There is mention of a Triumph recall in the March issue of Motorcycle Consumer News.

"Models: 2005-2008 Sprint ST 1050 and 2004-2008 Tiger 1050 Motorcycles equipped with an optional accessory luggage rack.
Numbers potentially involved: 3698
Summary: Undersized washers were used which prevents the sliding carriage from moving as intended.
Consequence: Reduced stability can occur if the motorcycle is ridden with the fitted accessory, exceeded maximum weight, and at speeds far in excess of the 80 mph limit warning, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the accessory racks for lateral movement. Those racks not displaying any movement will be repaired.
Campaign: 07V-562"

Has anyone received notification from Triumph yet?
