Safety First

SAFETY FIRST

The Motorcycle

Warning

This motorcycle is designed for on-

road use only. It is not suitable for off-

road use.

Off-road operation could lead to loss of

control of the motorcycle resulting in

an accident causing injury or loss of

life.

Warning

This motorcycle is not designed to tow

a trailer or be fitted with a sidecar.

Fitting a sidecar and/or a trailer may

result in loss of control and an

accident.

Warning

Bonneville Bobber Black and Bonneville

Bobber

This motorcycle is designed for use

as a two-wheeled vehicle capable of

carrying a rider on his/her own.

Operation of this motorcycle with a

passenger is dangerous and could lead

to loss of control and an accident.

The total weight of the rider, accessories

and luggage must not exceed the

maximum load limit of 125 kg (275 lb).

Warning

Bonneville Speedmaster

This motorcycle is designed for use as

a two-wheeled vehicle capable of

carrying a rider on his/her own, or a

rider and one passenger (subject to a

passenger seat, passenger handhold

and footrests being fitted).

The total weight of the rider, accessories,

luggage and passenger must not exceed

the maximum load limit of 210 kg (463 lb).

Fuel and Exhaust Fumes

Warning

PETROL IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE:

Always turn off the engine when

refuelling.

Do not refuel or open the fuel filler cap

while smoking or in the vicinity of any

open (naked) flame.

Take care not to spill any petrol on the

engine, exhaust pipes or silencers

when refuelling.

If petrol is swallowed, inhaled or

allowed to get into the eyes, seek

immediate medical attention.

Spillage on the skin should be

immediately washed off with soap and

water and clothing contaminated with

petrol should immediately be removed.

Burns and other serious skin conditions

may result from contact with petrol.

Safety First

Warning

Never start your engine or let it run for

any length of time in a closed area.

The exhaust fumes are poisonous and

may cause loss of consciousness and

death within a short time.

Always operate your motorcycle in the

open-air or in an area with adequate

ventilation.

Helmet and Clothing

Warning

cbma

When riding the motorcycle, both rider

and passenger (on models where

carrying a passenger is permitted)

must always wear a motorcycle helmet,

eye protection, gloves, boots, trousers

(close fitting around the knee and

ankle) and a brightly coloured jacket.

Brightly coloured clothing will consider-

ably increase a rider's (or passenger's)

visibility to other operators of road

vehicles.

Although full protection is not possible,

wearing correct protective clothing can

reduce the risk of injury when riding.

Warning

A helmet is one of the most important

pieces of riding gear as it offers

protection against head injuries. You

and your passenger's helmet should

be carefully chosen and should fit you

or your passenger's head comfortably

and securely. A brightly coloured helmet

will increase a rider's (or passenger's)

visibility to other operators of road

vehicles.

An open face helmet offers some

protection in an accident though a full

face helmet will offer more.

Always wear a visor or approved

goggles to help vision and to protect

your eyes.

Safety First

Parking

Warning

Always switch off the engine and

remove the ignition key before leaving

the motorcycle unattended. By

removing the key, the risk of use of

the motorcycle by unauthorised or

untrained persons is reduced.

When parking the motorcycle, always

remember the following:

- Engage first gear to help prevent the

motorcycle from rolling off the stand.

- The engine and exhaust system will

be hot after riding. DO NOT park where

pedestrians, animals and/or children

are likely to touch the motorcycle.

- Do not park on soft ground or on a

steeply inclined surface. Parking under

these conditions may cause the

motorcycle to fall over.

For further details, please refer to the

'How to Ride the Motorcycle' section of

this Owner’s Handbook.

Parts and Accessories

Warning

Owners should be aware that the

only approved parts, accessories and

conversions for any Triumph motorcycle

are those which carry official Triumph

approval and are fitted to the

motorcycle by an authorised dealer.

In particular, it is extremely hazardous

to fit or replace parts or accessories

whose fitting requires the dismantling

of, or addition to, either the electrical

or fuel systems and any such

modification could cause a safety

hazard.

The fitting of any non-approved parts,

accessories or conversions may

adversely affect the handling, stability

or other aspect of the motorcycle

operation that may result in an

accident causing injury or death.

Triumph does not accept any liability

whatsoever for defects caused by

the fitting of non-approved parts,

accessories or conversions or the fitting

of any approved parts, accessories or

conversions by non-approved personnel.

Safety First

Maintenance/Equipment

Warning

Consult your authorised Triumph dealer

whenever there is doubt as to the

correct or safe operation of this

Triumph motorcycle.

Remember that continued operation of

an incorrectly performing motorcycle

may aggravate a fault and may also

compromise safety.

Warning

Ensure all equipment that is required

by law is installed and functioning

correctly. The removal or alteration

of the motorcycle’s lights, silencers,

emission or noise control systems can

violate the law. Incorrect or improper

modification may adversely affect the

handling, stability or other aspect of

the motorcycle operation, which may

result in an accident causing injury or

death.

Warning

If the motorcycle is involved in an

accident, collision or fall, it must be

taken to an authorised Triumph dealer

for inspection and repair. Any accident

can cause damage to the motorcycle

that, if not correctly repaired, may

cause a second accident that may

result in injury or death.

Riding

Warning

Never ride the motorcycle when

fatigued or under the influence of

alcohol or other drugs.

Riding when under the influence of

alcohol or other drugs is illegal.

Riding when fatigued or under the

influence of alcohol or other drugs

reduces the rider's ability to maintain

control of the motorcycle and may lead

to loss of control and an accident.

Warning

All riders must be licenced to operate

the motorcycle. Operation of the

motorcycle without a licence is illegal

and could lead to prosecution.

Operation of the motorcycle without

formal training in the correct riding

techniques that are necessary to

become licenced is dangerous and may

lead to loss of motorcycle control and

an accident.

Warning

Always ride defensively and wear

the protective equipment mentioned

elsewhere in this foreword. Remember,

in an accident, a motorcycle does not

give the same impact protection as a

car.

Safety First

Warning

This Triumph motorcycle should be

operated within the legal speed limits

for the particular road travelled.

Operating a motorcycle at high speeds

can be potentially dangerous since the

time available to react to given traffic

situations is greatly reduced as road

speed increases. Always reduce speed

in potentially hazardous driving

conditions such as bad weather or

heavy traffic.

Warning

Continually observe and react to

changes in road surface, traffic and

wind conditions. All two-wheeled

vehicles are subject to external forces

which may cause an accident. These

forces include but are not limited to:

- Wind draft from passing vehicles

- Potholes, uneven or damaged road

surfaces

- Bad weather

- Rider error.

Always operate the motorcycle at

moderate speed and away from heavy

traffic until you have become

thoroughly familiar with its handling

and operating characteristics. Never

exceed the legal speed limit.

Handlebars and Footrests

Warning

The rider must maintain control of the

vehicle by keeping hands on the

handlebars at all times.

The handling and stability of a

motorcycle will be adversely affected if

the rider removes their hands from the

handlebars, resulting in loss of

motorcycle control and an accident.

Warning

The rider (and Bonneville Speedmaster

passenger) must always use the

footrests provided, during operation of

the vehicle.

By using the footrests, the rider will

reduce the risk of inadvertent contact

with any motorcycle components and

will also reduce the risk of injury from

entrapment of clothing.
