TRIUMPH SPEED TWIN (2018–2019)
What the hazard is
If the coolant hose is damaged, it may lead to a loss of coolant in the area of the rear tyre. The rear tyre may lose traction without warning, resulting in an accident and causing serious injury to the rider and other road users.
What to do
Consumers should make an appointment with an authorised Triumph Dealer as soon as possible to have their motorcycle inspected, and if necessary, repaired free of charge. For help finding a Triumph Dealer, consumers can go to http://www.triumphmotorcycles.com.au/dealers/find-a-dealer
Defect
The coolant hose between the radiator and expansion tank may have been misrouted during assembly. A misrouted hose may come into contact with the exhaust header pipe, potentially causing damage to the coolant hose.
