Old Member- new bike!

Hello again,

after snooping here rather passive for some time I took the plunge yesterday and got a 2015 in beautiful blue. I currently live in Marin county, north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Happy to be here, looking forward to measure some of the NorCal twisties.

Cheers to that!

Hi fluxxcomp and to the Club !

Have you checked that you have the latest Audio Software version,
and that the Ignition Wiring Safety Recall inspection has been done ?

@coconut: I called the Triumph dealer nearby and had him check the VIN: the recall inspection is still pending. how critical is this? Can I at least do a test ride? I rerad about the Audio SW draining the battery earlier, I will check for that now.

Is there a way to lookup the Service history? the check book was not stamped, doe this mean the pre-owner did a self-service? (I may jus open another thread in the service corner).


Thanks to the Community.

Any Service carried out by a Triumph Dealer should be recorded on their electronic system,
which is usually done, and also recorded by the Dealer in the Owner's  Service Booklet ,
which is often NOT done !

If you ask yoru local Dealer they should be able to look up the Service History
for you and probably print you a copy.

With regards to the Safety Recall Inspection, it is not mandated
as a "Do not ride" until completed recall. 

The consequences however are that the Ignition could unexpectedly switch off
causing the engine to stop running - which could be disastrous on a Bend or during
an overtake, so I would be very wary until the Inspection has been carried out.
