Warning
Owners should be aware that the only
approved
parts,
accessories
and
conversions for any Triumph motorcycle
are those which carry official Triumph
approval and are installed to the
motorcycle by an authorized dealer.
In particular, it is extremely hazardous
to install or replace parts or
accessories whose installation requires
the dismantling of, or addition to,
either the electrical or fuel systems
and any such modification could cause
a safety hazard.
The installation of any non-approved
parts, accessories or conversions may
adversely affect the handling, stability
or other aspect of the motorcycle
operation that may result in an
accident causing injury or death.
Triumph does not accept any liability
whatsoever for defects caused by the
installation of non-approved parts,
accessories or conversions or the
installation of any approved parts,
accessories or conversions by non-
approved personnel.
Loading
Warning
Incorrect loading may result in an
unsafe riding condition leading to an
accident.
Always make sure that any loads
carried are evenly distributed on both
sides of the motorcycle. Make sure
that the load is correctly secured such
that it will not move around while the
motorcycle is in motion.
Evenly distribute the load within each
pannier. Pack heavy items at the
bottom and on the inboard side of the
pannier.
Always check the load security
regularly (though not while the
motorcycle is in motion) and make sure
that the load does not extend beyond
the rear of the motorcycle.
Never exceed the maximum vehicle
loading weight of 324 lb (147 kg).
Warning
The maximum safe load for each
pannier is 11 lb (5 kg).
Never exceed this loading limit as this
may cause the motorcycle to become
unstable leading to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
