The 2021 Triumph Rocket 3 R has 2 recalls, both affecting the rear brakes and both capable of significantly extending stopping distances, raising the risk of a crash.
One recall involves air that may have entered the anti-lock brake system modulator during production, which can reduce rear braking efficiency over time. The other involves the rear brake master cylinder, which can fail to move fluid through the system properly, also resulting in a longer stopping distance. Together, these two issues affect the same braking circuit and compound the importance of having the rear brake system inspected and serviced.
