

Coolant

Check that the coolant level is at the upperlevel line in the expansion tank. (Alwayscheck level with engine cold).

Electrical Equipment

Make certain that the headlight, rear/brakelight, turn signals, horn etc., all workproperly.

MiscellaneousMake certain that all fixings are tight and thatall safety related parts are in good condition.

Accessories, Loading and Passengers

The addition of accessories and carriage ofadditional weight can affect the motorcycle’shandling characteristics causing changes instability and necessitating a reduction inspeed. The following information has beenprepared as a guide to the potential hazardsof adding accessories to a motorcycle andcarrying passengers and additional loads,

A WARNING: Incorrect loadingmay result in an unsafe riding

condition leading to an accident.

Always ensure any loads carried areevenly distributed on both sides ofthe motorcycle. Ensure that the loadis correctly secured such that it willnot move around while themotorcycle is in motion.

Always check the load securityregularly (though not while themotorcycle is in motion) and ensurethat the load does not extend beyondthe rear of the motorcycle.

Never exceed the maximum vehicleloading weight of 185 Kg (407 Ibs).

This maximum weight is made upfrom the combined weight of the rider,passenger and any load carried.

A WARNING: Do not installaccessories or carry luggage

that impairs the control of themotorcycle. Make sure that you havenot adversely affected any lightingcomponent, road clearance, bankingcapability (i.e. lean angle), controloperation, wheel travel, front forkmovement, or any other aspect of themotorcycle’s operation.

A WARNING: Never ride anaccessory equipped

motorcycle at speeds above 130km/h(80mph).

The presence of accessories willcause changes in the stability andhandling of the motorcycle.

Failure to allow for changes inmotorcycle stability may lead to lossof control or an accident.

Remember that the 130km/h (8Omph)limit will be reduced by the fittingof non-approved accessories,incorrect loading, worn tyres, overallmotorcycle condition and poor roador weather conditions.

authorised closed course conditions.

A WARNING: The handling andbraking capabilities of a

motorcycle will be affected by thepresence of a passenger. The ridermust make allowances for thesechanges when operating themotorcycle with a passenger.

Motorcycle operation without makingallowances for the presence of apassenger could lead to loss ofmotorcycle control and an accident.

Page 34

Accessories, Loading and Passengers

A WARNING: Single seatmodels must never carry a

passenger unless a passenger seat isfitted. Carrying a passenger withoutfirst fitting a passenger seat willcontravene the law and may alsocause loss of motorcycle controlleading to an accident.

A WARNING: Your passengershould be thoroughly familiar

with motorcycle operation.

The passenger can cause loss ofcontrol of the motorcycle by incorrectpositioning during cornering andsudden movements.

It is important that the passenger sitsstill while the motorcycle is in motionand does not interfere with theoperation of the motorcycle.

If a passenger is carried, the ridershould instruct the passenger to keephis or her feet on the passengerfootrests and to firmly hold onto theseat strap or the rider’s waist or hips.

The passenger should also beadvised to lean with the rider whentravelling in corners and not to leanunless the rider does so.

Do not carry animals on yourmotorcycle.

A WARNING: Do not carry apassenger unless he or she is

tall enough to reach the footrestsprovided.

A passenger who is not tall enough toreach the footrests will be unable tosit securely on the motorcycle andmay cause instability leading to lossof control and an accident.

A WARNING: Never attempt tostore any items between the

frame and the fairing. This canrestrict the steering and will causeloss of control leading to an accident,

Weight attached to the handlebar OIfront fork will increase the mass of thesteering assembly and can result inloss of steering control leading to anaccident.

l Ensure that the oil pressure warninglight extinguishes shortly afterstarting.

A!CAUTION: If the engine oilpressure is too low, the low oil

pressure warning light will illuminate.If this light stays on when the engineis running, stop the engineimmediately and investigate thecause. Running the engine with lowoil pressure will cause enginedamage.

l Stop the engine and check the oillevel. Adjust if necessary.

