Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums General Tech America - not the bike I expected :-(

That's hard when you want your new bike to be a good experience.

Did you take it back to the dealer about the stalling like we advised?

The stalling when decelerating is not normal and has nothing to do with clutch or idle speed or throttle control. Those may contribute to stalling when pulling away under load - but not decellerating. The dealer should have fixed this (under warranty of course). It sounds like you are not getting any charging as a result of a faulty connection or something has failed (R/R or stator maybe).

Don't be too disheartened. Your bike is unlikely to be taken to bits. A good auto electrician should find the fault fairly quickly. It really is a great bike. You just need to get this glitch fixed - and realize that Triumph have not always put the 'best available' parts on as OEM - they have to keep to a budget. But overall the quality is right up there.

Perhaps the alarm false alarms may be due to the low battery/charging issue also. Personally I would not bother with an alarm. I have heard to many bad reports from those who had them and got rid of them.

Cheer up mate. I think you really only have one problem that is manifesting in a few different ways.
