Owners of the new Triumph Street Cup should take note of a recent recall for their motorcycle, as Triumph Motorcycles America is recalling 635 units for a wiring issue that might affect their hazard warning lights’ ability to operate.
Since a faulty hazard light system could cause the motorcycle not to be seen, especially during an emergency or hazardous situation, the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration has published this recall.
The issue stems from the fact that turning the handlebars during normal operation on the Triumph Street Cup might pull on the wiring harness, and affect the connection for the hazard signals. This may cause the hazard lights also to become disconnected from the wiring harness.
As such, Triumph will notify affected owners, and Triumph dealers will extend the wiring length by installing a supplemental harness, free of charge.
This recall is expected to begin in July 2017. Concerned Street Cup owners may contact Triumph customer service at 1-678-854-2010. Triumph’s number for this recall #549.
As always, the NHTSA is also available at 1-888-327-4236 and safercar.gov.
