TRIUMPH BONNEVILLE
What the hazard is
This presents an increased risk of a loss of control and vehicle crash.
What to do
Consumers should contact their nearest authorised Triumph motorcycles dealer to arrange for the inspection and repair of their motorcycle.
Defect
The air-gap between the end of the throttle twist grip rubber and the handlebar end weight on heated handlebar grips may be too small. This could cause the grip (when heated) to expand beyond its air-gap and make contact with the handle bar end weight. If this occurs, the throttle will no longer return as intended to its positive stop via spring force only, but will require some manual intervention to close the throttle.
