General Information

Traction Control (TC)
Warning
The traction control and optimised
cornering traction control systems
are not a substitute for riding
appropriately for the prevailing
surface and weather conditions.
The systems cannot prevent loss of
traction due to:
- excessive speed when entering turns
- accelerating at a sharp lean angle
- braking.
Traction control or optimised cornering
traction control cannot prevent the
front wheel from slipping.
Failure to observe any of the above
may result in loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
If the traction control system is not
functioning, care must be taken when
accelerating and cornering on wet/
slippery road surfaces to avoid rear
wheel spin.
In the event of a fault, the traction
control disabled warning light may
be accompanied by the engine
management system malfunction
indicator light and/or the ABS warning
light.
Do not continue to ride for longer than
is necessary with any of the above
warning lights illuminated. Contact an
authorised Triumph dealer as soon as
possible to have the fault checked and
rectified.
Warning
Continued
Hard acceleration and cornering in this
situation may cause the rear wheel
to spin resulting in loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
All motorcycles are equipped with
Traction Control (TC). Traction control is
a system that helps to maintain traction
when accelerating on wet/slippery road
surfaces. If sensors detect that the rear
wheel is losing traction (slipping), the
traction control system will engage and
alter the engine power until traction to
the rear wheel has been restored. The
traction control indicator light will flash
while it is engaged and a change to the
sound of the engine may be noticed.
For information on the traction control
indicator light operation, see page 39.
Note
Traction control may not always be
active depending on the riding mode
selected.
Traction control and optimised cornering
traction control (if fitted) may not
function if there is a malfunction with
the ABS system. In this situation, the
warning lights for the ABS, traction
control and the MIL may be illuminated.
