Triumph is recalling aftermarket Quickshifter Kits for Speed Triple S motorcycles because the assembly may interfere with gear changes, increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The defect poses a risk of harm (crash) due to loss of acceleration, but the source text does not report any specific injuries or fatalities, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Triumph Motorcycles America, LTD is recalling certain accessory Quickshifter Kits, part number A9934069, sold for aftermarket installation on Speed Triple S motorcycles. The recall involves 6 units.
