General Information
Triumph Traction Control
(TTC)
Triumph Traction Control helps to maintain
traction when accelerating on wet/slippery
road surfaces. If sensors detect that the rear
wheel is losing traction (slipping), the traction
control system will engage and alter the
engine power until traction to the rear wheel
has been restored. The traction control
warning light will flash while it is engaged
and the rider may notice a change to the
sound of the engine.
Note:
• Traction control will not function if
there is a malfunction with the ABS
system. The warning lights for the
ABS, traction control and the MIL
will be illuminated.
Triumph Traction Control Settings
The Triumph Traction Control can be set to
one of the following conditions:
• ON - the traction control will engage to
control rear wheel slip;
The warning light will be off but will flash
on and off when the traction control is
working to limit the rear wheel slipping;
• OFF - traction control is disabled and the
warning light is constantly on.
Traction control will be enabled again
when the ignition is turned off and then
on.
To access the TTC settings, see
ADJUSTMENT on page 42.
Triumph Traction Control is not a substitute
for riding appropriately for the prevailing
road and weather conditions. The traction
control cannot prevent loss of traction due
to:
• excessive speed when entering turns;
• accelerating at a sharp lean angle;
•braking.
Traction control can not prevent the front
wheel from slipping.
Failure to observe any of the above may
result in loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Do not attempt to adjust the traction
control settings while the motorcycle is in
motion as this may lead to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
If the traction control is disabled, the
motorcycle will handle as normal but
without traction control. In this situation
accelerating too hard on wet/slippery road
surfaces may cause the rear wheel to slip,
and may result in loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
