What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
I was riding my triumph street triple motorcycle on the highway when the bike just suddenly shut off. I lost all power and the bike would not restart. I tried to quickly change lanes to get to the shoulder, but was unable to get out of the flow of traffic. I was hit from behind by a car.
The turn signal stem on the left rear of the motorcycle has broken/ fractured. There have been recalls on the same model of motorcycle for this same exact issue in 2012 and 2013 yet this year had no recall. I tried to reason with triumph with no success.
The contact stated that the electrical system would not charge the battery and he was concerned that the vehicle would suddenly stall. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who advised that the vehicle would be repaired under warranty.
2009 triumph street triple throttle play. There seems to be some slack or binding on the throttle cable that makes the throttle open abruptly causing a dangerous situation.
