removed from the motorcycle and kept
charged using a Triumph approved
maintenance charger.
Similarly, should the battery charge fall
to a level where it will not start the
motorcycle, remove the battery from
the motorcycle before charging.
Battery Installation
Warning
Make sure that the battery terminals
do not touch the motorcycle frame.
This may cause a short circuit or