Disposal of Used Engine Oil

To protect the environment, do not pour oilon the ground, down sewers or drains, orinto water courses. Dispose of used oilsensibly. If in doubt contact your localauthority.

A! CAUTION: Triumph highperformance fuel injected

engines are designed to use semi orfully synthetic 10W/40 motorcycleengine oil which meets specificationAPI SH.

Do not add any chemical additives tothe engine oil. The engine oil alsolubricates the clutch and anyadditives could cause the clutch toslip.

Do not use mineral, vegetable,non-detergent oil, castor based oilsor any oil not conforming to therequired specification. The use ofthese oils may cause instant, severeengine damage.

Ensure no foreign matter enters thecrankcase during an oil change ortop-up.

Page 43


COOLINGSYSTEM

To ensure efficientengine cooling,check the coolant level each day beforeriding the motorcycle, and top up the coolantif the level is low.

Corrosion Inhibitors

To protect the cooling system from rust andcorrosion, the use of corrosion inhibitorchemicals in the coolant is essential.

If coolant containing corrosion and rustinhibitor chemicals is not used, the coolingsystem will accumulate rust and scale in thewater jacket and radiator. This will block thecoolant passages, and considerably reducethe efficiency of the cooling system.

A WARNING: Use coolantmixture containing corrosion

inhibitors and anti-freeze suitable foraluminium engines and radiators.Always use the anti-freeze inaccordance with the instructions ofthe manufacturer.

Coolant mixture which contains anti-freeze and corrosion inhibitorscontains toxic chemicals which areharmful to the human body. Neverswallow anti-freeze or any of themotorcycle coolant.

Coolant Change

Have the coolant changed by an authorisedTriumph dealer in accordance withscheduled maintenance requirements.

Radiator Hoses

Check the radiator hoses for cracks ordeterioration, and hose clips for tightness inaccordance with scheduled maintenancerequirements. Have your authorisedTriumph dealer replace any defective items.

CAUTION: A permanent typeof antifreeze is installed in the

cooling system when the motorcycleleaves the factory. It is coloured blue,contains a 50% solution of ethyleneglycol, and has a freezing point of-35°C (-31 *F

Radiator and Cooling Fan

Check the radiator fins for obstructions byinsects, leaves or mud. Clean off anyobstructions with a stream of low-pressurewater.

the fan. Contact with the rotating fan

A CAUTION:!

Using highpressure water, such as from

a car wash facility, can damage theradiator fins and impair the radiator’sefficiency.

Do not obstruct or deflect airflowthrough the radiator by installingunauthorised accessories, either infront of the radiator or behind thecooling fan. Interference with theradiator airflow can causeoverheating, resulting in enginedamage.

PI

NOTE

l If the coolant level is beingchecked because the coolant hasoverheated, also check the level int h e r a d i a t o r a n d t o p - u p i fnecessary.

l In an emergency, water alone canbe added to the cooling system.However, the coolant must bereturned to the correct mixtureratio as soon as possible.

A WARNING: Do not removethe radiator cap when the

engine is hot. When the engine is hot,the coolant inside the radiator is hotand also under pressure. Contactwith this hot, pressurised coolant willcause scalds and skin damage.

l Position the motorcycle on levelground and in an upright position.

l Remove the seat.

l Check the coolant level in theexpansion tank. The coolant levelmust be between the ‘MAX’ and ‘MIN’marks.

l If the level of coolant is too low,remove the cap from the expansiontank, and add coolant mixturethrough the filler opening to the ‘MAX’mark. Refit the cap.

A! CAUTION: Distilled watermust be used with the

antifreeze (see specification forantifreeze) in the cooling system.

If hard water is used in the system, itcauses scale accumulation in thewater passages, and considerablyreduces the efficiency of the coolingsystem.

