On certain motorcycles, incorrectly manufactured rear suspension units may have inadequate weld penetration between the bottom eyelet and the main rear suspension unit body. As a result, the lower eyelet could become detached, compromising vehicle stability. A loss of vehicle stability could result in a crash, causing injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace both rear suspension units.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2004354.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Triumph Bonneville T100, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Triumph: 85 in the register, and 449 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2004.
