Triumph has announced that they will be recalling certain models of the 2008 Sprint ST Motorcycles.  They stated that there is a possibility that the single bolt that is used in the 3 positions on the rear suspension drag link assembly can become brittle and fracture.  The bolts are involved are the (1) drag link to drop link bolt, (2) drag link to frame bolt, and (3) drop link to rear suspensions unit bolt.

The head of the bolt may detatch causing the drag link assembly to come apart resulting in loss of rear suspension, increasing the risk of a crash.  Dealers will remove and discard the 3 bolts and replace them with new bolts.  The recall is expected to begin during November 2008.  Owners may contact Triumph at 1-678-539-8782.
