Throttle Control
Warning
Always be alert for changes in the 'feel' of
the throttle control and have the throttle
system checked by an authorised Triumph
dealer if any changes are detected.
Changes can be due to wear in the
mechanism, which could lead to a sticking
throttle control.
A sticking or stuck throttle control will lead
to loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Inspection
Warning
Use of the motorcycle with a sticking or
damaged throttle control will interfere with
the throttle function resulting in loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
To avoid continued use of a sticking or
damaged throttle control, always have it
checked by your authorised Triumph
dealer.
Check that the throttle opens smoothly,
without undue force and that it closes without
sticking. Have your authorised Triumph
dealer check the throttle system if a problem
is detected or any doubt exists.
Check that there is 1 - 2 mm of throttle grip
free play when lightly turning the throttle grip
back and forth.
If there is an incorrect amount of free play,
Triumph recommends that you have your
authorised Triumph dealer investigate.

Clutch Fluid Level Inspection and
Adjustment
Warning
Use only DOT 4 specification brake and
clutch fluid as listed in the Specification
section of this handbook. The use of brake
and clutch fluids other than those DOT 4
fluids listed in the Specification section may
reduce the efficiency of the clutch system
leading to an accident.
Failure to change the brake and clutch fluid
at the interval specified in the scheduled
maintenance chart may reduce clutch
efficiency resulting in an accident.
Inspect the level of brake and clutch fluid in
the reservoir and change the fluid in
accordance with the scheduled maintenance
requirements. Use only DOT 4 fluid as
recommended in the Specification section.
The brake and clutch fluid must also be
changed if it becomes, or is suspected of
having become contaminated with moisture
or any other contaminates.
