Reported: 2003-10-21 (October 21, 2003) · Model years: 2004
ON CERTAIN MOTORCYCLES, THE REAR BRAKE CLEVIS PIN CLIP MAY ROTATE WHILE ENGAGING THE REAR BRAKE, PREVENTING THE PEDAL FROM FULLY RETURNING THE ORIGINAL REST POSITION.
Consequence: THE REAR BRAKE COULD DRAG, CREATING EXCESSIVE HEAT OR PREMATURE BRAKE PAD WEAR, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE REAR BRAKE RETAINING CLIP. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN OCTOBER 27, 2003. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT TRIUMPH AT 1-678-854-2010.

Remedy: ALL MOTORCYCLES WERE CONTAINED AT THE U.S. WAREHOUSE AND HAVE BEEN REPAIRED.
NHTSA campaign record ↗Reported: 2004-04-07 (April 7, 2004) · Model years: 2004
ON CERTAIN MOTORCYCLES, THE FUEL CONNECTOR LINKING EACH OF THE FEED AND RETURN FUEL HOSES TO THE FUEL PUMP MOUNTING PLATE MAY FRACTURE FOLLOWING IN-SERVICE HANDLING.

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
