“I have had 3 side stand springs fail during this calendar year 2020, in less than 3,000 total miles. 2 of the failed springs have been upgraded parts from a Triumph internal safety bulletin replacement. This last spring failed 900 miles after it was installed only a month and a half ago. All installations were done by the authorized Triumph dealership. All 3 of the spring failures occurred at freeway speeds, top gear, in traffic - when it fails, it activates a kill switch that cuts power to the motor, leaving me in highway traffic at speed with a non-responsive motorcycle. …”
