Call your dealer, The letter I got (written to the original owner) in the papers that came with my Rocket states that there is a safety recall for the VIN number range: 205267 through 216401. I called the Triumph customer service number in Georgia and was told that the previous owner took Rosie in for the repair.
I'm with Tomo: If you are out of warranty and can prove the bearing was installed backward, you will probably win. Will they compensate for your Lawyer?....good question!
My bikes in for an oil leak and received a call last week that my bike will get a new tune. It just had a new one put in 2 months ago. I figured that they were going to put the same one in but I guess not. Thanks for the heads up. Maybe it will run a little cooler with the new tune...NOT!
