Why it matters: As a result of the incorrect spring, the transmission may inadvertently shift out of gear while the motorcycle is moving, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Triumph will notify owners, and dealers will install a revised detent spring, free of charge. The recall began on June , 17 2013.
