Triumph recalls more than 1,100 motorcycles

Triumph Motorcycle America is recalling up to 1,186 units of the model year 2012-2013 Explorer and Explorer XC motorcycles due to installation of incorrect Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GCWR) labels.

By failing to comply with certification requirements, the incorrect label could cause the operator to overload the motorcycle, which may result in handling issues and/or tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

Triumph will notify owners and replace the labels with corrected GVWR data free of charge. A schedule for notification is not yet available.
