What owners report
The front brakes have developed an issue. The brakes must be pumped twice in order to activate/apply pressure. Regular maintenance is always conducted at Redline Motorsports in Bismarck, ND. Pads have been replaced with brand new pads. Brakes have been bled multiple times. Fluid was replaced. Hoses and master cylinder were inspected. The problem resolves for 2-3 days after a bleed, but then returns. Again, all maintenance and repairs have been conducted at Redline Motorsports in Bismarck, ND.
THE BRAKE LEVER GOES DOWN TO ALMOST TO THE HANDLE BAR ON THE FIRST PULL IN FOR THE BRAKING. I HAVE TO PUMP IT FOR A GOOD BRAKE FEEL AND RESPONSE. IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION YOU DON'T HAVE TIME AND IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. I HAVE TRIED WITH THE TRIUMPH DEALER FOR A FIX AND EVEN TRIUMPH OF NORTH AMERICA, BUT TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE REPLACED MANY PARTS OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM AT MY COST LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION, BUT AGAIN TO NO AVAIL. THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINT CASES IN THE TRIUMPH FORUMS, BUT ALL WITH THE SAME RESULTS OF TRIUMPH DOING OR ADMITTING NOTHING. I REPORTED HERE BEFORE, BUT HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY RESPONSE BY YOU OR TRIUMPH.
WHEN I RIDE THIS MOTORCYCLE, I NEED TO PUMP THE BRAKE TO GET THEM TO WORK AND BRING THE MOTORCYCLE TO A STOP. IT'S VERY SCARY IN A SUDDEN SITUATION WHEN YOU NEED TO STOP AND THE LEVER GOES VERY CLOSE TO THE BAR WITH BARELY BRAKES GRABBING TO SLOW DOWN. IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION, I CAN SEE HOW THIS COULD BE THE CAUSE OF A CRASH. FOR THIS REASON I BARELY RIDE MY BIKE NOW. I TOOK IT MULTIPLE TIME TO THE TRIUMPH DEALERSHIP WITH NO REPAIR AND TELLING ME THE BRAKES WERE NORMAL. MY 1988 HONDA STOPS BETTER WITH 32 YEARS OLD BRAKE TECHNOLOGY, THAN THIS NEW MOTORCYCLE. IN MY 3 YEARS OF RIDING THIS TRIUMPH MOTORCYCLE, I HAVE FLUSHED THE BRAKES MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE CHANGED CALIPER PISTONS, BUT TO NO A
