Check all the hose clips for tightness as there have been several incidents.....I had a puddle under my bike. There is also some complaints about paint wearing thin so get some protection for those parts. Some have had problems with the reach to the clutch lever (I had) and have fitted an adjustable set up (Triumph can install the Daytona lever or get a set of Pazzos or similar.
The front suspension is poor on high speed bumps (thats nothing to do with travelling at high speed, hitting any bumps is regarded as high speed compression as opposed to braking which gives low speed compression), this can make the front twitchy if you ride on roads that are less than smooth.
The rear shock has a recall on it for some bikes. The OEM unit is pretty poor, although it works OK to a point, start pushing on hard and it will have you out of the seat or give a gentle wallow in bends. Its all very controllable though.
Front mudguard gives little protection to the radiator, so if you frequently ride on wet, muddy roads you might want to fit an extender.
There were a couple of reports about low oil level, but you should check it as a matter of normal maintenance, same with tyres and chain etc.
