Accessories And Loading - Triumph Street Triple Owner's Handbook Manual

ACCESSORIES AND LOADING

The addition of accessories and carriage of
additional weight can affect the motorcycle's
handling characteristics causing changes in
stability and necessitating a reduction in
speed. The following information has been
prepared as a guide to the potential hazards
of adding accessories to a motorcycle and
carrying passengers and additional loads.
Warning
Incorrect loading may result in an unsafe
riding condition leading to an accident.
Always ensure any loads carried are evenly
distributed on both sides of the motorcycle.
Ensure that the load is correctly secured
such that it will not move around while the
motorcycle is in motion.
Always check the load security regularly
(though not while the motorcycle is in
motion) and ensure that the load does not
extend beyond the rear of the motorcycle.
Never exceed the maximum vehicle
loading weight of 195 kg.
This maximum loading weight is made up
from the combined weight of the rider,
passenger, any accessories fitted and any
load carried.
