Dealers are reminded that from August 31st 2018 it is an offence under California State law to display a new
2019 model year motorcycle without a California Proposition 65 (Calif. Prop. 65) hang tag fitted to the
motorcycle.
Therefore California dealers are advised to carry a small stock of the California Proposition 65 hang tags in
the event that the original hang tags become inadvertently removed or shop soiled.
Additional California Proposition 65 hang tags can be ordered via EPC using part number T3900530.
All new 2019 model year motorcycles are fitted with a California Proposition 65 hang tag (part number
3900530) to the handlebars during manufacture and this must not be removed by dealers unless a
replacement is being fitted.
Hang tags should remain attached to the motorcycle at the point of handover to the customers. Customers
should remove hang tags from motorcycles themselves (they should not be removed by the dealer).
Customers should be encouraged to keep the hang tag and not simply hand it back to the dealer.
Note:
•
•

•

This regulation applies to motorcycles displayed and sold in the State of California only.
Dealers outside of the State of California may wish to leave the hang tag in place; others may opt to
remove it. However, all State of California Triumph dealers are required to display the hang tag on
unsold motorcycles in order to comply with regulation.
A California Proposition 65 hang tag (part number T3900530) is secured using an elastic band looped
over the left hand side of the handlebars.

A second cable clip has been fitted to the harness assembly on the front subframe of Speed Triple S and
Speed Triple RS from VIN 903038.
The cable clip has been added only as an aid to assembly during production.
If you do work on one of the affected motorcycles and find that there is only one clip fitted, you do not
need to fit a second clip.
In the same way, if there are two clips fitted, you do not need to remove one.

Chassis ECM DTCs Flagged Incorrectly

Model Affected:

Tiger 1200 XR

Investigations have found that the following DTCs may be incorrectly flagged on the above model:
• C1007 - Ignition switch ON correlation error.
• C1044 - Front position light undercurrent.
Dealers will find that they are unable to erase these DTCs using the Triumph Diagnostic Tool
This issue is due to an error in the chassis ECM calibration which causes these DTCs to be stored in error.
There is no associated functional impact on the motorcycle and customers will not note any symptoms.
A new chassis ECM calibration is being produced to rectify this and will be released on the Triumph
Diagnostic Tool as soon as possible.
In the meantime, dealers are advised that no action is required if these DTCs are found to be stored on the
above motorcycle.
