How to Ride the Motorcycle
Braking
1. Front brake lever
1. Rear brake pedal
Triumph strongly recommends that all riders
take a course of instruction, which includes
advice on safe brake operation.
Warning
WHEN BRAKING, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
Close the throttle completely, 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 braking, disregard
downshifting, and concentrate on applying
the front and rear brakes as hard as
possible without skidding. Riders should
practice emergency braking in a traffic-free
area. (See ABS warnings below/over.)
Incorrect brake technique could result in
loss of control and an accident.
