How to install How to Install
Warning!
This shock absorber was designed for use
on Triumph Speed Triple 1050 motorcycles
only and should not be installed on any other
manufacturer’s motorcycle. Installing this
shock absorber on any other manufacturer’s
motorcycle will affect the performance, stability
and handling of the motorcycle. This may affect
the rider’s ability to control the motorcycle and
could cause an accident.
Warning!
Always have Triumph approved parts,
accessories and conversions fitted by a trained
technician of an authorised Triumph dealer. The
fitment of parts, accessories and conversions by
a technician who is not of an authorised Triumph
dealer may affect the handling, stability or other
aspects of the motorcycle’s operation which
may result in loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Warning!
Throughout this operation, ensure that the
motorcycle is stabilised and adequately
supported to prevent risk of injury from the
motorcycle falling.
1
Put the motorcycle on a workstand so that
the rear wheel barely touches the ground.
