Installing the shim by force will prevent the centre stand
from retracting fully, or may result in damage to the
frame or centre stand. Riding the motorcycle with a
centre stand which does not retract fully, or with a
damaged frame or centre stand, may interfere with the
rider and could affect the stability or other aspects of the
motorcycle’s operation which may result in loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.

Warning
After fitting the accessory kit the motorcycle will exhibit
new handling characteristics. Operate the motorcycle in
a safe area free from traffic to gain familiarity with any
new handling characteristics. Operation of the
motorcycle when not familiar with any new handling
characteristics may result in loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
Warning
Never ride an accessory equipped motorcycle (including
those fitted with Triumph approved windscreens and
luggage systems) at speeds above 80 mph (130 km/h).
The presence of accessories such as windscreens and
luggage systems will cause changes in the stability and
handling of the motorcycle. Failure to allow for changes
in motorcycle stability may lead to loss of control or an
accident.
Remember that the 80 mph (130 km/h) limit will be
reduced by the fitting of non-approved accessories,
incorrect loading, worn tyres, overall motorcycle
condition and poor road or weather conditions.
Warning
If, after fitment of this accessory kit, you have any doubt
about the performance of any aspect of the motorcycle,
contact an authorised Triumph dealer and do not ride
the motorcycle until the authorised dealer has declared
it fit for use. Riding a motorcycle when there is any
doubt as to any aspect of the performance of the
motorcycle may result in loss of control of the
motorcycle leading to an accident.
Warning
This motorcycle must not be operated above the legal
road speed limit except in authorised closed course
conditions.
Warning
Only operate this Triumph motorcycle at high speed in
closed course, on-road competition or on closed course
racetracks. High speed operation should only be
attempted by riders who have been instructed in the
techniques necessary for high speed riding and are
familiar with the motorcycle’s characteristics in all
conditions.
High speed operation in any other circumstances is
dangerous and will lead to loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
