Front Suspension Setting Charts
Warning
Make sure that the correct balance
between front and rear suspension is
maintained.
Suspension imbalance could
significantly change handling
characteristics leading to loss of
control and an accident.
Refer to the front and rear suspension
setting charts for further information
or consult your Triumph dealer.
The motorcycle is delivered from the
factory with the front suspension set at
the Solo (normal) riding setting, as
shown in the relevant front suspension
setting chart. The Solo suspension
settings provide a comfortable ride and
good handling characteristics for
general, solo riding.
The suspension settings charts show
suggested settings for the front
suspension and are only a guide. Setting
requirements may vary for rider weight
and personal preferences.
