Triumph warning stickers

Post by duke63 »

D6, do they employ some muppet to stick these things all over the bike? they are everywhere. :D

If someone is stupid enough to need to be reminded to read the handbook to work out what they don't know, then they really should not be riding a bike...or even breathing really. :^

A whole bunch of "Don't do this, or death will ensue" advice, IIRC.

Ha ha it is the world with live in for sure, everything needs to be spelled out, but it is the culture of blame, someone sticks their finger in the chain, claims they were not highlighted to the possible problems, then sue!! LOL

If you are old enough to ride a bike. But need a sticker to tell you an exhaust is hot. There is not a lot of hope for you.

I'm afraid you get a lot of people trying it on, if everything isnt spelled out in blood and capital letters with flashing neon lights.

I'll admit it my bike still has the original safety stickers plastered all of it. I want to take them off but another part of me wants to see how long they will hold for....I can't decide which part of me to listen to...so I ignore them both and just don't look at them haha

I can’t handle any unnecessary stickers on anything. I moved into a furnished cabin for a year when I first split with the ex and all the appliances still had the big energy rating stickers all over them. First night they all came off and de-gummed the affected areas.

People that leave the flimsy plastic protector on LCD/Phone screens are put on the earth purely to piss me off :D
