Triumph Street Triple: Stability May Be Lost

Triumph is recalling 538 Street Triple motorcycles because a seal in the rear suspension unit (RSU) may fail, causing oil and gas to leak out. This leakage can reduce the suspension's performance and potentially contaminate the tire, which could affect the motorcycle's stability. The manufacturer will replace the RSU with a new component.
