Warning
WHEN BRAKING,
FOLLOWING:
- Close the throttle
leaving the clutch engaged to allow
the engine to help slow down the
motorcycle.
- Shift down one gear at a time such
that the transmission is in first gear
when the motorcycle comes to a
complete stop.
- When stopping, always apply both
brakes at the same time. Normally
the front brake should be applied a
little more than the rear.
- Shift down or fully disengage the
clutch as necessary to keep the
engine from stalling.
- Never lock the brakes, as this
may cause loss of control of the
motorcycle and an accident.
Warning
For emergency
down shifting, and concentrate on
applying the front and rear brakes
as hard as possible without skidding.
Riders should practice
braking in a traffic-free area.
Triumph strongly recommends that
all riders take a course of instruction,
which includes advice on safe brake
operation. Incorrect brake technique
could result in loss of control and an
accident.
