Vehicle speed control, Dec 27, 2024
Good morning and thank you for providing an online form for issues with motor vehicles. The vehicle in question is a new motorcycle. I have found that I am often tailgated or followed closely by other motor vehicles on local roads and the interstate. I drive at, or near, the speed limit at these times. While no crashes have occurred, this problem has always occurred with this vehicle. I note that all the rear lights work (driving and brake lights). Yesterday I compared the speedometer reading against phone applications such as Waze, Apple Maps, and Google Maps. The speedometer reads 9-10 higher than the actual speed that I am going. This is the reason why traffic is often held up as I am driving far slower than indicated. I Googled this problem and found that many owners of this brand of motorcycle have the same issue and that the maker, Triumph, is aware of it and states that it is normal. This is unacceptable to me, hence my complaint. The importers of this motorcycle: Triumph Motorcycles America 1070 White St SW, Suite B Atlanta, GA 30310
