    Hello folks,
    I own a new 2023 Bonneville T120, 750 miles (don't get out much).
    I got a recall notice from Triumph, notice SRAN627, Install Alternator Wire Alignment Clip.
    Seems some wires in the connector system could abrade and short (my interpretation).

    Celled my dealer and he indicated that the wiring area is behind the right upper removable plastic panel and behind the brake reservoir and that it would only take about 5 minutes to install the alignment clip. No engine disassembly. He would have to order the clip.

    My dealer is 60 miles away; so, I am investigating if I could do it myself.
    Has anyone attempted to remedy this situation themselves??
    Any help would be appreciated.
    PS: I posted this on the Bonneville and Tech Help forum; will remove one or the other.

    @RickM46 Did you not explain this to your dealer who i am sure will assist you as much as they can. Then next service they can inspect and notify Triumph the work has been carried t.

    Joe, thanks for your suggestion! Yes, great dealership in Battle Creek, Michigan. He did not have the clip but indicated he would order it.

    The dealership is 60 miles away; being a senior citizen, I do not ride long distances anymore; been riding since my first Honda 150 Dream in 1966; the Bonne is my 9th bike over my life; now, I just enjoy the short rides on my Bonne; have looked at the service bulletin and installing the clip is no big deal; would rather do it myself - at this time, don't care about documenting it with Triumph.

    @RickM46 Yes and i am sure if you mention this to the dealer he will be fine about it. Perhaps do the job and send him a picture of the completed work.
