Warning
Make sure that the correct balance
between front and rear suspension is
maintained.
Suspension imbalance could
significantly change handling
characteristics leading to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Refer to the tables for further
information or consult your authorised
Triumph dealer.
The motorcycle is delivered from the
factory with the rear suspension set
at the Solo (normal) riding settings, as
shown in the relevant suspension chart.
The Solo suspension settings provide
a comfortable ride and good handling
characteristics for general, solo riding.
The suspension settings charts
show suggested settings for the rear
suspension and are only a guide. Setting
requirements may vary for rider weight
and personal preferences.
