Traction Control (Tc); Traction Control Settings - Triumph Thruxton TFC 2019 Owner's Handbook Manual

Traction Control (TC)

Warning
Traction control is not a substitute for
riding appropriately for the prevailing
road and weather conditions.
The traction control cannot prevent
loss of traction due to:
- Excessive speed when entering turns
- Accelerating at a sharp lean angle
- Braking
- Traction control cannot prevent the
front wheel from slipping.
Failure to observe any of the above
may result in loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Traction control
traction when accelerating on wet/
slippery road surfaces. If sensors detect
that the rear wheel is losing traction
(slipping), the traction control system
will engage and alter the engine power
until traction to the rear wheel has been
restored. The traction control warning
light will flash while it is engaged and
the rider may notice a change to the
sound of the engine.
Note
Traction control will not function if there
is a malfunction with the ABS system.
The warning lights for the ABS, traction
control and the MIL will be illuminated.

General Information

Traction Control Settings

Warning
Do not attempt to adjust the traction
control settings while the motorcycle
is in motion as this may lead to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
If the traction control is disabled,
the motorcycle will handle as normal
but without traction control. In this
situation accelerating too hard on
wet/slippery road surfaces may cause
the rear wheel to slip, and may result
in loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Traction control defaults to ON after
the ignition has been switched OFF and
then switched ON again.
Traction control can be disabled as
described on page 36, or set to a
specific riding mode as described on
page 32.
When traction control is turned off,
the TC disabled warning light will be
illuminated (see page 26).