If coolant must be added often, or theexpansion tank runs dry, there isprobably a leak in the system. Havethe cooling system inspected by yourauthorised Triumph dealer.

set. At the front, where two calipersare fitted on the same wheel, replaceall the brake pads in both calipers.

Replacing individual pads will reducebraking efficiency and may cause anaccident.

Disc Brake Fluid

Inspect the level of brake fluid in bothreservoirs and change the brake fluid inaccordance with scheduled maintenancerequirements. Use only DOT 4 fluid asrecommended in the specification section.The brake fluid must also be changed if itbecomes, or is suspected of having becomecontaminated with moisture or any othercontaminants.

A WARNING: Brake fluid ishygroscopic which means it

will absorb moisture from the air.

Any absorbed moisture will greatlyreduce the boiling point of the brakefluid causing a reduction in brakingefficiency.

Because of this, always replace brakefluid in accordance with scheduledmaintenance requirements.

Always use new brake fluid from asealed container and never use fluidfrom an unsealed container or fromone which has been previouslyopened.

Do not mix different brands or gradesof brake fluid.

Check for fluid leakage around brakefittings, seals and joints and alsocheck the brake hoses for splits,deterioration and damage.

Always rectify any faults beforeriding.

Failure to observe and act upon any ofthese items may cause a dangerousriding condition leading to loss ofcontrol and an accident.

Typical Tyre Marking

TYRES

This motorcycleis equipped withtubeless tyres, valves and wheel rims. Useonly tyres marked ‘TUBELESS’ andtubeless valves on rims marked ‘SUITABLEFOR TUBELESS TYRES’.

Tyre Inflation Pressures

Correct inflation pressure will providemaximum stability, rider comfort and tyrelife. Always check tyre pressures beforeriding when the tyres are cold. Check tyrepressures daily and adjust if necessary.See the specification section for details ofthe correct inflation pressures.

Wheel Marking

A WARNING: Incorrect tyreinflation will cause abnormal

tread wear and instability problemswhich may lead to loss of control andan accident.

Under-inflation may result in the tyreslipping on, or coming off the rim.Over-inflation will cause instabilityand accelerated tread wear.

Both conditions are dangerous asthey may cause loss of controlleading to an accident.

Page 58


Tyre Wear

As the tyre tread k!!??@!wears down, thetyre becomes more susceptible topunctures and failure. It is estimated that90% of all tyre failures occur during the last10% of tread life (90% worn). It is, therefore,false economy and unsafe to use tyres untilthey are worn to their minimum.

l In accordance with the periodicmaintenance chart, measure thedepth of the tread with a depth gauge,and replace any tyre that has worn tothe minimum allowable tread depth.

Minimum Recommended Tread Depth

A WARNING: This motorcyclemust not be operated above

the legal road speed limit except inauthorised closed course conditions.

A WARNING: Operation withexcessively worn tyres is

hazardous and will adversely affecttraction, stability and handling whichmay lead to loss of control and anaccident.

When tubeless tyres becomepunctured, leakage is often very slow.Always inspect tyres very closely forpunctures. Check the tyres for cuts,imbedded nails or other sharpobjects. Operation with punctured ordamaged tyres will adversely affectstability and handling which may leadto loss of control or an accident.

Check the rims for dents ordeformation. Operation withdamaged or defective wheels or tyresis dangerous and loss of control or anaccident could result.

Always consult your authorisedTriumph dealer for tyre replacement,or for a safety inspection of the tyres.

Page 59


Tyre Replacement

All Triumph motorcycles are carefully andextensively tested in a range of ridingconditions to ensure that the most effectivetyre combinations are approved for use oneach model. It is essential that approvedtyres, fitted in approved combinations, areused when purchasing replacement tyres.The use of non approved tyres, or approvedtyres in non approved combinations, maylead to motorcycle instability and anaccident. See the specification section fordetails of approved tyre combinations.Always have tyres fitted and balanced byyour authorised Triumph dealer who has thenecessary training and skills to ensure safe,effective fitment.

repaired tyre can lead to instability,

A WARNING: Do not installtube-type tyres on tubeless

rims. The bead will not seat and thetyres could slip on the rims, causingrapid tyre deflation that may result ina loss of vehicle control and anaccident. Never install an inner tubeinside a tubeless tyre. This will causefriction inside the tyre and theresulting head build-up may causethe tube to burst resulting in rapidtyre deflation, loss of vehicle controland an accident.

