ACCESSORIES, LOADING AND PASSENGERS

Loading
Warning
Always make sure that any loads
carried are evenly distributed on both
sides of the motorcycle. Make sure
that the load is correctly secured so
that it will not move around while the
motorcycle is in motion.
Evenly distribute the load within each
pannier (if fitted). Pack heavy items at
the bottom and on the inboard side of
the pannier.
Always check the load security
regularly (though not while the
motorcycle is in motion) and make
sure that the load does not extend
beyond the rear of the motorcycle.
Never exceed the maximum vehicle
loading weight as specified in the
Specifications section.
This maximum loading weight is made
up from the combined weight of the
rider, passenger, any accessories
fitted and any load carried.
For models that have adjustable
suspension settings, make sure that
front and rear spring preload and
damping settings are suitable for the
loading condition of the motorcycle.
Note
the maximum permissible
payload for the panniers is stated on a
label inside the pannier.
Incorrect loading may result in an
unsafe riding condition leading to an
accident.
Warning
Never attempt to store any items
between the frame and the fuel tank.
This can restrict the steering and will
cause loss of control leading to an
accident.
Weight attached to the handlebar or
front fork will increase the mass of the
steering assembly and can result in
loss of steering control leading to an
accident.
Warning
The maximum safe load for each
pannier is stated on a label inside the
pannier.
Never exceed this loading limit as this
may cause the motorcycle to become
unstable leading to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Speed Triple 1200 RS Only
Warning
If the passenger seat is used to carry
small objects, they must not exceed 3
kg (6.5 lbs) in weight, must not impair
control of the motorcycle, must be
securely attached and must not
extend beyond the rear or sides of the
motorcycle.
Carrying objects in excess of 3 kg (6.5
lbs) in weight, that are insecure, impair
control or extend beyond the rear or
sides of the motorcycle may lead to
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Even if small objects are correctly
loaded onto the passenger seat, the
maximum speed of the motorcycle
must be reduced to 80
mph (130 km/h).
