Problem: Triumph is recalling 87 my 2008-2009 thruxton motorcycles. The installed front brake caliper bracket bolts may be too short, reducing thread engagement of the bolts into the brake caliper bracket.

Risk: The brake caliper may become loose or separated resulting in reduced brake effectiveness, loss control of the motorcycle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Triumph will replace these bolts. The recall began on december 12, 2008. Owners may contact triumph at 1-678-539-8782.
