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
149
.
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 XR
X
– 219 kg (483 lb)
Tiger XC
X
– 217 kg (478 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.
