2013 Triumph Trophy Se Recall 13V608: Center Stand Mount

Recall 13V608 affects 416 2013 Triumph Trophy Se motorcycles for a left center stand mount that can fracture. Free repair at any franchised Triumph dealer.

Triumph is recalling 416 2013 Trophy Se motorcycles because the left-hand center stand mount can fracture. If that mount breaks while the motorcycle is parked, the center stand loses support and the motorcycle can fall over, increasing injury risk for people nearby; the dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The center stand on the 2013 Triumph Trophy Se is the folding support that holds the motorcycle upright when it is parked or serviced. Its mounts tie that stand into the motorcycle structure, so the stand can carry the bike's weight without shifting or breaking away.

On affected Trophy Se motorcycles, the left hand center stand mount can fracture. That means the support point for the stand can crack instead of holding its shape under load. Campaign 13V608 identifies the fracture point at the mount, but it does not give a separate root-cause explanation for why that mount breaks.

There is no warning sign before failure. Do not rely on a noise, vibration, or visible change around the stand to confirm whether your motorcycle is included.

What's the safety risk?

If the center mount fractures, the center stand loses support while the motorcycle is parked. The motorcycle can fall over and injure people nearby. Avoid using the center stand until the bracket repair is complete. Repair will be free at any franchised Triumph dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2013 Triumph Trophy Se is included in this recall.
  2. Use the Triumph owner letter if you have it before scheduling the center stand bracket repair.
  3. Call Triumph customer service at 1-678-854-2010 with questions and reference recall number 13V608.
  4. Keep people clear of the motorcycle when it is parked until the left hand center stand mount is inspected and repaired.

What happens at the repair

The source remedy says Triumph dealers were to install a new center stand bracket on the left hand side of the motorcycle frame. Because this record does not show a current remedy status, do not treat the final repair as schedulable from this page alone. If your VIN is included, ask the Triumph service desk whether the bracket kit is open for your motorcycle and whether the center stand mount needs inspection before the bracket is installed. The dealer repair will be free once available.
