ACCESSORIES, LOADING AND PASSENGERS
The addition of accessories and carriage of
additional weight can affect the motorcycle's
handling characteristics causing changes in
stability and necessitating a reduction in
speed. The following information has been
prepared as a guide to the potential hazards
of adding accessories to a motorcycle and
carrying passengers and additional loads.
Adjust the headlight aim to compensate for
additional loads, see page

.
Warning
Incorrect loading may result in an unsafe
riding condition leading to an accident.
Always ensure any loads carried are evenly
distributed on both sides of the motorcycle.
Ensure that the load is correctly secured
such that it will not move around while the
motorcycle is in motion.
Always check the load security regularly
(though not while the motorcycle is in
motion) and ensure that the load does not
extend beyond the rear of the motorcycle.
Never exceed the maximum vehicle
loading weight of:
Tiger 800 - 225 kg (496 lb)
Tiger 800XC - 223 kg (492 lb).
This maximum loading weight is made up
from the combined weight of the rider,
passenger, any accessories fitted and any
load carried.
Warning
Do not install accessories or carry luggage
that impairs the control of the motorcycle.
Make sure that you have not adversely
affected the visibility of any lighting
component, road clearance, banking
capability (i.e. lean angle), control
operation, wheel travel, front fork
movement, visibility in any direction, or
any other aspect of the motorcycle's
operation.
Warning
This motorcycle must not be operated
above the legal road speed limit except in
authorised closed-course conditions.
Warning
Only operate this Triumph motorcycle at
high speed in closed-course on-road
competition or on closed-course racetracks.
High-speed operation should only then be
attempted by riders who have been
instructed in the techniques necessary for
high-speed riding and are familiar with the
motorcycle's characteristics in all
conditions.
High-speed operation in any other
circumstances is dangerous and will lead to
loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
