THE NYLON/PLASTIC FUEL TANK HAS STARTED TO SHOW SIGNS OF WARPING AND DEFORMATION. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HIGHLY SPECULATED TO BE CAUSED BY PHASE SEPARATION/E10 FUEL RELATED CAUSES WHICH ATTRACT ENVIRONMENTAL MOISTURE INTO THE FUEL AND TANK AND ULTIMATELY CAUSE DEFORMATION. 2008+ VERSIONS OF THE TRIUMPH SPEED TRIPLE NOW COME EQUIPPED WITH A METAL FUEL TANK WITH WHICH THIS IS NO LONGER AN ISSUE. UNFORTUNATELY THAT DOESN'T HELP ME WITH THE PROBLEMS I AM EXPERIENCING. *TR

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
