Windshield Cleaning
(if equipped)
Warning
Never attempt to clean the windshield
while the motorcycle is in motion as
releasing the handlebars may cause
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Operation of the motorcycle with a
damaged or scratched windshield will
reduce the rider's forward vision. Any
such reduction in forward vision is
dangerous and may lead to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Caution
Corrosive chemicals such as battery
acid will damage the windshield. Never
allow corrosive chemicals to contact
the windshield.
Caution
Products such as window cleaning
fluids, insect remover, rain repellent,
scouring compounds, gasoline or
strong solvents such as alcohol,
acetone, carbon tetrachloride, etc. will
damage the windshield.
Never allow these products to contact
the windshield.
Clean the windshield with a solution of
mild soap or detergent and cold water.
After cleaning, rinse well and then dry
with a soft, lint-free cloth.
If the transparency of the windshield is
reduced by scratches or oxidation which
cannot be removed, the windshield must
be replaced.
Care of Leather Products
We recommend that you periodically
clean your leather products with a
damp cloth and allow them to dry
naturally at room temperature. This will
maintain the appearance of the leather
and ensure the long life of your product.
Your Triumph leather product is a
natural product and lack of care can
result in damage and permanent wear.
Follow these simple instructions and
give your leather product the respect it
deserves:
• Do not use household cleaning
products,
bleach,
detergents
containing bleach or any kind of
solvent to clean your leather
product.
• Do not immerse your leather
product in water.
• Avoid direct heat from fires and
radiators which can dry out and
distort the leather.
• Do not leave your leather product
in direct sunlight for prolonged
periods of time.
• Do not dry your leather product by
applying direct heat to it at any
time.
• If your leather product does get
wet, absorb any excess water with
a soft clean cloth then leave the
product to dry naturally at room
temperature.
