THE BRAKE SYSTEM ON THIS MOTORCYCLE IS BREMBO MASTER AND CALIPERS AND ALWAYS REQUIRES A PUMP OF THE LEVER TO PROVIDE PRESSURE. THIS SEEMS IMMUNE TO BLEEDING AS IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE CALIPER PISTONS. TRIUMPH IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT HAS NO REMEDY FOR THE ISSUE OTHER THAN CONTINUING TO BLEED THE SYSTEM IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX THE ISSUE TO NO AVAIL. THIS IS CONCERNING AS EMERGENCY BRAKING REQUIRES A FIRM LEVER ON THE FIRST PULL WHICH IS NOT POSSIBLE CURRENTLY.
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.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
