General Information
Ignition Key
1. Key number tag
In addition to operating the steering lock/
ignition switch, the ignition key is required to
operate the seat lock and fuel tank cap.
When the motorcycle is delivered from the
factory, two keys are supplied together with a
small tag bearing the key number. Make a
note of the key number and store the spare
key and key number tag in a safe place away
from the motorcycle.
A transponder is fitted within the key to turn
off the engine immobiliser. To ensure the
immobiliser functions correctly, always have
only one of the ignition keys near the ignition
switch. Having two ignition keys near the
switch may interrupt the signal between the
transponder and the engine immobiliser. In
this situation the engine immobiliser will
remain active until one of the ignition keys is
removed.
Always get replacement keys from your
authorised Triumph dealer. Replacement keys
must be 'paired' with the motorcycle’s
immobiliser by your authorised Triumph
dealer.

Caution
Do not store the spare key with the
motorcycle as this will reduce all aspects of
security.
