    Found this on Rideapart.com:

    Both the RS and RR returned for the 2023 model year, but the all-new platform still has some kinks to work out. One such issue pertained to the brake disc bolts and the latest recall calls the radiator fan into question. According to a U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Safety Recall Report, 2022 and 2023 Speed Triples can experience radiator fan failure.

    The issue occurs when operators ride the bikes through “high ambient temperature and slow-moving traffic situations”. These conditions exceed the fan's maximum operating temperature, causing the unit's motor to fail. Should the fan overheat, an instrument warning light will illuminate the dash. If the user ignores the notification, however, the inoperable fan could “result in leaking or spraying hot coolant, increasing the risk of injury.”

    Possibly only for the US market. Personally I would like to have "high ambient temperatures" in Argyll....even for just a short time..a day or two would be nice..

    Received my recall here in the UK on Friday for the fan issue. Got to have a heat shield fitted.

    Not got mine but it is listed for this recall on the Triumph website when I searched using the VIN number. Recall was issued 31 Jan. Pretty poor the letters have taken 3 weeks to arrive, or not.

    Thank you for the info. I don't own one but my buddy does. I'll check that he has received the recall letter.
