Defect summary

Triumph Motorcycles (Triumph) is recalling certain model year 2012 Street Triple motorcycles manufactured from June 2012 through November 2012; and model year 2012 Daytona 675 motorcycles manufactured July 2012 through October 2012. The motorcycles may have been assembled without a guide for the throttle cables.

Consequence

Without the guide, the cables may move freely and become trapped in the steering stop, impeding the steering operation and affecting the driver's ability to control the motorcycle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Triumph will notify owners, and dealers will install a throttle cable guide free of charge. The recall began on May 30, 2013. Owners may contact Triumph at 1-678-854-2010 for more information.
