The short version

TRIUMPH MOTORCYCLES AMERICA LTD reported a problem with the equipment. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

THESE MOTORCYCLES WERE BUILT WITH AN INCOMPATIBLE THREAD LOCKER/SCREW COMBINATION AT THE FRONT FENDER MOUNTING.

WHY IT MATTERS

THE SCREWS MAY WORK LOOSE AND THE SCREW HEADS CAN CONTACT THE SIDE WALL OF THE FRONT TIRE, LEADING TO TIRE DEFLATION, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

WHAT TO DO

DEALERS WILL INSTALL NEW SCREWS, FREE OF CHARGE.
