The 2022 Triumph Bonneville T120 has 3 recalls, all centered on the same electrical defect: alternator wiring that can short circuit and overheat, creating a risk of fire or loss of control.
The wiring that runs between the alternator and the main harness connector may not be routed correctly, leaving it exposed to heat and movement that can wear through the insulation and cause a short. Prior repair attempts under an earlier recall did not fully resolve the issue for some motorcycles, so a second repair may be required to properly address the wiring routing.
