Headlights - Triumph Speed Triple S Owner's Handbook Manual

Headlights

Warning
Adjust road speed to suit the visibility
and weather conditions in which the
motorcycle is being operated.
Make sure that the beams are adjusted
to illuminate the road surface suffi-
ciently far ahead without dazzling
oncoming traffic. An incorrectly adjust-
ed headlight may
causing an accident.
Warning
Never attempt to adjust a headlamp
beam when the motorcycle is in mo-
tion.
Any attempt to adjust a headlamp
beam when the motorcycle is in motion
may result in loss of control and an ac-
cident.
Caution
If the motorcycle is to be used under
closed-course conditions, you may be
asked to tape the visible outer surface
of the headlight
When taped, the headlight will over-
heat and distort the outer surface.
Therefore, to avoid headlight distortion,
always disconnect the headlights when
they are taped for use under closed-
course conditions.

Caution
Do not cover the headlight or lens with
any item likely to obstruct air flow to,
or prevent heat escaping from, the
headlight lens.
Covering the headlight lens during op-
eration with items of clothing, luggage,
adhesive tape, devices intended to al-
ter or adjust the headlight beam or
non genuine headlight lens covers will
cause the headlight lens to overheat
and distort, causing irreparable dam-
age to the headlight assembly.
Damage caused by overheating is not
considered a manufacturing defect and
will not be covered under warranty.
If the headlight must be covered dur-
ing use, such as the taping of the
headlight lens required during closed-
course conditions, the headlight must
be disconnected.
