Example complaints

Engine cooling: “20 min after picking up my motorcycle from overheating repair at corsa motorsports in nyc, I noticed a little oil leaking from the bottom of my motorcycle. I promptly turned around and went back to the dealership and they stated that it was a bad sump gasket and that they would order a new one and inform me when it arrived, which they did not do.”

NHTSA complaint #10383111, filed 2011-02, 2,337 miles

Electrical system: “Less than 2 hours after picking up my Triumph tiger 1050 from trebour motorcycles and after the shop manager joe reassured me that the bike was in top-notch condition after my over heating and non starting repairs by his shop, the bike started to overheat in traffic. I was on a dangerous road without a shoulder and was luckily on a downgrade. I noticed the coolant in the reserve tank was boiling so I turned the bike off and coasted down the decline. …”

NHTSA complaint #10383147, filed 2011-02, 5,845 miles

Exterior lighting: “The factory headlights and light position on my Triumph tiger 1050 is dangerously inefficient! The lights are not positioned properly out of the factory and you can not see a safe distance in front of you. I know this is a big complaint of almost every owner of this bike and yet Triumph does nothing to rectify this problem or even acknowledge the tremendous safety issues this causes!”
