An official CAA Japan notice concerns Motorcycle (Triumph Bonneville T120 and 5 other models) - Repair. Defect in electrical equipment (generator wiring routing). ■ Defective component: Electrical equipment (generator wiring routing). ■ Condition and cause of the structure, equipment or performance considered noncompliant with standards: In some generator connectors, inappropriate wiring routing causes the wires near the connector to bend, putting pressure on the partitions inside the connector. Consequently, depending on power generation and battery conditions, the pins inside the connector become hot. Continued use may cause the pins to penetrate the partitions and contact adjacent pins, causing a short circuit. In the worst case, this may cause a fire. Published 2025-03-27.
What to do now
(Recall notification number) 外-3972. ■ Corrective action: Add a separator clip to the generator wiring on all vehicles. If the generator connector has developed a fault, replace the complete wiring assembly, including that connector, with a new one.
