Recall 19V-133: Electrical System

Reported Feb 27, 2019 · 12,654 vehicles affected · Triumph Motorcycles America, LTD

Problem: Triumph Motorcycles America, LTD (Triumph) is recalling certain 2016-2019 Bonneville T120 and Bonneville T120 Black, 2017-2019 Bonneville T100 and T100 Black, 2017-2018 Street Cup and Street Scrambler, and 2016-2018 Street Twin motorcycles.

Fix: Triumph will notify owners, and dealers will replace the original securing guide for the clutch cable and main harness with an updated one, free of charge. The recall began March 27, 2019.

Unknown or Other · reported May 2, 2024

Kick stand spring came off of the bike. Kick stand was dragging and engine ignition was cut off by the safety switch. I lost control of the bike mid-turn d/t wheel rear drag. I did not crash d/t decades of riding experience., but did leave my traffic lane. Examination of the vehicle showed inadequate spring retention tabs that were badly worn. A Triumph forum stated others had similar experience. Crashes have resulted. The Triumph manufacturer was aware of the problem and blamed spring fatigue, but the factory had not issued a recall. Numerous Triumph motorcycles have the same kick stand…

Electrical System · reported Jun 24, 2021

My bike started to have some problems while riding, especially when turning right the engine will just cut off so I stopped riding because it was kind of scary. The bike did not start at all unless the handlebar was turned all the way to the left only, trying over and over, it looks like there is a short just like the recall. I was finally able to take the bike to the shop on my own coin, it took a bit over a week to get diagnosed and repaired which is not bad at all. I have another bike and I was not really in need of this one. My 2017 Street Cup has just over 4,000 miles, it is pristine…

Fuel/Propulsion System · at 2,087 miles · reported Sep 7, 2018

The OEM locking fuel cap does not tighten securely. I was riding at highway speed 44.8 miles and two days after filling with gasoline. The fuel cap came off and I was soaked with gasoline. Fortunately I was going fast enough the fuel did not get on the exhaust, just my clothing. Had the fuel vapors ignited from the hot exhaust, I would have been engulfed in flames and seriously injured or killed. I was going fast when this happened and the air turbulence across the open fuel tank pulled the fuel out if the tank and directly back onto my chest, face mask and pants and legs.
