Recall notice

[Tankman]

Hi all, just recieved a recall notice for the drag link to top link bolt, sleeve and nut. They reackon it will take about an hour to do the job. It also states the recall is being monitored bk the Federal Office of Road Safety. The only concern I have is that the letter was dated the 12 Jan 2007?????.

Yep sure looks like it.

I guess we know the timeframe for this one.

29 Aug 06 Reported to dealer and Triumph Aus.
?? Sep 06 Failed bolt sent to Triumph Aus, then to UK for analysis.
7 Dec 06 Official recall on UK and US websites
12 Jan 07 Recall letters to Oz riders (but received on 9th Jan - ***???)
10 Jan 07 still no notice under service bulletins on Triumph Aus website.

Got my letter yesterday as well. It's only because of this web site that I knew about the recall and have my parts on back order.

Still toying with the idea of following up on the front brake issue as well, but plan to leave it a while till I know the dealer has heard about it.

Russ,
my bikes been booked in to have the recall done for about a week. Tommorrow she is off to my dealer, and he is giving me a Rocket for the day. As yet, no word on the front brakes but mine seem ok for now but if they are giving away new ones I'll take them.

Thats a good deal you give them a ST and you get a rocket for the day. Would love to have one for the day just I could real take it for a real test ride.

My bike in the shop as well and the City Coast Rat Pack have got a ride day this Sunday and they are going to give me the Daytona 675 from Saturday arvo until Monday morning :-D . So we are both going to be happy campers

Lucky guys. A Rocket and a 675.

Not bikes that I would like to keep for ever but fantastic for the day.

I wish mine had to have warranty work.
..... hold on.... no I don't.

You will both have to give us reports... Good luck.

Tankman, you've got a ***** good dealer. Mine didn't have the parts and had no word when they would be available the week before Xmas. Assuming my S3 test ride goes ok on Fri I won't be worry about this particular recall any longer :-)

*****, I'd love a day on the Rocket and the 675 as well.

Det hoping to see you on Sun at Albion Pk. Will confirm Sat if I'm coming so ya know to wait for me to do the 130k to the ride starting point! :-)
