Warped Disks

I have raised the issue of warped disks on the forum in the ST section.

It appears that warped disks are a problem through the Triumph range.

I have heard a number of suggestions about what to do, however, nothing from Triumph other than refusal to consider replacement for a faulty product.

I find it difficult to accept that they design a product such as brake disks to only last a few thousand Ks.

Equally, I find it difficult to accept that Triumph riders accept the problem by rationalising it to wear out of the disk. When was the last or first time you heard of a car with a warped disk. Come to think of it, when did you hear of a Honda rider saying the same thing.

I remain committed and a disappointed Triumph owner. Not so sure my next bike will be a Triumph.
