Warning
Continued
If fuel is spilled, thoroughly clean up
the spillage immediately and dispose of
the materials used safely.
Take care not to spill any fuel on the
engine, exhaust pipes, tires or any
other part of the motorcycle.
Because fuel is highly flammable, any
fuel leak or spillage, or any failure to
observe the safety advice given above
may lead to a fire hazard, which could
cause damage to property and injury
or death to persons.
Fuel spilled near to, or onto the tires
will reduce the tire's ability to grip the
road. This will result in a dangerous
riding condition potentially causing
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Handlebar Adjustment
The handlebars are adjustable for reach
by approximately 0.78 in (20 mm).
Warning
It is recommended to have handlebar
adjustments carried out by a trained
technician of an authorized Triumph
dealer. Handlebar adjustments carried
out by a technician who is not of an
authorized Triumph dealer may affect
the handling, stability or other aspects
of the motorcycle's operation which
may result in loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
Before starting work, ensure the
motorcycle is stabilized and adequately
supported. This will help prevent injury
to the operator or damage to the
motorcycle.
Note:
•
This
procedure
assumes
the
handlebars are in the standard
position, as delivered from the
factory. If the handlebars have
already been adjusted as described
below, the fastener positions will be
reversed.
To adjust the handlebars, loosen and
remove the handlebar rear (0.31 in (8
mm) threaded) clamp fasteners, and
then the front (0.39 in (10 mm) threaded)
clamp and riser fasteners.
