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

as a guide to the potential hazards of
adding accessories to a motorcycle and
carrying passengers and additional
loads.
Accessories
Warning
Do not install accessories or carry
luggage that impairs the control of the
motorcycle.
Make sure that you have not
adversely affected 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.
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.
