Foreword - Safety First
Note:
Wobble/Weave
A weave is a relatively slow oscillation of the
rear of the motorcycle, while a wobble is a
rapid, possibly strong shaking of the
handlebar. These are related but distinct
stability problems usually caused by excessive
weight in the wrong place, or by a
mechanical problem such as worn or loose
bearings or under-inflated or unevenly worn
tires.
Your solution to both situations is the same.
Keep a firm hold on the handlebars without
locking arms or fighting the steering.
Smoothly ease off the throttle to slow
gradually. Do not apply the brakes, and do
not accelerate to try to stop the wobble or
weave. In some cases, it helps to shift your
body weight forward by leaning over the
tank.

Helmet and Clothing
Warning
Ensure that you know and respect the rules
of the road. Read and observe publications
such as 'MOTORCYCLE SAFETY', 'YOU
AND YOUR MOTORCYCLE, RIDING
TIPS' and also read and become familiar
with the contents of the MOTORCYCLE
HANDBOOK for your state.
Caution
This Triumph motorcycle is not fitted with
spark arresters. Operation in forests, brush
or grass areas may violate state and local
laws and regulations.
Warning
When riding the motorcycle, both rider
and passenger must always wear a
motorcycle helmet, eye protection, gloves,
boots, trousers (close fitting around the
knee and ankle) and a brightly colored
jacket. Brightly colored clothing will
considerably increase a rider's (or
passenger's) visibility to other operators of
road vehicles. Although full protection is
not possible, wearing correct protective
clothing can reduce the risk of injury when
riding.
