How To Ride The Motorcycle
102
Warning
Continued
contact an authorized Triumph dealer
as soon as possible to have the fault
checked and rectified. In this situation,
braking too hard will cause the wheels
to lock resulting in loss of control and
an accident.
Warning
The ABS warning light will illuminate
when the rear wheel is driven at high
speed for more than 30 seconds when
the motorcycle is on a stand. This
reaction is normal.
When the ignition is switched off and
the motorcycle is restarted, the
warning light will illuminate until the
motorcycle reaches a speed exceeding
30 km/h (19 mph).
Warning
The
ABS
system
operates
by
comparing the relative speed of the
front and rear wheels. Use of non-
recommended tires can affect wheel
speed and cause the ABS function not
to operate, potentially leading to loss
of control and an accident in
conditions where the ABS would
normally function.
Parking
Select neutral and turn the ignition
switch to the OFF position.
Lock the steering to help prevent theft.
Always park on a firm, level surface to
prevent the motorcycle from falling. This
is particularly important when parking
off-road.
When parking on a hill, always park
facing uphill to prevent the motorcycle
from rolling off the stand. Engage first
gear to prevent the motorcycle from
moving.
On a lateral (sideways) incline, always
park such that the incline naturally
pushes the motorcycle towards the side
stand.
Do not park on a lateral (sideways)
incline of greater than 6° and never
park facing downhill.
Note:
•
When parking near traffic at night,
or when parking in a location where
parking lights are required by law,
leave the tail, license plate and
position lights on by turning the
ignition switch to P (PARK).
