Riding
Warning
Never ride the motorcycle when
fatigued or under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs.
Riding when under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs is illegal.
Riding when fatigued or under the
influence of alcohol or other drugs
reduces the rider's ability to maintain
control of the motorcycle and may
lead to loss of control and an accident.
Warning
All riders must be licenced to operate
the motorcycle.
Operation of the motorcycle without
a licence is illegal and could lead to
prosecution.
Operation of the motorcycle without
formal training in the correct riding
techniques that are necessary to
become licenced is dangerous and may
lead to loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
Warning
Always ride defensively and wear
the protective equipment mentioned
elsewhere in this foreword.
Remember, in an accident, a
motorcycle does not give the same
impact protection as a car.
Warning
This Triumph motorcycle should be
operated within the legal speed limits
for the particular road travelled.
Operating a motorcycle at high speeds
can be potentially dangerous since the
time available to react to given traffic
situations is greatly reduced as road
speed increases.
Always reduce speed in potentially
hazardous driving conditions such as
bad weather or heavy traffic.
Warning
Continually observe and react to
changes in road surface, traffic and
wind conditions. All two-wheeled
vehicles are subject to external forces
which may cause an accident. These
forces include but are not limited to:
- Wind draft from passing vehicles
- Potholes, uneven or damaged road
surfaces
- Bad weather
- Rider error.
Always operate the motorcycle at
moderate speed and away from
heavy traffic until you have become
thoroughly familiar with its handling
and operating characteristics. Never
exceed the legal speed limit.
