Triumph recall: Electrical system
What is wrong
Triumph Motorcycles America, LTD. (Triumph) is recalling certain model year 2016 Street Twin motorcycles manufactured September 7, 2015, to November 21, 2015. The wiring in the fuel tank that powers the fuel pump may have damaged insulation and, as a result, fuel may enter the wiring and travel down the harness, outside of the tank and drip from the connector at the main harness.
What could happen
A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source such as an electrical short, increases the risk of a fire.
The fix
Triumph will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the fuel pump harness and replace it as needed, based on its batch number, free of charge. The recall began April 2016. Owners may contact Triumph customer service at 1-678-854-2010.
