- Fuel tank leak. Recall 13V223000 covers 513 motorcycles from 2012-2013 manufactured between September 2012 and March 2013. The two-layer fuel tank construction may fail causing fuel leaks. Fuel leaks can lead to engine stall and increase fire risk. Dealers replace the fuel tank free of charge.
- ECU software and hardware. Recall 14V009000 includes 2800 motorcycles from 2012-2014. Faulty ECU hardware and software may misread throttle position causing unexpected engine shutdown. This shutdown raises crash risk. Dealers update and install new ECU components free of charge.
- Ignition switch wiring. Recall 20V150000 involves 1585 motorcycles from 2013-2017. Improper routing of the front brake hose may damage ignition switch wiring, potentially disabling headlights, taillights, or causing engine stalls. The defect increases crash risk.

Owners with 2013 TRIUMPH TROPHY motorcycles facing repeated repairs or unresolved recall issues including those related to safety defects may have rights under their state lemon laws. Consulting a legal expert for assistance with these cases could be advisable.
