General Information
32
• MIL illuminated, limp-home mode
with the engine at a fast idle
condition only
• MIL illuminated, engine will not start.
For all of the above conditions contact
an authorised Triumph dealer as soon
as possible to have the fault checked
and rectified.
Warning
Reduce speed and do not continue to
ride for longer than is necessary with
the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
illuminated.
The fault may adversely affect engine
performance, exhaust emissions and
fuel consumption.
Reduced engine performance could
cause a dangerous riding condition,
leading to loss of control and an
accident. Contact an authorised
Triumph dealer as soon as possible to
have the fault checked and rectified.
Brake Use
At low throttle opening (approximately
20°), the brakes and throttle can be
used together.
At high throttle opening (greater than
20°), if the brakes are applied for greater
than two seconds the throttles will
close and the engine speed will reduce.
To return to normal throttle operation,
release the throttle control, release the
brakes and then reopen the throttle.
Brake Lever Adjuster
Warning
Do not attempt to adjust the levers
with the motorcycle in motion as this
may lead to loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
After adjusting the levers, operate the
motorcycle in an area free from traffic
to gain familiarity with the new lever
setting.
Do not loan your motorcycle to anyone
as they may change the lever setting
from the one you are familiar with
causing loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
An adjuster is fitted to the front brake
lever. The adjuster allows the distance
from the handlebar to the brake lever
to be changed to suit the span of the
rider's hands.
