Side Cover (All Models Except Scrambler) - Triumph Bonneville Handbook

General Information
Warning
Overfilling the tank can lead to fuel
spillage.
If petrol (fuel) is spilled, thoroughly wipe off
the spilled fuel immediately and dispose of
the cleaning cloth safely.
Take care not to spill any petrol (fuel) on
the engine, exhaust pipes, tyres or any
other part of the motorcycle.
Because petrol (fuel) is highly flammable,
any fuel leak or spillage, or any failure to
observe the safety advice given above will
lead to a fire hazard which could cause
damage to property, injury to persons or
death.
Petrol (fuel) spilled near to or on the tyres
will reduce the tyre's ability to grip the
road. This will result in a dangerous riding
condition causing loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
