FRAME, FOOTRESTS AND FIXINGS
Inspection
1.
Inspect the frame footrests and fairings for
damage, cracks, chafing and other dangerous
conditions. Check fairing and frame fixings for
security.
2.
Inspect the footrests for wear. If more than 50%
of the radiused end is worn away, the footrest
must be replaced.
Arrowed — Footrest Wear Limit
WARNING: Use of a motorcycle with
footrests worn beyond the maximum
limit will allow the motorcycle to be banked to an
unsafe angle.
Banking to an unsafe angle may cause instability,
loss of control and an accident causing injury or
death.
WARNING: If the motorcycle is involved
in an accident or collision it must be taken
to an authorised Triumph dealer for repair or
inspection.
Any accident can cause damage to the motorcycle
which, if not correctly repaired, may cause another
accident which may result in injury or death.
WARNING: The frame must not be
modified as any modification to the frame
such as welding or drilling may weaken the frame
resulting in an accident.
