HOW TO RIDE THE MOTORCYCLE
121
Triumph Shift Assist (TSA)
(if
equipped)
Caution
In the event of a TSA system fault
when riding, the TSA system will be
disabled.
Use the clutch to shift 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
Shifting 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 shifting gears.
After a gear shift, the pedal must be
fully released before another gear
shift can be made.
Incorrect gear shifts 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.
TSA is not an automatic system for
shifting gears. Gears must be selected
and shifted in the normal way using the
gear pedal as described on page
120.
TSA works for both up shifts and down
shifts of gear. The clutch must be used
for stopping and pulling away. The
clutch must be used when selecting any
gear from neutral, and also when
selecting neutral from any other gear.
Triumph Shift Assist will not operate if:
▼
The clutch is applied.
▼ An up shift is attempted by mistake
when in 6th gear.
▼ A down shift is attempted by mistake
when in 1st gear.
▼
An up shift is attempted at very low
engine speeds.
▼
A down shift is attempted at very
high engine speeds.
▼
An up shift is attempted during
overrun.
▼
The vehicle speed limiter is active.
▼ Cruise control is active.
▼ Traction control is operating.
▼
If the previous gear has not fully
engaged.
▼
The throttle is changed during a
shift.
If TSA does not operate, the clutch can
be used to shift gears in the normal
way.
