Where To Be Careful - Triumph Street Triple S Owner's Handbook Manual

Where to be Careful

Do not use high pressure spray
washers or steam cleaners.
Use of high pressure spray washers
and steam cleaners may damage seals,
and cause water and steam to be
forced into bearings
components causing premature wear
from corrosion and loss of lubrication.
Do not spray any water at all near the
air intake duct.
The air intake duct is normally located
under the rider's seat, under the fuel
tank or near the steering head.
Any water sprayed in this area could
enter the airbox and engine, causing
damage to both items.
Do not get water near the following
places:
• Air intake duct
• Any visible electrical components
• Brake cylinders and brake calipers
• Handlebar switch housings
• Steering head bearings
• Instruments
• Oil filler cap
• Rear bevel box breather (if equipped)
• Rear of headlights
• Seats
• Suspension seals and bearings
• Under the fuel tank

Note
Use of soaps that are highly alkaline will
leave a residue on painted surfaces, and
may also cause water spotting.
Always use a low alkaline soap to aid
the cleaning process.
