HOW TO RIDE THE MOTORCYCLE
95
To change gears:
▼
Close the throttle while pulling in the
clutch lever.
▼ Change into the next higher or lower
gear.
▼ Open the throttle part way, while
releasing the clutch lever.
▼ Always use the clutch when
changing gear.
Note
The gear change mechanism is the
'positive stop' type. This means that, for
each movement of the gear change
pedal, you can only select each gear,
one after the other, in ascending or
descending order.
Triumph Shift Assist (TSA) (if
fitted)
Caution
Triumph Shift Assist (TSA) is optimised
for on-road use.
It must not be used during off-road
riding.
Caution
In the event of a TSA system fault
when riding, the TSA system will be
disabled.
Use the clutch to change gears in the
normal way otherwise damage to the
engine or gear box may occur.
Contact a Triumph dealer as soon as
possible to have the fault checked and
rectified.
Caution
Changing gears must be completed
with a quick and forceful pedal
movement, making sure that the pedal
moves through its full range of travel.
Always take care when changing
gears. After a gear change, the pedal
must be fully released before another
gear change can be made.
Incorrect gear changes can cause
damage
to the engine and
transmission.
Triumph Shift Assist (TSA) adjusts the
engine torque to allow gears to engage,
without closure of the throttle twist grip
or operation of the clutch.
