It certainly makes you think why the problems and why triumph cannot sort it out, maybe they think the more people that go for aftermarket parts, the less they'll stop winging at them.



Why they can't sort it out.....because it's not all of them. If it was, there'd be a common cause and that they could answer.

I've been waiting for someone to say that it's riding style. If it was I'd have had problems with the 03.

But people not going in with warranty issues, that will extend the problems. If they don't realise how many people are having problems with the rotors they won't look (even more) seriously than they are. They changed mine, no problems, and I suspect they would again, if once I start riding again it's going. Having spoken directly to the Warranty Dept at Hinckley then I know that they are taking this seriously.

Think about it. If someone had an accident and it could be investigated that and found the brakes were the cause then it would do their reputation so much damage... No one would ever buy a Triumph again. Yeah they don't make the disks, but who does? I don't know, but someone on here may. But that won't be the name that gets splashed across the news networks, and in the magazines, it'll be Triumph.

I know having a bike off the road can be a pain - you are not all as lucky as me to have a Thruxton at your disposal -but it's for everyone else who gets problems in the future to get your rotors changed now. Even if you are looking to go floating in the future.

Sorry Lecture over.
