How to Ride the Motorcycle
Considerations for High
Speed Operation
Warning
Do not park on a soft or on a
steeply inclined surface as parking
under these conditions may cause
the motorcycle to fall over.
Ensure that the stand is fully
retracted before riding off.
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.
The engine and exhaust system
will be hot after riding. DO NOT
park where pedestrians and
children are likely to touch the
motorcycle as touching any of the
hot parts may cause unprotected
skin to become burnt.
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
consideration of weather and traffic
conditions.
Warning
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.
