Triumph recalls 2025 speed twin motorcycles over rear lighting safety concerns

A voluntary recall has been issued for 2025 Triumph Speed Twin motorcycles due to a possible issue with the rear lighting system that might not meet federal safety standards. Internal testing identified potential noncompliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108, prompting the company to take action.

An estimated 2,000 units are affected by this notice. These motorcycles were sold at authorized Triumph dealerships across the United States, with sales beginning in early 2025. While no injuries have been reported, the company is removing unsold inventory from dealerships and is coordinating with regulatory agencies to address the concern.
