Title: Safety Recall
Post by: PeteH on March 29, 2011, 12:52:55 AM
So, Triumph have just realised that there`s an issue with the male quick release fuel connectors on the first girlies.

Had my invite through the post today requesting my co-operation to ensure the bike is modified without delay and to book it in at a dealer.

I have`nt had any issues with the connections, and have`nt  personally taken the tank off, but once the mods done I`ll feel more confident things wont go pear shaped if I do, Hmmm, feel an air box mod coming on.

Female,they recalled the male years ago!!!,maybe it's a recall of a recall.

Well I laughed when mine came through the post  :evil: not,their a f*****g liability any one with a bike that old and not done anything about themselves is dancing with the devil,mine broke while we were on it with a full tank of fuel must be 3/4 years ago,it was only when my foot slipped off the gear lever and then realised 'Oh shit' :shock:

But I'll potter down to my Triumph dealer for the part to put in my tool box and at least they'll make a crumb by booking it.

Just been into town to the Triumph dealer,no idea!! he seems to think it's the male!!,which was done on a recall years ago,and the reality is,it should be the females.

Give me the parts,I'll do it.
Oh no sir,bring the bike in we'll do it

I tell him the originals were plastic and changed to aluminium,we'll send you details off sir  :roll:
