Problem: Triumph Motorcycles America Ltd (Triumph) is recalling certain model year 2013 Trophy SE motorcycles manufactured June 1, 2012, through February 28, 2013. In the affected motorcycles, the left hand center stand mount may fracture.
Risk: If the center mount fractures, it will not provide adequate support for the center stand while the vehicle is parked and may cause the motorcycle to fall over, increasing the risk of injury to those nearby.
Fix: Triumph will notify owners, and dealers will install a new center stand bracket to the left hand side of the motorcycle frame. The recall is expected to begin during January 2014. Customers may contact Triumph at 1-678-854-2010. Triumph's number for this recall is SB508RM2013/033.

Recent owner complaints

Electrical system
BIKE SHUTS OFF OCCASIONALLY WHEN THE STEERING IS PUSHED HARD TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL ON SEVERAL OWNER FORUMS AND IS CAUSED BY A STRETCHED IGNITION WIRE WHICH TRIUMPH WILL NOT PROVIDE A REPAIR FOR UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN SINCE THE BIKE SHUTS OFF WHEN TURNING.