A WARNING: If tyre damage issuspected, such as after

striking the kerb, ask your authorisedTriumph dealer to inspect the tyreboth internally and externally.Remember, tyre damage may notalways be visible from the outside.Operation of the motorcycle withdamaged tyres could lead to loss ofcontrol and an accident.

A WARNING: Whenreplacement tyres are

required, consult your authorisedTriumph dealer who will arrange forthe tyres to be selected, in a correctcombination, from the approved listand fined according to the tyremanufacturer’s instructions.

When tyres are replaced, allow timefor the tyres to seat to the rim(approximately 24 hours). During thisseating period, ride cautiously as anincorrectly seated tyre could causeloss of control or an accident.

Initially, the new tyres will notproduce the same handlingcharacteristics as the worn tyres andthe rider must allow adequate ridingdistance (approximately 100 miles) tobecome accustomed to the newhandling characteristics.

Page 60


A WARNING (continued fromprevious page): 24 hours

after fitting, the tyre pressures mustbe checked and adjusted, and thetyres examined for correct seating.Rectification must be carried out asnecessary.

The same checks and adjustmentsmust also be carried out when 100miles have been travelled after fitting.

Use of a motorcycle with incorrectlyseated tyres, incorrectly adjusted tyrepressures, or when not accustomedto its handling characteristics maylead to loss of control and anaccident.

A WARNING: Tyres that havebeen used on a rolling road

dynamometer may become damaged.In some cases, the damage may notbe visible on the external surface ofthe tyre.

Tyres must be replaced after such useas continued use of a damaged tyremay lead to instability, loss of controland an accident.

A WARNING: Accurate wheelbalance is necessary for safe,

stable handling of the motorcycle. Donot remove or change any wheelbalance weights., Incorrect wheelbalance may cause instability leadingto loss of control and an accident.

When wheel balancing is required,such as after tyre replacement, seeyour authorised Triumph dealer.

Only use self-adhesive weights. Clipon weights may damage the wheeland tyre resulting in tyre deflation,loss of control and an accident.

l Reduce tyre pressure by about 20%.

l Set the motorcycle on a box or standso that both wheels are raised off theground. (If this cannot be done, putboards under the front and rearwheels to keep dampness away fromthe tyre rubber).

l Spray oil on all unpainted metalsurfaces to prevent rusting. Preventoil from getting on rubber parts, brakediscs or in the brake calipers.

l Lubricate the drive chain and all thecontrol cables.

l Remove the battery, and store itwhere it will not be exposed to directsunlight, moisture, or freezingtemperatures. During storage itshould be given a slow charge (oneampere or less) about once a month.Keep the battery well charged during

cold weather so that the electrolytedoes not freeze and crack the battery.The more discharged the batterybecomes, the more easily it freezes.

l Tie plastic bags over the exhaust pipeto prevent moisture from entering.

l Put a cover over the motorcycle tokeep dust and dirt from collecting onit.

Preparation after Storage:

Check the electrolyte level in thebattery, charge the bat tery i fnecessary, and install it in themotorcycle. Be careful that thebattery vent hose is not pinched andthat it is routed as shown on the label.

Fill the fuel tank with fuel.

Change the engine oil and filter.

Check all the points listed in the DailySafety Checks section.

Before starting the engine, removespark plugs.

Put side stand down. This will isolatethe ignition and prevent stray sparksand damage to the ignition system.

Crank the engine on the starter motorseveral times until the oil pressurelight goes out.

Replace spark plugs and startengine.

Check brakes and operation.
